CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
| Physical Description | 2-propanolamine appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a fishy odor. Moderately toxic by ingestion and skin contact. A severe skin irritant. Combustible. The compound contains both the amine group -NH2 and the alcohol group -OH and so has some properties of both. Floats and mixes with water. (USCG, 1999) |
|---|---|
| Boiling Point | 311 to 317 °F at 760 mmHg (USCG, 1999) |
| Flash Point | 145 °F (USCG, 1999) |
| Density | 0.943 at 68 °F (dl mixture) (USCG, 1999) - Less dense than water; will float |
| Chemical Classes | Nitrogen Compounds -> Amino Alcohols, Other |
