Best Price High Quality 99.4% Industrial Grade KNO3 for Glass, CAS 7757-79-1 Potassium Nitrate Suppliers in Thailand

1. Industrial Grade Potassium Nitrate Introduction

We are one of the largest potassium nitrate suppliers in Thailand. We have exported several thousand tons industrial grade potassium nitrate to Thailand in past 2023.

Industrial grade potassium nitrate, also known as saltpeter or nitrate of potash, is a widely used chemical compound with a range of applications in various industries. It is a white crystalline solid that consists of potassium, nitrogen, and oxygen. With its unique properties and characteristics, industrial-grade potassium nitrate finds utility in sectors such as agriculture, fireworks, food preservation, glass manufacturing, black powder and more.

Potassium nitrate is a strong oxidizing agent that can cause combustion and explosion when in contact with organic matter. Therefore, potassium nitrate should be stored in a cool and dry place, away from flames and heat sources. Avoid co storage and transportation with reducing agents, acids, flammable materials, and metal powders.

3. Industrial Grade Potassium Nitrate Features
 
Solubility: Potassium nitrate is highly soluble in water. It dissolves readily and forms a clear solution.
 
Melting and boiling points: The melting point of potassium nitrate is around 334 degrees Celsius (633 degrees Fahrenheit). At this temperature, it undergoes a phase transition from a solid to a liquid. The compound does not have a well-defined boiling point but decomposes before reaching it.
 
Oxidizing properties: Potassium nitrate is a powerful oxidizing agent. It releases oxygen when heated, which makes it useful in various applications such as pyrotechnics and fireworks.

4. Industrial Grade Potassium Nitrate Application
 

Potassium nitrate (KNO3) is an important chemical substance that has a wide range of applications in industry.

4.1. Glass industry

Potassium nitrate is used as a raw material in the glass industry. Potassium nitrate can provide oxygen and promote the impurities in the glass to be oxidized and decomposed, thereby improving the transparency and quality of the glass. Potassium nitrate can also control the melting point of glass, adjust the composition and properties of glass, so that it has different uses and characteristics. The application of potassium nitrate in the glass industry has improved the quality of glass products, and is widely used in construction, home, utensils and other fields.

4.2. Metallurgical industry

Potassium nitrate has many applications in the metallurgical industry. First, potassium nitrate can be used to extract the metal silver. Silver nitrate can be produced by mixing silver containing ore with potassium nitrate, and then metallic silver can be obtained by reduction reaction. In addition, potassium nitrate can also be used as a refining agent of tungsten, so that its purity reaches more than 99.95%. At the same time, potassium nitrate can also be used in the production of ammonium phosphate and hardening agent preparation.

4.3 Target preparation

Potassium nitrate can be used as one of the raw materials for preparing semiconductor targets. Target material is the key material used to manufacture semiconductor devices, and its quality and purity have an important effect on device performance. Potassium nitrate grains are prepared by hydrothermal method or electrochemical method, and then crushed and processed, high quality potassium nitrate targets can be prepared.
