    Safety & Health

    Safety
    • Melamine is non-flammable, but heating to above 300°C could result in decomposition, with release of toxic vapors. Adequate ventilation and the use of personal protective equipment is therefore advised.
    • When handling melamine, the wearing of gloves, safety glasses and respiratory protection is recommended.
    • Please refer to our Safety Data Sheet (available on our website) for additional information.
