RAYCURE TETA — Triethylenetetramine Epoxy Hardener

CAS No: 112-24-3

RAYCURE TETA (Triethylenetetramine, CAS 112-24-3) is a low-viscosity, high-functionality aliphatic polyamine curing agent for epoxy resin systems. Its four reactive amine groups deliver a rapid cure response at ambient temperature, producing densely cross-linked films with outstanding hardness, chemical resistance, and adhesion to metals, concrete, and glass — essential for industrial flooring, structural adhesives, and protective coatings in UAE and GCC.

Applications — GCC, Africa & Beyond

  • Ambient-temperature curing agent for liquid epoxy resin systems — industrial applications across UAE and Saudi Arabia
  • Industrial flooring, self-levelling, and screed formulations for warehouses and manufacturing facilities
  • High-strength structural and civil engineering adhesives for construction projects in GCC
  • Chemical-resistant protective coatings for steel and concrete surfaces
  • Tooling, casting, potting, and encapsulation compounds for electrical and industrial applications
  • Corrosion-resistant coatings for petrochemical and industrial infrastructure in Saudi Arabia

Key Properties

  • Very high amine functionality (4 reactive amine groups) — fast, dense cross-linking
  • Excellent chemical and solvent resistance in cured films
  • Strong adhesion to metals, glass, concrete, and composite substrates
  • Very low viscosity (20–30 mPa·s) — easy handling and precise metering
  • Good mechanical hardness with high thermal stability
  • Short pot-life — suitable for small-batch applications
  • High purity (≥ 97%) — consistent performance batch to batch
  • Shelf life: 24 months — longest in the RAYCURE range

Usage & Recommendations

Typical addition level: 12–14 g per 100 g epoxy resin (EEW 190). Mix resin and hardener thoroughly before application. Pot-life is relatively short at elevated temperatures — work in small batches in GCC summer conditions and avoid heat build-up in mass. Use of RAYCURE RD12 reactive diluent or benzyl alcohol as co-curing agent can extend pot-life and improve flexibility where required. TETA is a skin and respiratory sensitiser — appropriate PPE including gloves, goggles, and respiratory protection must be worn during handling.

Frequently Asked Questions

Both are primary aliphatic polyamines but TETA (CAS 112-24-3, AHEW 24.4 g/eq) has 4 amine groups and slightly longer pot-life than DETA (CAS 111-40-0, AHEW 20.7 g/eq) which has 3. TETA provides a marginally better balance between reactivity and working time, making it the more practical choice for most industrial applications. RAYCURE 238 (modified aliphatic amine, AHEW 76 g/eq) provides significantly longer pot-life than both and is preferred where working time is critical.

TETA is a skin and respiratory sensitiser. Mandatory PPE: nitrile gloves (minimum 0.4mm), chemical splash goggles, respiratory protection (half-mask with organic vapour cartridge in enclosed or poorly ventilated spaces), and chemical-resistant apron. Ensure adequate ventilation — threshold limit value (TLV) is 1 ppm. Follow UAE and Saudi Arabia EHS regulations and the SDS supplied with every shipment.
