Aminoethylethanolamine or AEEA is an organic base used in the industrial manufacture of fuel and oil additives, chelating agents, and surfactants.
AEEA may be produced by the ethoxylation of ethylenediamine in the presence of water. Multiple ethoxylations result in undesirable byproducts, so the reaction is conducted with an excess of diamine. [2]
