Chelora Chemicals UAE supplies Octylamine (CAS 111-86-4) as a 99% pure liquid to surfactant, corrosion-inhibitor, lubricant-additive, agrochemical and mining-reagent manufacturers across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah and all seven Emirates, against documented industrial end use, with batch-wise COA and compliant dangerous-goods delivery.
Octylamine (1-octanamine) is a straight-chain primary amine with eight carbons, a colourless to pale yellow liquid with a fishy, ammonia-like odour. It is hydrophobic, only sparingly soluble in water, and mixes with most organic solvents.
It is used to make surfactants and quaternary ammonium compounds, corrosion inhibitors, lubricant and fuel additives, flotation collectors, agrochemical and pharmaceutical intermediates, textile chemicals and rubber chemicals.
As an established chemical supplier in the UAE, Chelora Chemicals sources Octylamine from approved manufacturers with consistent assay and low levels of dioctylamine, other amines and water, and delivers it to customers in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah, Fujairah and Umm Al Quwain, as well as export customers in Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, Africa and South Asia.

Typically sealed HDPE or lined steel drums, with IBCs and ISO tanks for larger volumes, all labelled for flammable and corrosive dangerous-goods transport. Containers must be compatible with amines.
The minimum order depends on packing and current stock. We handle everything from a few drums or small packs for trials and lab qualification up to full container loads.
Store in tightly closed, compatible containers in a cool, well-ventilated place away from heat, ignition sources, acids and oxidisers. Avoid copper, zinc and aluminium fittings.
Yes. Octylamine is flammable, corrosive to skin, eyes and airways, and harmful if inhaled. It is transported as a dangerous good. Use full protective equipment in closed systems and follow the SDS.
Yes. We export from the UAE to Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, East and West Africa, South Asia and other markets on EXW, FOB, CFR, CIF, DAP or DDP terms, subject to the import rules of each destination.
Yes. Samples are available for qualification on request, together with the COA and SDS, so your QC or R&D team can approve the material before a commercial order.
Both are C₈ primary amines, but n-octylamine is straight-chain and 2-ethylhexylamine is branched, which changes melting point, solubility, packing at interfaces and the properties of derived products. Specifications usually name one of them.
Long-chain amines are toxic to aquatic organisms and are poorly soluble in water. Spills and wash water should be collected and treated as hazardous waste instead of being sent to drains.
