Ammonium Sulphate By Shree Laxmi Corporation

Ammonium sulphate, (NH4)2SO4, is an inorganic salt with a number of commercial uses. The most common use is as a soil fertilizer. It contains 21% nitrogen as ammonium cations, and 24% sulphur as sulphate anions. Wikipedia
Formula: (NH4)2SO4
Molar mass: 132.14 g/mol
Density: 1.77 g/cmA
Melting point: 235 A C
IUPAC ID: Diazanium sulphate
Soluble in: Water

Application:
The primary use of ammonium sulphate is as a fertilizer for alkaline soils. In the soil the ammonium ion is released and forms a small amount of acid, lowering the pH balance of the soil, while contributing essential nitrogen for plant growth. which elevates transportation costs.
It is also used as an agricultural spray adjuvant for water soluble insecticides, herbicides, and fungicides. There it functions to bind iron and calcium cations that are present in both well water and plant cells. It is particularly effective as an adjuvant for 2,4-D (amine),glyphosate, and glufosinate herbicides.
