4,4'-Diaminodiphenylmethane is a chemical compound from the group of diphenylmethane derivatives . Technical diaminodiphenylmethane consists of a mixture of isomeric compounds ( 2,2'-diaminodiphenylmethane , 2,4'-diaminodiphenylmethane ) and other amines .
Extraction and presentation
4,4'-Diaminodiphenylmethane is produced by a condensation reaction of formaldehyde with aniline in the presence of hydrochloric acid.
use
4,4'-Diaminodiphenylmethane is used as an intermediate in the production of synthetic resins (hardeners for epoxy resins), plastics, adhesives, dyes and vulcanization accelerators. Most of the amount produced (around 400,000 t per year in 1993) is used to produce 4,4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate for the production of polyurethane (through reaction with phosgene ). After reductive cleavage of azo groups, the substance must not be released from textiles or leather products that come into direct contact with human skin for a longer period of time (Appendix 1 of the Consumer Goods Ordinance ).
safety instructions
4,4'-Diaminodiphenylmethane is classified as a carcinogen. The substance was added to the candidate list of substances of very high concern (SVHC) on October 28, 2008 .
