Sodium nitrate

1.Name: Sodium nitrate

　　Chemical formula: NaNO₃

　　Formula weght:84.99

2.Property:

　　(1) ordinary sodium nitrate: white little crystals or light yellow

　　(2) dry powder sodium nitrate: non-caking, showing loose status.

　　Density:2.257. It is liable to deliquesce, dissolved in water,soluble in liquid ammonia,slightly soluble in ethanol and
　　glycerin,Melting Point:308℃. While being heated up to about 380℃，it will decompose and release oxygen and turn
　　into sodium nitrite,as the heating going on, it will decompose into oxygen,nitrogen and nitrogen oxide. It has strong

　　oxidability and can cause conbustion explosion if being mixed with organic substance,sulphur, sodium nitrate etc.

3.Usage:

　　It has being wildly used in glass industry, dye,dynamite,metallurgy,machinery,ceramic etc.

4.Specification: (Technical Standards:GB/T4553-2002)
