Abstract
Hydrolysis of cyanuric acid, melamine, melem, atrazine and melamine-fo rmaldehyde resin was found to be catalyzed by an Al2O3 catalyst. The r eactions occur irreversibly with cleavage of the s-triazine ring betwe en 240 and 450 degrees C. The s-triazine-ring is hydrolyzed to ammonia and carbon dioxide, and the substituted groups to the corresponding m olecules by addition of hydrogen.
