Amine value
Amine value is a measure of the nitrogen content of an organic molecule.[1] Although there are similarities with the method it is not the same as an acid value. Specifically it is usually used to measure the amine content of amine functional compounds.[2] There are a number of ASTM analytical test methods to determine amine value. It may be defined as: the number of milligrams of KOH equivalent to one gram of hardener resin.[3] The units are thus mg KOH/g.[4] A number of states in the USA have adopted their own test methods but they are based on ASTM methods.[5]
List of ASTM methods
- ASTM D2073 - This is a potentiometric method.[6]
- ASTM D2074-07
- ASTM D2896 - potentiometric method with perchloric acid[7]
- ASTM D6979-03
First principles
The amine value is useful in helping determine the correct stoichiometry of a two component amine cure epoxy resin system.[8][9][10]
It is the number of Nitrogens x 56.1 (Mwt of KOH) x 1000 (convert to milligrams) divided by Molecular weight. So using Tetraethylenepentamine (TEPA) as an example: Mwt = 189, number of nitrogen atoms = 5
So 5 x 1000 x 56.1/189 = 1484. So the TEPA Amine Value = 1484
Other amines
All numbers are in units of mg KOH/g.
- Ethylenediamine. Amine value = 1870
- Diethylenetriamine. Amine value = 1634
- Triethylenetetramine. Amine value = 1537
- Aminoethylpiperazine. Amine value = 1305
- Isophorone diamine. Amine value = 660
- Hexamethylenediamine. Amine value = 967
- 1,2-Diaminocyclohexane. Amine value = 984
- 1,3-BAC. Amine value = 790
- 2-Methylpentamethylenediamine -Dytek A. Amine value = 967
- m-Xylylenediamine -MXDA. Amine value = 825
