Ammonium sulphamate by Research Lab Fine Chem Industries is a high grade reagent. Also known as ammonium amidosulfonate, this is a salt of ammonia and sulfamic acid. This reagent is available as a white crystalline powder which is very soluble in water, soluble in glycerol, glycol, formamide and insoluble in methanol, ether and n-octanol. It has a melting point at 131 C. Ammonium sulfamate is considered slightly toxic to humans and animals and is environmentally friendly. CAS No.: 7783-13-3 Quantity Provided: 500 gm per bottle Molecular Formula: NH4SO3NH2 Molecular Weight: 114.12 Assay: Minimum 98 %Ammonium sulphamate has a variety of applications in chemical and biological sectors. It is widely used as a herbicide, effective in controlling tough woody weeds, tree stumps and brambles. It is also used as a compost accelerator, to break down the tougher and woodier weeds put onto the compost heap. Ammonium sulfamate is a valuable flame retardant, and is sometimes used along with magnesium sulphate or ammonium sulphate to enhance its properties. Industrially, ammonium sulfamate is employed as a flame retardant, a plasticiser and in electro-plating. This reagent is suitable for industrial synthesis of products and research applications.
