System of law
There are various synthetic routes for N,N-Dimethylcyclohexylamine, and depending on the type of the raw material, there are a cyclohexanone method, an N,N-dimethylcyclohexylamine method, a cyclohexylamine method, and a phenol method.

Special and use
The main use of N,N-dimethylcyclohexylamine is as a catalyst for rigid polyurethane foams.
N,N-Dimethylcyclohexylamine is a low viscosity, medium active amine catalyst used in refrigerators, sheets, sprays, and in-situ filled polyurethane rigid foams.
The catalyst catalyzes both gelation and foaming, provides a relatively balanced catalytic performance for the foaming reaction and gel reaction of the rigid foam, and has a stronger catalyst for the reaction of water and isocyanate (foaming reaction), and The reaction of the polyol plume isocyanate is also moderately catalytic and is a strong initial catalyst for the foaming reaction.
In addition to being used for hard foams, it can also be used to mold auxiliary foaming agents such as soft foams and semi-rigid foams.
N,N-Dimethylcyclohexylamine has stable performance in the composition, great adjustability and long-term storage.

Binary mixtures of water and organic solvents are described as the aqueous solutions of organic solvents, which are usually spatially heterogeneous on the scale of a few molecular sizes but homogeneous on longer length scales, that is, microheterogeneity.
For the water–organic solvent binary mixtures with microheterogeneity, most organic solvents are miscible with water at any ratio.
Interestingly, some slightly water-miscible organic solvents can also be used to prepare binary mixtures with microheterogeneity.
In this study, N,N-Dimethylcyclohexylamine (DMCHA) was used to prepare binary mixtures with microheterogeneity and CO2 switchability.
With the help of conductivity, Fourier–transform infrared spectroscopy, ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy, and dynamic light scattering measurements, we found that water molecules are hydrogen-bonded together to form clusters over the water content range of 9 to 27 wt %, exhibiting microheterogeneity in the binary mixture.
The size of the water clusters increases slightly with increasing water content.
What is more, the DMCHA–water mixtures can be reversibly split into two phases by alternate bubbling of CO2 and N2, exhibiting excellent CO2 switchability.
The binary mixtures can be used as reaction media for the synthesis of CaCO3 nanoparticles.
Binary mixtures with microheterogeneity can also be formed under high salinity or high temperature conditions or be prepared using other slightly water-miscible organic solvents, opening up more interesting possibilities for binary mixtures with microheterogeneity.
