Ammonium Nitrate
Cas No.:6484-52-2
Function
Ammonium nitrate has a wide range of uses, including:
1.Fertilizer. Ammonium nitrate is an important source of nitrogen fertilizer in agricultural production. The ammonium nitrogen and nitrate nitrogen it contains can be directly absorbed and utilized by plants, helping plant growth.
2.Dynamite. Ammonium nitrate is widely used to make industrial and military explosives, and its properties make it a key ingredient in the preparation of explosives.
3.Fireworks and pyrotechnics. Ammonium nitrate can be used as an oxidizer in fireworks and pyrotechnics, producing bright light and color.
4.Refrigerant. Ammonium nitrate absorbs large amounts of heat when dissolved and is therefore used in refrigerants.
5.Nitrogen oxide absorber. Ammonium nitrate can be used to remove nitrogen oxides in industry or the environment.
6.Pesticides. Ammonium nitrate is used to make some types of pesticides.
7.Oxidizing agent. Ammonium nitrate is a powerful oxidant that is used in the manufacture of other chemicals such as nitrous oxide (an anesthetic) and oxidizers used in rocket propulsion.
8.Water treatment agent. Ammonium nitrate can be used to remove hardness ions and heavy metal ions from water.
In addition, ammonium nitrate is also used in the production of certain products, such as alkali-free glass and pharmaceutical vitamin B.
Caution
Pure ammonium nitrate is stable at room temperature and is not sensitive to shock, collision or friction. However, in the presence of high temperature, high pressure and oxidized substances (reducing agents) and electric sparks will explode, ammonium nitrate can not explode when the water content is more than 3%, but it will still decompose at a certain temperature, in the production, storage and use must strictly abide by the safety regulations.
