Benzoguanamine

Benzoguanamine (CAS 91-76-9, EC 202-095-6, formula C9H9N5) is a triazine-based amino compound also referenced under the names ENT 60118 and LABOTEST-BB LT00000139. It carries no assigned E-code. It belongs to the flame retardant chemical category and is classified under HS code 29336980.

In polymer and coating formulations, benzoguanamine acts as a reactive flame retardant by releasing nitrogen-based gases during combustion, diluting flammable vapours and interrupting the combustion cycle. It is also incorporated into crosslinked resin systems for coatings and adhesives, where it contributes UV stabilisation and antimicrobial protection alongside its flame-retardant function.

Benzoguanamine is supplied as a white crystalline solid suitable for direct compounding or dissolution in resin systems. The substance falls under REACH registration requirements for EU supply. Procurement quantities are available in standard industrial packaging, and buyers should confirm grade specifications and documentation requirements, including safety data sheets, with the supplier prior to order.
