SOLID AMMONIUM NITRATE
Ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3)is a colorless, odorless, transparent crystal or a white crystal, easily soluble in water, and easy to absorb moisture and agglomerate. Ammonium salt is easy to decompose when heated, and decomposes when meeting alkali. It is an oxidant, used in fertilizers and chemical raw materials.
【Alert】
oxidant, it can support combustion, and it is easy to decompose, burn and explode at high temperature. Irritating to respiratory tract, eyes and skin. It may be harmful to the environment, and it can accumulate in groundwater.
【Precaution】
● Strong oxidizer.When combustible material catches fire, it can help the fire. When mixed with combustible powder, it can react violently and explode. It will also detonate when exposed to strong vibrations. It can explode when heated rapidly. Mixing with reducing agent, organic matter, flammable matter such as sulfur, phosphorus or metal powder can form an explosive mixture.
● Wear a gas mask and a full-body firefighting suit when extinguishing a fire, and extinguish the fire in the upwind direction. Do not shoot water directly to the molten material, so as not to cause serious fire or violent boiling. In the event of a large fire, you must operate in a protective shelter. Extinguishing agent: water, mist water
【Incident Response】
● Isolate leaking contaminated areas and restrict access.It is recommended that emergency response personnel wear dust masks (full face masks) and gas suits. Do not directly touch the leakage. Do not let the leakage come into contact with reducing agent, organic matter, flammable matter or metal powder.
a small amount of leakage: carefully sweep up, and collect in a dry, clean, covered container.
Large leakage: collect and recycle or transport to waste disposal sites for disposal.
【Safe Storage】
● Store in a cool,ventilated warehouse. Keep away from fire and heat sources. It should be stored separately from easily (combustible) combustibles, reducing agents, acids, and active metal powders, and avoid mixed storage. The storage area should be equipped with suitable materials to contain the leakage. Vibration, impact and friction are prohibited.
【Disposal】
● Dispose of in accordance with the requirements of relevant national and local regulations. Or contact the manufacturer to determine the disposal method.
