Application

Hexylamine can be used:
  • As an initiator to synthesize defined polypeptides by primary amine-initiated N-carboxyanhydride ring opening polymerization reaction.
  • As a reactant to modify alkanethiol monolayers at polycrystalline gold surfaces via amide bond formation reaction.
  • To functionalize the surface of MWCNT, graphene oxide, and polyurethanes. These functionalized composites materials find applications in absorption, CO2 capture, and as barrier materials.
