Application

Triethylenetetramine has been used as an additive to enhance the peak resolution ability of capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) running buffer system to separate and quantitate the monoclonal antibodies by the CZE method. It may be used for the amination of polyacrylonitrile fibers to form novel fiber catalysts for Knoevenagel condensation in aqueous media. TETA also acts as a copper (II)-selective chelator. It may also be used as a growth-orientator in the formation of 1D zinc sulfide nanoarchitectures.
