Ammonium Bicarbonate By Sino Rich International Group Limited

Ammonium Bicarbonate is crystalline powder, soluble in water, insoluble in alcohol and acetone, aqueous solution appears alkali, specific gravity 1.58,melting point 107.5A C.Ammonium bicarbonate is a white, crystalline powder with a slight odour of ammonia that can dissolve in water to give a mildly alkaline solution. It is however insoluble in acetone and alcohols. Ammonium bicarbonate decomposes at 36 to 60 A C into ammonia, carbon dioxide and water vapor in an endothermic process (as it is with many ammonium salts) and so causes a drop in the temperature of the water. When reacted with acids, carbon dioxide is produced, while reactions with alkalis give ammonia.
