HS v2022 Code: 293361

About heterocyclic compounds; containing an unfused triazine ring (whether or not hydrogenated) in the structure, melamine

HS code 293361 covers heterocyclic compounds containing an unfused triazine ring, including melamine. This class of chemicals is widely used in the production of various industrial and consumer products, playing a crucial role in the global economy. Melamine, in particular, is a versatile compound with applications ranging from the manufacture of plastics and resins to the production of laminates, adhesives, and flame retardants.

Production process

The production of melamine and other heterocyclic compounds under HS code 293361 typically involves a multi-step process. The primary raw material is urea, which is thermally decomposed to form melamine. This process may involve the use of catalysts and various reaction conditions to optimize yield and purity. The resulting melamine is then purified and processed further to meet the specific requirements of different applications.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of melamine and other heterocyclic compounds under HS code 293361 include urea, as the primary raw material, as well as various catalysts, solvents, and energy sources. Specialized equipment, such as reactors, distillation columns, and purification systems, are also essential for the manufacturing process.

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 293361 is melamine, a versatile chemical used in the production of 392010 plastic laminates, 350691 adhesives, and 380610 flame retardants. Melamine is also a key ingredient in the manufacture of 392010 melamine-formaldehyde resins, which are used in a wide range of applications, including the production of 392010 tableware and kitchenware, 392010 furniture, and 392010 building materials.
