Ammonium Chloride Fine Crystals AR 500g

Ammonium Chloride Fine Crystals AR (Analytical Reagent) are primarily used in laboratories for precise work, such as in cooling baths, as a reagent in chemical reactions, and in analytical procedures. Its high purity makes it suitable for applications like cell lysis, buffer solutions, and in electrochemical processes, but it is not for food or direct medicinal use. Laboratory and analytical uses

• Cooling baths: Dissolving ammonium chloride in water is an endothermic process, creating low temperatures for experiments.
• Chemical reagent: It serves as a source of ammonia or ammonium ions for various organic and inorganic reactions.
• Analytical chemistry: The high purity (AR grade) is essential for accurate and precise measurements and tests.
• Cell lysis: It is used in biological sample preparation to break down red blood cells.
• Buffer solutions: It is used to create buffer solutions, particularly with ammonia.
• Electrochemical processes: It functions as an electrolyte in devices like Leclanche cells (a type of dry battery).

Other industrial and research uses (for non-AR grades or different applications)

• Metalwork: Acts as a flux in soldering, tinning, and galvanizing to remove metal oxides.
• Textiles: Used in dyeing and printing processes.
• Agriculture: A component of nitrogenous fertilizers.
• Pharmaceuticals: Used as an expectorant and in certain medications.

Note: The “AR” designation means this grade is for laboratory use only and is not suitable for food or direct medicinal applications, which require different grades (e.g., Food Grade or USP).

NB: This grade is not Food Grade but for Laboratory use only.

Ammonium chloride is a white crystalline solid that’s highly soluble in water.

Ammonium chloride (NH4Cl) has many uses in laboratories, including:

– Cooling baths: It’s used to create low temperatures in cooling baths.
– Other laboratory uses: It can also be used in aqueous solutions in Leclanche cells.

Ammonium chloride is also used in many other applications, including:

Food: the food grade one is used as a yeast nutrient in bread making.
Fertilizer: It’s used as a nitrogenous fertilizer in salty and alkaline soils, and in low-lying areas where rice is grown.
Metalwork: It’s used as a flux in tinning, galvanizing, and soldering to remove oxide coatings from metals.
Dry cells: It’s used as an electrolyte in dry cells.
