MELAMINE CHEMICALS, INC. SUBMITS PATENT APPLICATIONS
DONALDSONVILLE, LOUISIANA, JUNE 7TH-Melamine Chemicals, Inc. (NASDAQ-MTWO),
today announced that it has filed patent applications in the United States
covering what it believes to be significant improvements to its continuous,
high-pressure, non-catalytic anhydrous process for the production of melamine,
which the Company refers to as its M-II process.
Fred Huber, president and chief executive officer, stated: "These
improvements represent an important extension of our M-II technology which
should further enhance the inherent capital, energy, labor and environmental
advantages of that process. Most importantly, our laboratory testing of these
improvements indicates that they can increase the melamine content of our M-II
product from 97.5% to 99.5% plus in a commercial scale plant. Currently, our
M-II product is suitable for use in approximately 80% of all melamine
applications. With this improvement, our new product should be suitable for
all applications."
Mr. Huber went on to say that: "We believe that the estimated capital
cost of implementing this technology is more than justified by the increased
melamine content, which otherwise can be achieved only through a very expensive
recrystallization process. As a result, we believe that the new process can be
incorporated into any new plant designs that we may undertake, and we also
believe that they can be retrofitted into any other high-pressure plants."
Melamine Chemicals, Inc. is engaged in the production and marketing of
melamine, a specialty chemical having numerous industrial and commercial
applications. The Company is also active in the development of new melamine
process and application technology. The Company is one of only two producers
of melamine in North America and one of the three largest producers worldwide.
