Description

Cyanuric Acid is a stable, heterocyclic organic compound that serves as a foundational building block for a wide range of industrial chemicals. Its primary commercial value lies in its role as a key precursor for chlorinated isocyanurates, which are essential for water sanitation and polymer stabilization. This product is critical for manufacturers in the water treatment, plastics, and specialty chemical synthesis industries seeking a reliable, high-quality raw material.

Application

• Water Treatment: As the primary precursor for manufacturing chlorine-based disinfectants like trichloroisocyanuric acid (TCCA) and sodium dichloroisocyanurate (SDIC), used in swimming pools, spas, and industrial water systems.
• Plastics & Polymers: Acts as a stabilizer and cross-linking agent in the production of melamine resins, polyurethanes, and other thermosetting plastics to enhance heat and chemical resistance.
• Herbicide Synthesis: A key intermediate in the manufacture of certain triazine-class herbicides, such as simazine and atrazine.
• Flame Retardants: Used in the synthesis of nitrogen-based flame retardants for textiles, plastics, and coatings.
• Specialty Chemical Manufacturing: Serves as a versatile intermediate for producing dyes, optical brighteners, and other fine chemicals.
• Metal Surface Treatment: Employed in formulations for metal cleaning and plating processes.

Quality Control

Our Cyanuric Acid is produced under a stringent quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Every lot is tested against rigorous internal specifications, which typically include assay, moisture content, and impurity profiling. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with each shipment to guarantee compliance with your technical requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from strong acids, strong bases, and oxidizing agents. The product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); ensure containers are kept sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture.
