Aminoethylethanolamine orAEEA is an organic base used in the industrial manufacture of fuel and oil additives,chelating agents, andsurfactants.
AEEA may be produced by theethoxylation ofethylenediamine in the presence ofwater. Multiple ethoxylations result in undesirable byproducts, so the reaction is conducted with an excess of diamine.[2]
