This report proffers the thorough economics of triclocarban production from chlorophenyl isocyanate. The production process is initiated by the chemical reaction between chlorophenyl isocyanate and chloroaniline (here, the reaction can be carried in between 4-chlorophenyl isocyanate and 3,4-dichloroaniline or between 3,4-chlorophenyl isocyanate and 4-chloroaniline). The process results in the condensation of the two reactants, chiefly chlorophenyl isocyanate and chloroaniline, and leads to the formation of triclocarban as the end product.

Feedstock for Triclocarban
Triclocarban is an antimicrobial medication prepared by reacting chlorophenyl isocyanate (mainly 4-chlorophenyl isocyanate or 3,4-dichlorophenyl isocyanate) and chloroaniline (mainly 3,4-dichloroaniline or 4-chloroaniline), that serves as its primary raw materials. The procurement of triclocarban is majorly dependent upon some factors, including the availability of its raw materials (including chlorobenzene, aniline, etc., for chlorophenyl isocyanate and chloroaniline production), along with variations in its market prices and production cost, etc. Additionally, other factors, including the stability in the supply chain, the logistics, trading, and transportation activities, also influence its procurement in the market. Similarly, factors such as the demand for triclocarban in the medical, cosmetics, and healthcare sectors, along with the governmental and financial policies, are crucial for its overall procurement across the world.
