Molecular Formula:KNO3
Molecular Weight:101.10
Properties and applications:
Potassium Nitrate is colorless crystal or white powder. It is easily soluble in
the water,and the liquid ammonia but insoluble in anhydrous alcohol. It can not
deliquesce in the air.As strong oxidizer,it will burn and explode when mixing
with organics.
Applications:
It is mainly applied in TV glass, glass refining agent and motor light glass;compound fertilizer and foliar spray fertilizer; fireworks and black pouder; drugs and catalyzer; ceramic and enamel;salt both of heat treatment, cigarette paper; concentrating agent;etc.
