Frequently Asked Questions

What is the use of guanidine carbonate?

Guanidine carbonate (CAS 506-89-8) is used as a chemical intermediate and building block in the synthesis of guanidine derivatives, melamine/guanamine-type resins, and specialty chemicals. It also serves as an alkaline pH-adjusting additive in industrial formulations. RawSource supplies it in bulk to chemical manufacturers and formulators.

Is guanidine carbonate soluble in water?

Yes, guanidine carbonate is readily soluble in water, which suits its use as an alkalinity source and as a feedstock in aqueous synthesis. Refer to the product SDS and technical data sheet for solubility and concentration handling details.

What is the price of guanidine carbonate?

Bulk pricing depends on purity grade, packaging, order volume, and freight, so RawSource quotes per order rather than publishing a list price. Submit an RFQ with your target quantity and ship-to and we will return a current bulk quote with CoA and SDS.

What is the CAS number and molecular formula of guanidine carbonate?

This grade is supplied under CAS 506-89-8. Guanidine carbonate is the carbonate salt of guanidine; for the higher-purity 99% bis-guanidine carbonate (CAS 593-85-1, C3H12N6O3) see our separate listing. Request the CoA to confirm identity and purity on a given lot.

How is bulk guanidine carbonate packaged?

RawSource ships guanidine carbonate as a solid in bulk industrial packaging such as bags and drums, with quantities scaled to manufacturing and formulation use. Specify your required volume on the RFQ and request the SDS for handling and storage guidance.
