Melamine powder has wide range of industrial application owing to its flame resistance property
Melamine
powder is a well-known
chemical compound that has a host of usages in adhesives, plastics, paints,
whiteboards, countertops, decors & dishes. The melamine used is mixed with
formaldehyde to generate melamine resins. It is widely used as a stabilizer for
cement. Melamine is one of the main elements in Pigment Yellow, a popular
pigment in plastics and inks. Melamine sulfonate is commonly used as a
preservative in paints, adhesives and as a thermosetting adhesive in carpet
underlayment. Sulfated melamine monomer (SMM) is also used as a thermosetting
adhesive in such materials as linoleum, vinyl flooring, ceramic tiles, and
stone. It can also be found in synthetic rubbers and synthetic resins. Also, it
is largely used in industries where it is widely used in formaldehyde molding
compounds. Formaldehyde molding compound has gained a lot of popularity in the
last few decades and is now extensively used in almost every industry across
the world. In addition, it is widely used in the automobile industry for
various parts and components that require heat resistance capability and
flame-proof properties.
The
powder is mainly used in the production of glass products, especially in the
glass industries for developing colorless glass objects and in photoengraving.
In glass items, it is mostly found in the forms of powders and sheets. The
powder is also widely used in thermal insulating materials for preventing the
expansion of thermal energy while preventing thermal contraction, which is
important in aerospace and defense applications. In such applications, it
provides good protection against ultraviolet (UV) radiation. In thermoplastic
materials, mainly in polymers and thermosetting resins, it serves as an added
heat resistance.
With
the wide range of uses and applications, Melamine Powder finds usage in many
areas. It is available in various forms such as powder, sheets, and flakes.
However, the most popular and extensively used form is in form of melamine
resin, a hard, transparent liquid that easily mixes with water.
