ammonium chloride
Ammonium chloride is an inorganic compound, which is a white crystalline substance that is easily soluble in water and has a bitter taste. Ammonium chloride can be produced by reacting ammonia gas with hydrogen chloride. It is widely used in laboratories and industries to prepare other chemicals. For example, ammonium chloride solution can be used as a cleaning agent for circuit boards and metal surfaces, and it can also be used as one of the components of a freezing mixture. In addition, ammonium chloride is used in the fields of fertilizers, pharmaceuticals, and food industries.
Characteristics:White crystals or granules, soluble in water and acidic in aqueous solution. Its melting point is 338°C and boiling point is 520°C.
Uses:Agriculture:
1.Ammonium chloride can be used as a nitrogen fertilizer to provide plants with the necessary nitrogen element and promote plant growth and development.
2.Chemical industry: Ammonium chloride can be used as a raw material for the production of chemical products such as ammonia water and ammonium nitrate.
3.Food industry: Ammonium chloride can be used as a food additive for pickling fish, meat, and other foods, or for making sweeteners and candies.
4.Medical industry: Ammonium chloride can be used to treat respiratory diseases such as bronchitis and pneumonia, as well as skin diseases.
