Trimethylcyanurate has good development prospects and industrialization needs further breakthroughs

Trimethylcyanurate is also known as 2,4,6-trimethoxy-1,3,5-triazine. Its chemical formula is C6H9N3O3, its molecular weight is 171.154, and its density is 1.212g/cm3. It can be used as a pharmaceutical intermediate. According to the classification of uses, trimethylcyanurate can be divided into industrial grade trimethylcyanurate and reagent grade trimethylcyanurate. The quantity of industrial-grade trimethylcyanurate is relatively large, usually in kilogram or even ton level, and the unit price is relatively cheap; the quantity of reagent-grade trimethylcyanurate is relatively small, generally in milligram or gram level, and the unit price is relatively low. high.

In industry, trimethylcyanurate is mainly used as a pharmaceutical intermediate. 2-hydroxyl can be obtained by heating a mixture of trimethylcyanurate and potassium hydroxide in methanol, followed by cooling and purification. -4,6-Dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazine, trimethylcyanurate has a relatively single use and a small market capacity, which also leads to low production enthusiasm in the trimethylcyanurate industry. high.

In addition to industrial use, trimethylcyanurate is also an experimental reagent, mainly used by major scientific research institutes. Due to the small amount used in the experiment, the sales volume of trimethylcyanurate used in the experiment is small, usually in the gram or kilogram level, the production cost is high, and the price is also relatively expensive.

Triazine derivatives are widely used in medicine, textile, rubber and other industries as antibacterial agents, insecticides, reactive dyes, fluorescent whitening agents, explosives and catalysts. Research on triazine derivatives continues to deepen, and a large number of new Triazine derivatives were synthesized. Trimethylcyanurate, as one of the triazine derivatives, has been used as a pharmaceutical intermediate in the fields of scientific research and drug research and development. In the future, with the deepening of the application research and development of trimethylcyanurate, trimethylcyanurate will The market size of trimethyl cyanate will continue to expand.

Industry analysts said that compared with many other triazine derivatives that have been used in pesticides, dyes, and pharmaceutical fields, Its application development is still in its early stages and is mainly used in scientific research and medicine. Its application scope is narrow and the market size is small. According to the “2021-2026 China Trimethylcyanurate Industry Market In-depth Research and Development Prospects Forecast Report》shows that China’s trimethylcyanurate market size in 2020 will be around 50 million yuan.
