METHODS of MANUFACTURING of TRIISOPROPANOLAMINE:
Use liquid ammonia and propylene oxide as raw materials, use water as a catalyst, prepare according to the molar ratio of liquid ammonia and propylene oxide at 1:3.00~3.05, add deionized water at one time, the amount of which ensures the concentration of ammonia water is 28-60% ; 
Liquid ammonia and propylene oxide are divided into two feeds, each time adding half the amount of liquid ammonia, maintaining the temperature of 20 ~ 50 ℃, then slowly adding half the amount of propylene oxide, fully stirred, and maintain the pressure in the kettle Below 0.5MPa, the reaction temperature is 20~75℃, maintained for 1.0~3.0 hours; 

After the addition of propylene oxide is completed, the temperature of the reaction kettle is controlled at 20~120℃, and the reaction is continued for 1.0~3.0 hours. 
Less than 5%, get triisopropanolamine product. 
The method can effectively produce monoisopropanolamine and diisopropanolamine, the process is simple, and the investment cost is low.
