Description

N-Methylaniline (CAS 100-61-8) is a secondary aromatic amine used as a chemical intermediate and functional additive in industrial manufacturing. It supports dye synthesis, curing reactions, and stabilization processes across several manufacturing sectors.

In pigment and colorant production, it acts as a key building block for azo dyes and other synthetic colorants used in printing inks and packaging coatings. Polymer formulators use it as a crosslinking agent and curing accelerator.

This material is utilized in resin systems, improving network density and end-product durability. In personal care manufacturing, it contributes to the synthesis of intermediates used in hair dye formulations and oxidative colorant systems.

Its antioxidant function also supports stabilization of certain polymer compounds during processing, extending material service life. N-Methylaniline is supplied as a liquid at standard commercial purity levels for various applications.

The product typically ranges from 98% to 99%+ for technical and synthesis-grade applications. Technical grade is the primary market specification, suited for industrial intermediate and formulation use across global supply chains.

Packaging is available in drums and intermediate bulk containers (IBCs) to support both laboratory-scale procurement and bulk industrial supply. This ensures flexible logistics for manufacturers requiring consistent chemical quality.
