Solid Nitric Acid
1. Introduction
Solid ammonium nitrate is a white or yellow oxidant,which can be divided in to crystalloid, granule or porous granule. As a main material of industry explosives , it also can be used in medicine,nitrate and the nitro composite salt manufacturing. Currently, our company has two production lines --- crystalloid ammonium nitrate production line with annual ratified production capacity 62,500 tons and tower granulation ammonium nitrate production line with annual ratified production capacity 200,000 tons.

3. Notes
(1) Can not be transported together with acid, strong reducing agent, flammable or combustible
, active metal powder and any others. Be stored in a clean and dry environment with a tarpaulin or roof on the vehicle.
(2)With thermal decomposition and explosive of ammonium nitrate, storage should be isolated from the heat source and direct sunlight. If it is on fire, put out with large number of water.
(3) Handle with care during transportation and storage.
(4) There must have fire-fighting equipments in storage.
