General description

Triethylenetetramine is used as a chelating agent and as a curing agent for epoxy resins.

Application


  • Triethylenetetramine in surface passivation: Research on the photooxidation inhibition of pyrite highlights the role of DTC-TETA (dithiocarbamate-triethylenetetramine) in modifying photogenerated carrier migration pathways, indicating its potential in environmental chemistry and surface science (Shu et al., 2024).

  • Poly(urethane-urea) microcapsules crosslinked by triethylenetetramine: An investigation into poly(urethane-urea) microcapsules revealed that triethylenetetramine as a crosslinker can modulate the release of pesticides, providing insights into controlled release systems in agricultural sciences (Wang et al., 2024).

Features and Benefits

Triethylenetetramine is room or low temperature curing agent.

Preclinical data showed that trientine, a copper-lowering agent, re-sensitized cancer cells to carboplatin through enhanced human copper transporter 1 (hCtr1) -mediated platinum uptake. We studied carboplatin and trientine in patients (n = 55; 45 who had failed platinum) with advanced malignancies (Phase

The administration of flaxseed oil or flaxseed oil plus trientine in diabetic rats reduced triglyceride, very low density lipoprotein, and total cholesterol. Furthermore, the combined treatment significantly increased superoxide dismutase activity and attenuated serum Cu2+. The results suggest that the
