The nitroguanidine industry is developing well and Soochow Agricultural Chemical has become a leading domestic enterprise.

Nitroguanidine, also known as peridotite, is an organic compound with the chemical formula CH4N4O2. It appears as a white crystalline powder, is slightly soluble in methanol, ethanol, and acetone, is easily soluble in alkali, and is insoluble in cold water and ether. Open flames and high temperatures are prone to explosion.

Nitroguanidine is an important chemical intermediate that is widely used in medicine, pesticides, chemicals, explosives, automobiles and other fields. According to different uses, it can be divided into industrial grade nitroguanidine and pharmaceutical grade nitroguanidine. At present, nitroguanidine is mainly prepared through chemical synthesis, which uses sodium nitrate, benzaldehyde, urea, nitric acid, sodium hydroxide, etc. as raw materials, and then produces nitroguanidine through mixing, reaction, refining, centrifugation, drying, etc. process.

Nitroguanidine has a wide range of applications. In the pharmaceutical field, nitroguanidine is an important intermediate for the synthesis of the angina pectoris drug Lycosan, sulfonamide antibacterial drugs sulfamidine and sulfadiazine; in the automotive field, nitroguanidine is a gas-generating drug for airbags. An important component of pesticides; in the field of pesticides, nitroguanidine is an intermediate for the synthesis of pesticides imidacloprid and acetamiprid; in the field of explosives, nitroguanidine is an intermediate for nitrocellulose gunpowder and nitroglycerin gunpowder admixtures, and solid rocket propellants. Important components.

Among them, explosives are one of the main application fields of nitroguanidine. Currently, driven by the rapid development of the domestic energy mining industry, the scale of the industrial explosives market continues to expand. Nitroglycerin explosives are one of the important categories of industrial explosives. The continued rise in market demand has driven the continuous increase in nitroguanidine production, and the industry has good development prospects. In addition, with the steady increase in domestic automobile production and sales, the demand for airbags continues to increase. As an important component of the gas-generating agent of airbag inflators, the market demand for nitroguanidine continues to rise.

According to the Industrial Research Center《China’s nitroguanidine industry market trends from 2023 to 2027 Monitoring and Future Development Prospects Research Report》 shows that domestic nitroguanidine production companies mainly include Ningxia Dongwu Agricultural Chemical Co., Ltd., Ningxia Belite Chemical, Nantong Tianze Chemical, Gulang Changhai Chemical, Shandong Sino-Agricultural United Biotechnology, Belite Chemical Co., Ltd., etc. Among them, Soochow Agricultural Chemical is one of the leading nitroguanidine companies in China. The company’s nitroguanidine output has reached 12,000 tons/year. At the same time, the company also has an annual output of 30,000 tons of guanidine nitrate and 20,000 tons of new ultra-fine nitroguanidine. The project has been put into industrial production, and the domestic supply capacity of nitroguanidine will be greatly improved in the future.

Industry analysts said that nitroguanidine is an important chemical intermediate and can be widely used in pesticides and sulfonamides Production scenarios such as antibacterial drugs, airbag gas-generating drugs, nitroglycerin gunpowder, and solid rocket propellants have a relatively broad market demand. my country is one of the major producers of nitroguanidine in the world. The local company Soochow Agricultural Chemical has the capacity to produce nitroguanidine and ultra-fine nitroguanidine on a large scale. Overall, the current domestic nitroguanidine market demand is continuing to increase, supply capacity is continuing to improve, and the industry is developing well.
