General description

Oleylamine (OAm) is a long chain primary alkyamine, that acts as an electron donor at elevated temperatures. OAm exhibits affinity to metals through NH2 functional groups. FTIR spectra of OAm has been reported. Oleylamine acts as strong reducing agent as well as a stabilizer in the synthesis of nanoparticle.

Application

Used in the chemical synthesis and capping of nanoparticles such as Fe3O4, poly (2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate)-graft-poly (ε-caprolactone), titania, mesoporous silica.
