Application

Melamine can be used as a:
  • Reactant in the preparation of melamine trisulfonic acid (MTSA) which is used as a catalyst in various reactions.
  • Nitrogen source for the large scale synthesis of nitrogen-doped graphene (NG).
  • Heterogeneous catalyst in combination with lewis acid ZnI2 for conversion of carbon dioxide to cyclic carbonates.
