Tri-n-Butylamine is a tertiary aliphatic amine characterized by a clear, oily liquid form. Composed of three butyl groups bonded to a nitrogen atom, it is sterically hindered and chemically stable, making it ideal for applications where low reactivity and high base strength are desired.
It is widely used as a phase transfer catalyst, acid scavenger, and neutralizing agent in chemical syntheses. Key industries include petrochemicals, polymer processing, agrochemicals, and pharmaceuticals. Its non-nucleophilic nature also makes it valuable in metal extraction, electroplating, and catalyst systems.
