Molecular Ideas. Massive Impact.

Dytek® Specialty Intermediates are a family of multifunctional amine and nitrile chemical intermediates developed to inspire R&D chemists and formulators/product developers. With Dytek® Specialty Intermediates, chemists can introduce new and differentiated products, discover new routes in organic synthesis, and advance new chemistry.

Our Products

The Dytek® Specialty Intermediates line of products include linear, branched, and cyclic aliphatic amines and unsaturated nitriles.

The importance of asymmetry

The asymmetry created by the stereocenter at the 2-methyl branched carbon in Dytek® A allows for four possible spatial orientations in polymer backbones. This uniqueness disrupts crystallinity - reducing melting point and glass transition temperatures – and helps obtain properties not easily obtained by other methods.
