Glycoluril is an organic chemical compound with a wide range of industrial applications due to its versatile properties. It is widely used as a precursor for important biocides used in water treatment processes. It is also utilized as the starting material for manufacturing tetrachloromoglycoluril and tetrabromoglycoluril, which are further used in swimming pool disinfection and water treatment systems. It also finds its application as an ingredient in the formulation of paint and coatings. It is also used as a crosslinker for hydroxyl-containing polymers and manufacturing other advanced polymer materials. It is also sometimes used in agriculture as a slow-release nitrogen fertilizer.

The primary factor that drives the market for Glycoluril is its demand as a precursor for manufacturing derivatives that act as effective biocides for maintaining water quality in various industrial settings. Its utilization as a starting material in the production of biocides used in water systems, swimming pools, and papermaking also promotes its demand in the water treatment and disinfection industries. Its application as a component in manufacturing paints and durable and protective coatings for industrial machinery, pipelines, etc., also fuels its demand in the paint & coatings and manufacturing industries. Its involvement as a building block in manufacturing macrocyclic cucurbiturils polymers and as nitrogen fertilizers for agricultural purposes further enhances its demand in the polymer and agriculture sector.

Glycoluril production depends on the steady supply of chemical precursors such as urea and Glyoxal. Industrial Glycoluril procurement is largely affected by the variations in the supply, cost, and availability of these raw materials, which also impact its production cost. Compliance with strict local and international regulations regarding its manufacturing, handling, and disposal further impacts its procurement strategies. Additionally, economic trends, trade policies, and geopolitical events also influence glycoluril prices and availability on a global scale.

Raw Material for Glycoluril Production

According to the Glycoluril manufacturing plant project report, the major raw materials for Glycoluril production include Urea-Glyoxal.

Manufacturing Process of Glycoluril

The extensive Glycoluril production cost report consists of the following industrial manufacturing process:

• Production from Gyloxal: This method of production involves the synthesis of Glycoluril by using Urea and Glyoxal as the main raw materials. The synthesis begins with the chemical reaction of urea with glyoxal in the presence of a phosphorus catalyst, which results in the formation of glycoluril. Further, the obtained glycoluril is separated by vacuum filtration to obtain glycoluril as the final product.

Glycoluril is an organic compound with the molecular formula C4H6N4O2. It consists of two cyclic urea groups joined across a two-carbon chain. It appears as a white crystalline powder or solid with a molecular weight of 142.12 g/mol. It has a high melting point exceeding 300°C and is odorless. It is moderately soluble in water (15 g/L at 20°C) and is soluble in aqueous ammonia and diethyl ether but insoluble in acetic acid and ethanol. The boiling point of the compound is 259.66°C, and its density is 1.4926 g/cm³. Glycoluril is known for its four amide-like hydrogen atoms and has a pKa value of 12.91 ± 0.20. It serves as a key precursor in the synthesis of cucurbiturils and can undergo reactions such as nitration, acetylation, and condensation with formaldehyde.
