Cis/Trans 1,4-Cyclohexanediamine

Product Description and Uses

1,4-Diaminocyclohexane is a DuPont developmental product whose structure gives it exciting properties. 1,4-DCH is a liquid cycloaliphatic diamine which imparts high temperature stability, easy processing and light stability to performance resins and coatings. For performance in epoxy systems, request a copy of the technical bulletin "Epoxy Curing with DuPont Diamines."

News! While this product is considered developmental, we now have commercial quantities of the cis/trans product ready to ship. We also have small quantities of 1,4-DCH-trans available in 25 kg containers, and expect to have commercial quantities available in 2007. Consult with your DuPont Customer Service Representative for updated information regarding availability of 1,4-DCH, and get ahead of competition by qualifying this now in your polymer products.
