Guanidine Carbonate is an organic chemical compound with several industrial applications. It is widely used as a crucial reagent in various organic synthesis reactions for producing guanidine derivatives. It also finds its application as a blowing agent in the manufacturing of polyurethane foams and elastomers. It is often used in the production of ion exchange resins and polymeric materials to enhance its ion exchange capacity, selectivity, and chemical stability. It is also utilized as a flame retardant in the production of a variety of materials, such as fabrics, textiles, rubber, and plastics. It is also used as an ingredient in the production of hair straighteners and relaxers. It is often used as a raw material for synthesizing active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and drug intermediates.

The demand for Guanidine Carbonate is primarily driven by its application as a versatile building block for synthesizing certain pharmaceuticals and specialty chemicals. Its involvement as a reagent in the synthesis of various chemical compounds and APIs, further enhances its demand in the pharmaceutical industry. Its utilization as an ingredient in the production of haircare and cosmetic products also promotes its demand in the cosmetics and personal care industries. Its usage as a foaming agent in the manufacturing of polyurethane foams and firefighting foams also boosts its demand in the plastics and polymer industries. Its usage as a dye fixative to improve color retention of fabrics and as a deliming agent during the tanning process also contributes to its demand in the textile and leather industries.

Industrial Guanidine Carbonate procurement is greatly affected by fluctuations in the cost and availability of raw materials, including dicyandiamide and ammonium chloride, which further impact its production cost. Disruptions in the supply of raw materials, such as dicyandiamide and ammonium chloride can also impact Guanidine Carbonate production and its procurement decisions. Changes in the demand for Guanidine Carbonate from downstream industries, such as chemical, pharmaceutical, textiles, and cosmetics, also serve as a crucial factor that affects its price and procurement strategies.

Raw Material for Guanidine Carbonate Production

According to the Guanidine Carbonate manufacturing plant project report, the major raw materials for Guanidine Carbonate production include Dicyandiamide-Ammonium Chloride-Carbon Dioxide.

Manufacturing Process of Guanidine Carbonate

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

• Production from Dicyandiamide: This method of production involves the synthesis of Guanidine Carbonate by using dicyandiamide, ammonium chloride, and carbon dioxide as the raw materials. The synthesis begins with the melting of dicyandiamide and ammonium chloride together to form guanidine hydrochloride. Further, the obtained compound is reacted with an alkali, which releases free guanidine. In the final step, this free guanidine is reacted with carbon dioxide, which leads to the formation of Guanidine Carbonate as the final product.

Guanidine Carbonate appears as a white to almost white crystalline powder or solid. It is an organic compound with the chemical formula C3H12N6O3. The molecular weight of the compound is 180.17 g/mol. The melting point of the compound is 231°C, and it has a density of 1.25 g/cm³.  The compound has a pka value of 12.5 at 20°C. The compound easily reacts with both organic and inorganic compounds due to its strong basic nature. The compound is highly soluble in water, but it is insoluble in acetone, benzene, and ether. It contains imine and aminoacetal groups as the two functional groups.
