Hi Guys,

I am pulling together a study here in the UK on the Advantages & Disadvantages of the Inhibitor Diethylhydroxylamine (DEHA)?

We are looking at different manufacturing processes that it would be used, mainly to get a true idea of its best uses.

Some of these applications would be:

° Polymerization

DEHA's powerful free radical scavenging ability coupled with its moderate volatility and relatively low order of acute toxicity makes it an ideal "popcorn Polymer "/ vapour phase inhibitor for olefins or styrene monomer storage & recovery system.Because of its capability of inhibiting polymerization in the gas phase, DEHA is finding use as an in-process inhibitor for the production of styrene, divinylbenzene, butadiene, isoprene and other monomers containing a reactive double bond.

° Photographic Chemicals

DEHA has reducing property, so it is used as an auxiliary chemical photographic developer for instant colour photos. Also, DEHA is effective in stabilization of image and in the prevention of discolouration.

° Decolourisation
Phenol and Phenolic antioxidants can be decolourised with DEHA.

° Inhibitors
DEHA can be used as a colour stabiliser of monoalkyl phenol.

° Silicon Rubber
DEHA can be used as a raw material for the hardener of the Silicon Sealant and coating agent.

Any thoughts are welcome, as I am looking to learn about this product.
