Ammonium nitrate, NH, is prepared by neutralizing nitric acid with ammonia, or ammonium carbonate, or by double decomposition between potassium nitrate and ammonium sulfate.
Ammonium nitrite, NH, is formed by oxidizing ammonia with ozone or hydrogen peroxide ; by precipitating barium or lead nitrites with ammonium sulfate, or silver nitrite with ammonium chloride.
The normal phosphate, (NH,is obtained as a crystalline powder, on mixing concentrated solutions of ammonia and phosphoric acid, or on the addition of excess of ammonia to the acid phosphate (NH It is soluble in water, and the aqueous solution on boiling loses ammonia and the acid phosphate NH is formed.

 Patent 4239542: Water-soluble flame retarder and process for preparing the same
Therefore, since the reaction efficiency is lowered due to large excess of water, the degree of condensation of the obtained condensed ammonium phosphate is not uniform and a portion of the condensed ammonium phosphate having a degree of condensation of less than 20 and the unreacted urea are increased.
In order to produce the high condensed ammonium phosphate having an average degree of condensation of 20 to 60 and simultaneously to by-produce the urea compounds in particular proportions, urea is employed in an amount of 2 to 4 moles per mole of phosphoric acid.
Therefore, a low condensed ammonium phosphate, especially a water-soluble low condensed ammonium phosphate having a degree of condensation of 1 to 4 is preferably employed as a starting material, because a completely water-soluble flame retarder cannot be obtained when a high condensed ammonium phosphate is employed as a starting material.

 Ammonia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Ammonia is found in small quantities as the carbonate in the atmosphere, being produced from the putrefaction of nitrogenous animal and vegetable matter.
Ammonium salts are also found in small quantities in rain-water, whilst ammonium chloride (sal-ammoniac) and ammonium sulfate are found in volcanic districts; and crystals of ammonium bicarbonate have been found in Patagonian guano.

Typically, the glyphosate component is added as glyphosate acid, an ammonium salt of glyphosate acid (e.g., a mono-ammonium salt of glyphosate acid) or a mixture thereof and is accompanied by small quantities of impurities typically found in and produced during the manufacture of such materials.
In this manner, the ammonium glyphosate may be preferentially driven towards the mono-ammonium salt and the oxalic acid be partially or completely neutralized to form the mono-ammonium oxalate salt, di-ammonium oxalate salt or mixtures thereof to produce a mixture of the glyphosate salt and oxalate salt having the desired pH.
C., a solution of ammonium hydroxide (29% by weight ammonia) is then fed to the blender and sprayed by nozzles onto the mixture of acids to form a reaction mass.

Ammonium-based compounds Ammonium phosphates are believed to act as fire retardants by their ability to increase markedly the conversion of organic matter to char during burning and thus to decrease the formation of flammable carbon containing gases.
Ammonium sulfate decomposes in the temperature range of 400 to 5000F (204 to 2600C) with an associated odor of released ammonia.
Under the effect of moisture, ammonium sulfate will migrate due to the periodic solubilization upon moisture condensation followed by re-crystallization upon subsequent moisture evaporation so that the solubilized compounds are removed from portions of the cellulose.

Phosphates are natural nutrients necessary for plant growth and health, and are the most stable compounds to deliver phosphorus to plant roots.
Phosphates offer a trio of benefits: the application of phosphates prepares the water or cleaning environment then traps and holds the dirt or oils so that it can be rinsed away.
Phosphates are available to animals and humans when plants (and other animals) are consumed and are then returned to the environment through animal and human waste and decomposition of plants and animals.

The world ammonium phosphate industry has been depressed since the early 1980s as a result of a major increase in world capacity beginning in the late 1970s, combined with a significant slowdown in the rate of growth of phosphate fertilizer consumption, its major end-use market.
World phosphate fertilizer consumption is not likely to exceed the 1989 peak until about or beyond the end of the forecast period in 2007.
The fob value of the world ammonium phosphate industry in 2002 is roughly estimated at $3.5 billion.
