Ammonia
Ammonia Solution, Ammonium Hydroxide Solution, Aqueous Ammonia
Ammonia Solution is a clear, colourless liquid with the chemical formulation NH3. Also referred to as ammonium hydroxide solution, aqueous ammonia or liquid ammonia, it is available from Monarch Chemicals in a variety of dilutions and grades. It is one of the most produced inorganic chemicals and has a diverse range of uses across a large number of industries.
Ammonium hydroxide is an ingredient in many household and industrial cleaners primarily window and glass cleaners, multipurpose cleaners, oven and drain cleaners. It is excellent at breaking down greases and stains, and, due to the speed of evaporation, it offers a streak free finish.
Ammonia is also used in the production of fertilisers, in particular ammonium nitrate, which distributes and maintains a healthy balance of essential nutrients in the soil – in this instance nitrogen.
Other uses of ammonia include:
- Paper and pulp industry for pulping wood and as a casein dispersant
- Food and drink industries as an additive (ammonium hydroxide) and antimicrobial agent
- Rubber manufacture for stabilisation and to prevent coagulation
- For the reduction of Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) in flue gases
