Product Description
AMMONIUM CARBONATE ARACS is a solid powder with a granular or powder form, featuring an ammonia-like odor and a salty, slightly ammonia-like taste. It is non-toxic but releases ammonia gas that can be irritant, hence should be stored in a cool dry area away from acids. This chemical compound is soluble in water, insoluble in alcohol, and has a purity level of 99.0% or higher. Mainly used in analytical chemistry, pharmaceutical formulations, and as a leavening agent in baking, its alkaline nature in aqueous solution makes it versatile for various applications. With a molecular weight of 96.09 g/mol, AMMONIUM CARBONATE ARACS is available under different grade standards such as Analytical Reagent (AR) and American Chemical Society (ACS).
