General description

Bis(hexamethylene)triamine (Bis-HEA, BHMT, BHMTA) is an aliphatic polyamine. It is a spermidine analog and has been reported to lack the enhancing effect on mitochondrial Ca(2+) accumulation but shows inhibitory effect on the Ca(2+) and Pi-induced mitochondrial permeability transition. Its ability in inhibiting shale swelling and dispersion in water-based drilling fluid has been investigated.
