usage |
reagent for chemical vapor deposition of tin.1 |
air & water reactions |
soluble in water with evolution of heat. the amount of heat generated may be large. |
reactivity profile |
ammonia is a base. reacts exothermically with all acids. violent reactions are possible. readily combines with silver oxide or mercury to form compounds that explode on contact with halogens. when in contact with chlorates ammonia forms explosive ammonium chlorate [kirk-othmer, 3rd ed., vol. 2, 1978, p. 470]. reacts violently or produces explosive products with fluorine, chlorine, bromine and iodine and some of the interhalogen compounds (bromine pentafluoride, chlorine trifluoride). mixing of bleaching powder (hypochlorite solution) with ammonia solutions produces toxic/explosive ammonia trichloride vapors. undergoes potentially violent or explosive reactions on contact with 1,2-dichloroethane (with liquid ammonia), boron halides, ethylene oxide (polymerization), perchlorates or strong oxidants (chromyl chloride, chromium trioxide, chromic acid, nitric acid, hydrogen peroxide, chlorates, fluorine, nitrogen oxide, liquid oxygen). reacts with silver chloride, silver oxide, silver nitrate or silver azide to form the explosive silver nitride. may react with some heavy metal compounds (mercury, gold(iii) chloride) to produce materials that may explode when dry. [bretherick, 5th ed., 1995, p. 1553]. |
health hazard |
vapors cause irritation of eyes and respiratory tract. liquid will burn skin and eyes. poisonous; may be fatal if inhaled. contact may cause burns to skin and eyes. contact with liquid may cause frostbite. |
fire hazard |
mixing of ammonia with several chemicals can cause severe fire hazards and/or explosions. ammonia in container may explode in heat of fire. incompatible with many materials including silver and gold salts, halogens, alkali metals, nitrogen trichloride, potassium chlorate, chromyl chloride, oxygen halides, acid vapors, azides, ethylene oxide, picric acid and many other chemicals. mixing with other chemicals and water. hazardous polymerization may not occur. |

how to do if my cargo fell into the sea
that won’t happen. haha.
if that happened, you are very lucky, you can claim a big money with the insurance
company, we always put insurance on half of you before shipment.
i need the material urgently, hurry! hurry!ok

don’t worry, fast and on-time delivery are the key concerns in our mind. we always bookshipment through reputed liner even their charge are higher to us.
will your company be missing after we pay you in advance
we do chemicals in life! we will never get missing.
is there a solution that our payment are safe, and shipment proceed on time
you can use trade assurance service by alibaba group. pls refer to the link for more information.
we don’t know you at all, how can we trust you
you are always warm welcomed to visit us at any time.
before we start b2b, alibaba has audited our company on-spot and approved our credit.
