Isopropylamine, also known as 2-Propanamine, is commonly used in the production of rubber and plastic and as a fuel additive in jet fuel. It is also used in the manufacture of polyurethanes and as a corrosion inhibitor. Common types of failures when rubber is exposed to Isopropylamine include swelling, cracking, and discoloration. Swelling can occur when the rubber is exposed to the chemical for a prolonged period of time, which can cause the rubber to expand and crack. Discoloration is also common as the chemical can cause the rubber to turn yellow or brown.
