The properties and uses of ammonium oxide in the field of raw materials for chemical production

Abstract

This paper introduces in detail the properties and uses of ammonium oxide in the field of raw materials for chemical production. Through the in-depth study of the physical and chemical properties, production methods, safety and application of ammonium oxide in the production process of different chemicals, the purpose is to improve the use effect and safety of ammonium oxide, and provide valuable reference for chemical production.

Introduction

Ammonium oxide as a common chemical production raw material, has a wide range of applications in many fields. However, the specific properties and uses of ammonium oxide may not be well understood by many producers and users. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to explore the nature and use of ammonium oxide in order to improve its application in chemical production.

1. ammonium oxide properties

1. physical properties

ammonium oxide is a colorless transparent crystal or white powder, with strong pungent odor. It is readily soluble in water and alkaline in solution.

2. chemical properties

ammonium oxide has strong oxidation, can react with many reducing substances. At the same time, it is also corrosive and toxic, so special attention should be paid when using it.

2. ammonium oxide production method

The main methods for industrial production of ammonium oxide are ammonia oxidation method and ammonium nitrate method. Among them, the ammonia oxidation method is to react ammonia and oxygen at high temperature and high pressure to generate nitrogen oxides, and then react with water to generate nitric acid, and finally react with ammonia to generate ammonium oxide. The ammonium nitrate rule is to mix nitric acid with ammonia and react to generate ammonium oxide.

3. safety
of ammonium oxide
Because ammonium oxide has certain corrosiveness and toxicity, special attention should be paid to safety when using it. Producers and users should comply with relevant safety procedures, wear protective equipment, and avoid contact with skin and eyes.

4. ammonium oxide use

1. chemical production

ammonium oxide in chemical production has a wide range of applications, can be used as oxidants, catalysts, preservatives and so on. For example, in rubber production, ammonium oxide can be used as a vulcanizing agent to improve the strength and wear resistance of rubber; in plastic production, ammonium oxide can be used as a flame retardant to improve the flame retardant properties of plastics.

2. pharmaceutical intermediates

ammonium oxide can be used as pharmaceutical intermediates for the production of some antibacterial drugs, anti-tumor drugs. For example, ciprofloxacin and other fluoroquinolones are synthesized from ammonium oxide.

3. Food additive

In the food industry, ammonium oxide can be used as a food additive to adjust the pH of food and improve the taste. However, due to its certain toxicity, it is necessary to strictly control the amount of addition.

conclusion

ammonium oxide as a common chemical production raw material, has a wide range of uses. However, due to its certain corrosiveness and toxicity, special attention should be paid to safety when using it. Producers and users should fully understand the nature and use of ammonium oxide and comply with relevant safety procedures to improve its effectiveness and safety.
