Nitrogen atoms are basic, which means they can react with acids to form salts.  This property makes dimethylethanolamine useful as a corrosion inhibitor.  <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">Dimethylethanolamine is also a surfactant, which means it lowers the surface tension of water.
