Melamine cyanurate Usage And Synthesis

Chemical PropertiesMelamine cyanurate is non-flammable and has very stable chemical properties.
UsesEnvironmental-friendly halogen-free inflaming lubricating agent
UsesMelamine 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.
ApplicationMelamine 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.
DefinitionChEBI: 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 ExplosibilityNot classified
SynthesisMelamine 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.
