General description

1,5-Diamino-2-methylpentane, commonly referred to as 2-Methylpentamethylene diamine, is a crucial monomer in liquid form with an assay of 99% in the synthesis of polyphthalamide polymers. Its inclusion in polymer matrices improves both thermal stability and mechanical properties.

Application

1,5-Diamino-2-methylpentane can be used as:
  • A key component in the hybrid complex. Its incorporation contributes to the enhancement of piezoelectric and dielectric properties, as well as semiconductor characteristics, making it a significant element in the development of advanced materials with potential applications in electronic devices.
  • An activated amine for CO2 capture. This is attributed to its unique chemical structure, which allows for more effective interaction with CO₂ molecules, leading to higher capture efficiency.
