Application<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ethanolamine is commonly called monoethanolamine or MEA in order to be distinguished from\u00a0diethanolamine<\/a>\u00a0(DEA) and triethanolamine<\/a>\u00a0(TEA). It is used as\u00a0feedstock<\/a>\u00a0in the production of\u00a0detergents<\/a>,\u00a0emulsifiers<\/a>, polishes, pharmaceuticals, corrosion inhibitors, and chemical intermediates.<\/p>\n
