Melamine cyanurate Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

Melamine cyanurate is non-flammable and has very stable chemical properties.

Uses

Environmental-friendly halogen-free inflaming lubricating agent

Uses

Melamine Cyanurate is a crystalline complex formed between Melamine (M208700) and Cyanuric Acid (C987715), and is unique in that it is a halogen-free flame retardant.

Application

Melamine cyanurate is particularly effective in improving fire safety of nitrogen-based polymers, such as polyamides (nylons) and thermoplastics (polyurethane). It can be used in epoxy polymers and in a variety of other substrates.

Definition

ChEBI: A crystalline complex formed from a 1:1 mixture of melamine and cyanuric (isocyanuric) acid, held together by an extensive two-dimensional network of hydrogen bonds between the two compounds.

Flammability and Explosibility

Not classified

Synthesis

Melamine cyanurate is synthesised by reacting cyanuric acid and melamine in an aqueous medium in the presence of strong mineral acids. This reaction requires the presence of a strong inorganic acid (hydrochloric acid) at a pH not exceeding 1.
