Cas No: 1066-33-7
Molecular formula: NH4HCO3
HS CODE: 28369940
Property:
Ammonium bicarbonate is colorless rhombic or monoclnic crystals or white crystalline powder with anti caking agent. The relative density is 1.58 and the melting point is at 107.5 degree centigrade. It is easily soluble in water, readily forming an alkaline solution. (The density of saturated solution is 11.9g/100ml a 0 degree centigrade an 27g/100ml t 30 degree centigrade. ) The PH value of 0.08% solution is 7.8. It is soluble in gycerin. It decomposes int carbon dioxide ad mmonia. Its hygroscopicity is strng andafter moisture-absorbing it gives off the irritating smell of ammonia which is not present when th material is dry. It easil effloresces in the air.
