Melamine Powder

Melamine powder, alternatively referred to as melamine-formaldehyde resin powder, is a type of synthetic resin powder created through the chemical reaction between melamine and formaldehyde. This material boasts key properties including high-temperature tolerance, resistance to solvents, non-toxicity, and odorless, making it extensively utilized in the production of a range of everyday products. It is particularly common in the manufacturing of kitchenware—such as bowls, plates, cups, and similar items. 

Melamine powder is not a single chemical substance, but a premixed composite powder mainly composed of the following ingredients:

Melamine powder is a thermosetting plastic. This means that once formed under high temperature and pressure, it permanently solidifies and cannot be melted and reshaped. This gives melamine tableware its durability and resistance to deformation.

Pure melamine resin is colorless and transparent. The melamine tableware of various colors and patterns that we see in daily life is made by adding color paste, pigment and decorative paper during the production process.

Industrial raw material

Melamine molding powder is the basic industrial raw material for manufacturing melamine tableware.

Its main component is melamine-formaldehyde resin, which is made by pre-polymerizing the chemical raw materials melamine and formaldehyde, and then adding fillers, pigments, curing agents, etc. and mixing them into a dry powder. It can be understood as the "flour" for making melamine tableware.

Melamine powder is the abbreviation of melamine formaldehyde resin. It is a raw material for thermosetting plastics.

The "melamine tableware" we often talk about in our daily life (such as melamine-like bowls, plates, trays, etc.) is made by pressing this powder under high temperature and high pressure.

In the production of melamine tableware, there are two mainstream melamine raw material powders, namely UMC (Urea-Melamine Composite) and MMC (Melamine Molded Composite). These two powders have different properties and application scenarios, which can precisely meet the different production needs of purchasers and thus manufacture a variety of melamine products.

Melamine powder is a powdered raw material made from melamine compounds, widely used in the production of melamine resin and other plastic products. When manufacturing melamine tableware, the two main types of melamine powder used are UMC (Urea Melamine Compound) and MMC (Melamine Moulding Compound). These two types of melamine powder differ in their properties and applications, each suited to specific production needs.

Melamine is the best quality food-safe plastic on the market, and on top of that, it is also durable, easy to clean and has antibacterial properties. More and more people are discovering the advantages and benefits of melamine, making it the best alternative to fine porcelain and ceramic.

Melamine powder (also known as melamine formaldehyde resin powder) is a thermosetting plastic raw material, mainly used for manufacturing imitation porcelain tableware (melamine tableware).
