Melamine is a nitrogen-based organic compound that was first synthesized by the German chemist Justus von Liebig in 1834. Melamine is a decorative coating that is resistant to water and mechanical damage.

Melamine is used for:

  • lamination of particle boards and plywood;
  • manufacture of paints and varnishes;
  • production of decorative paper-laminated plastics and plastics;
  • manufacture of dishes.

We were able to separate Melamine from Acrylamide in HPLC on Primesep 200 column using a mobile phase of water with Formic Acid buffer. This separation can be monitored with UV, ELSD, CAD detection techniques.
