<p><b>New page</b></p><div>'''Dimethylethanolamine''' ('''DMAE''' or '''DMEA''') is an [[organic compound]] that is primarily used as a precursor to various chemicals in the [[chemical industry]]. It is a colorless liquid that is miscible with water.<br />
<br />
==Chemical Structure==<br />
Dimethylethanolamine is a tertiary [[amine]] with the chemical formula (CH3)2NCH2CH2OH. It consists of a [[nitrogen]] atom bonded to two [[methyl]] groups and one [[ethanol]] group.<br />
<br />
==Production==<br />
Dimethylethanolamine is produced industrially by the [[alkylation]] of [[ammonia]] with [[ethanol]] and [[methanol]]. This process also yields other amines such as [[monoethanolamine]] and [[diethanolamine]].<br />
<br />
==Uses==<br />
Dimethylethanolamine is used as a precursor to several important chemicals in the chemical industry. These include:<br />
<br />
* '''[[Choline]]''': Dimethylethanolamine can be [[methylated]] to produce choline, a vital nutrient that is used in the production of [[acetylcholine]], a neurotransmitter.<br />
<br />
* '''[[Trichloroethylene]]''': Dimethylethanolamine is used in the production of trichloroethylene, a solvent used in various industries.<br />
<br />
* '''[[Paints]] and [[Coatings]]''': Dimethylethanolamine is used as a curing agent in the production of [[epoxy resins]], which are used in paints and coatings.<br />
<br />
==Health Effects==<br />
Exposure to dimethylethanolamine can cause irritation to the eyes, skin, and respiratory tract. It can also cause [[nausea]], [[headache]], and [[dizziness]]. Long-term exposure can lead to serious health effects such as [[liver damage]] and [[neurological]] problems.<br />
<br />
==Regulation==<br />
In the [[United States]], the [[Occupational Safety and Health Administration]] (OSHA) has set a permissible exposure limit (PEL) for dimethylethanolamine at 10 ppm over an 8-hour workday.<br />
<br />
==See Also==<br />
* [[Ethanolamine]]<br />
* [[Diethanolamine]]<br />
* [[Methanol]]<br />
* [[Ammonia]]<br />
