The raw materials required for producing m-PDA include 1,3-dinitrobenzene, which is synthesized from benzene through dinitration processes.  Thus, the industrial Meta Phenylenediamine procurement is directly affected by the availability and cost of these precursor chemicals, which also impact its supply stability and production costs. The cost of production methods of Meta Phenylenediamine, such as chemical reduction and catalytic hydrogenation, also plays a crucial role in shaping its procurement strategies. Variations in consumer preferences towards natural or organic products can also affect the demand for synthetic dyes that contain m-phenylenediamine, which further impacts its market growth and procurement decisions.

Raw Material for Meta Phenylenediamine Production

According to the Meta Phenylenediamine manufacturing plant project report, the major raw materials for Meta Phenylenediamine production includes m-Dinitrobenzene.

Manufacturing Process of Meta Phenylenediamine

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

• Production via Catalytic Hydrogenation: This method of production involves the synthesis of Meta Phenylenediamine by using m-dinitrobenzene as the starting material. The process starts with the catalytic hydrogenation of m-dinitrobenzene over a Ni/SiO2 catalyst in solution to form m-phenylenediamine. Further, the obtained product undergoes solvent crystallization for the process of separation and purification of m-phenylenediamine to obtain pure m-phenylenediamine as the final product.
