Abstract
Abstract The flowability of stored triethylenediamine is improved by admixing with a flow promoting amount of a C 5 -C 28 acetylenic alcohol. Especially suitable as a flow promoting additive for triethylenediamine is a mixture of 3,6-dimethyl-1-heptyne-3-ol and 3,5,8,10-tetramethyl-6-dodecyn-5,8-diol.
