Lubricants triethanolamine

Uses Triethanolamine is a pale yellow, viscous liquid. It is hygroscopic with an irritant, ammoniac odor. The industrial and domestic applications of this compound are multiple and extensive. Use includes manufacture of toilet products, cosmetics formulations,61 solvents for waxes, resins, dyes, paraffins, and polishes, herbicides, and lubricants for textile products.41 In the pharmaceutical industry, triethanolamine is used as a nonsteroidal antiinflammatory agent,62,63 emulsifier, and alkylating agent. 

Triethanolamine polypeptide oleate condensate in propylene glycol (Cerumenex) requires a prescription. Its mechanism of action is thought to result from softening of the cerumen plug and lubrication of the ear canal, which is usually achieved in 15-20 min however, mechanical removal of the cerumen plug may still be necessary. Application of this agent is best confined to a physician s office because severe allergic skin reactions occur occasionally. 

Triethanolamine is used as an intermediate in the manufacturing of surfactants, textile specialties, waxes, polishes, herbicides, petroleum demulsifiers, toilet goods, cement additives, and cutting oils. Triethanolamine is also claimed to be used for the production of lubricants for the rubber gloves and textile industries. Other general uses are as buffers, solvents, and polymer plasticizers, and as a humectant. 

When these types of cutting fluids are manufactured, they typically will contain an ethanolamine salt or some form of emulsifying agent that is used to get the oil in solution. Many of the best formulations will contain triethanolamine salts because of their excellent ability to address what the chemist is looking for—typically, lubricity and anticorrosion protection. Typical ethanolamine salts of t-butylbenzoic acid, pentylbenzoic acid, hexylbenzoic acid, and p-butoxybenzoic acid have been chosen due to their favorable characteristics from the standpoint of cost, solubility, corrosion resistance, and load ability [3],...

A wide variety of corrosion-inhibitor formulations use an alkanolamine as one component. Coolant systems and lubricating oils make use of alkanolamines to protect steel parts from corrosion. The triethanolamine and triisopro-panolamine are used in these formulations as the amine or as an amine soap. The alkanolamine soaps are equivalent or superior to sodium nitrite anticorrosion formulations. A monoisopropanolamine-boric acid salt also has been shown to be superior to sodium nitrite for corrosion protection.
