Applications

Is a linear aliphatic diamine that can be synthesized by reacting ethanolamine and ammonia in the presence of zeolite catalyst. Its effect as an allergen has been investigated. It participates in the synthesis of metal chalcogenides and thiogallates. Used as a reagent to prepare various metal ion complexes. For instance, reacts with chromium(II) salts forms a Cr(II)/DAE complex, which is used as an efficient reducing agent for the reduction of primary alkyl halides to alkanes, and aryl bromides or iodides to arenes. This complex is also used to reduce ß-substituted alkyl halides and epoxides to alkenes. Can also be used in the following reduction reactions DAE/Borane (1:1) complex is used as a highly selective reducing agent for the conversion of cinnamaldehyde to cinnamyl alcohol. DAE/Li complex is used as an efficient reagent for the reduction of alkenes, aromatic hydrocarbons, phenols, and alcohols. Used in the following process synthesis of nucleus pulposus (NP)-like collagen-glycosaminoglycans (CG) core, surface modification of epoxy-activated cryogel, alteration of the surface of carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) to generate CNPs-ethylene. Used in the following studies surface modification of triazolate-bridged metal-organic framework, as a solvent in the synthesis of ZnS (zinc sulfide) and ZnSe (zinc selenium) precursors by solvothermal process, as a reactant in the synthesis of Pd/C-ethylenediamine complex catalyst, as a chelating agent in the synthesis of ß-Co(OH)2 nanocrystals, synthesis of ethylenediamine-templated iron arsenates and fluoroarsenates, as a template agent and coordination agent in the synthesis of CdS (cadmium sulfide) nanocrystals.

Exemptions

§ 173.154 Exceptions for Class 8 (corrosive materials).

(a) General. Exceptions for hazardous materials shipments in the following paragraphs are permitted only if this section is referenced for the specific hazardous material in the § 172.101 table of this subchapter.

(b) Limited quantities. Limited quantities of corrosive material (Class 8) in Packing Groups II and III are excepted from labeling requirements, unless the material is offered for transportation or transported by aircraft and are excepted from the specification packaging requirements of this subchapter when packaged in combination packaging’s according to this paragraph. For transportation by aircraft, the package must also conform to the applicable requirements of § 173.27 of this part (e.g., authorized materials, inner packaging quantity limits and closure securement) and only hazardous material authorized aboard passenger-carrying aircraft may be transported as a limited quantity. A limited quantity package that conforms to the provisions of this section is not subject to the shipping paper requirements of subpart C of part 172 of this subchapter, unless the material meets the definition of a hazardous substance, hazardous waste, marine pollutant, or is offered for transportation and transported by aircraft or vessel and is eligible for the exceptions provided in § 173.156 of this part. In addition, shipments of limited quantities are not subject to subpart F (Placarding) of part 172 of this subchapter. Each package must conform to the packaging requirements of subpart B of this part and may not exceed 30 kg (66 pounds) gross weight. Except for transportation by aircraft, the following combination packaging’s are authorized:

(1) For corrosive materials in Packing Group II, inner packaging’s not over 1.0 L (0.3 gallon) net capacity each for liquids or not over 1.0 kg (2.2 pounds) net capacity each for solids, packed in a strong outer packaging.

(2) For corrosive materials in Packing Group III, inner packaging’s not over 5.0 L (1.3 gallons) net capacity each for liquids or not over 5.0 kg (11 lbs.) net capacity each for solids, packed in a strong outer packaging.
