After the strongly exothermic reaction, the reaction
products are recov ered and separated by flashing off and
recycling the ammonia, and then fractionating the amine
products.
Monomethylamine is used in explosives, insecticides,
and surfactants. Dimethylamine is used for the
manufacture of dimethylformamide and acetamide,
pesticides, and water treatment. Trimethylamine is used to form
choline chloride and to make biocides and slimicides.
