Sourcing Melamine? ChemicalDekho connects you with the sole domestic producer, GSFC, and major importers like Qatar Melamine. Secure high-purity crystals for laminate and thermoset resin manufacturing.
Melamine (CAS 108-78-1) is the core raw material for Melamine-Formaldehyde (MF) resins. These resins are valued for their hardness, heat resistance, and scratch resistance, making them ideal for laminates (Sunmica) and dinnerware. It is also used as a nitrogen-based flame retardant in foams and as a superplasticizer in concrete.
Listings verify particle size and purity, catering to both the furniture laminate industry and high-end technical plastic molding.

Melamine is a chemical powder. When reacted with Formaldehyde, it becomes Melamine-Formaldehyde Resin, which is a type of thermoset plastic used in plates and laminates.
Yes, once cured into a plate, it is safe for cold/room temp food. However, melamine plates should NOT be microwaved as they can release trace chemicals when overheated.
Yes, GSFC (Gujarat State Fertilizers & Chemicals) is the only manufacturer of Melamine in India. All other supply is imported.
Melamine has very high nitrogen content. When it burns, it releases nitrogen gas which smothers the flame, making it a safe, halogen-free flame retardant.
