Product Description Of Mono Ammonium Phosphate (MAP) 7722-76-1
Mono Ammonium Phosphate (MAP) is an organic compound with the chemical formula CO(NH2)2. The molecule has two —NH2 groups joined by a carbonyl (C=O) functional group.
Mono Ammonium Phosphate (MAP) serves an important role in the metabolism of nitrogen-containing compounds by animals, and is the main nitrogen-containing substance in the urine of mammals. It is a colorless, odorless solid, highly soluble in water, and practically non-toxic (LD50 is 15 g/kg for rats). Dissolved in water, it is neither acidic nor alkaline. The body uses it in many processes, most notably nitrogen excretion. The liver forms it by combining two ammonia molecules (NH3) with a carbon dioxide (CO2) molecule in the urea cycle. Mono Ammonium Phosphate (MAP) is widely used in fertilizers as a source of nitrogen and is an important raw material for the chemical industry.
Product Application Of Mono Ammonium Phosphate (MAP) 7722-76-1
- A stabilizer in nitrocellulose explosive.
- A component of animal feed, providing a relatively cheap source of nitrogen to promote growth.
- A non-corroding alternative to rock salt for road de-icing, and the resurfacing of snowboarding half pipes and terrain parks.
- A flavor-enhancing additive for cigarettes.
- A main ingredient in hair removers such as Nair or Veet.
- A browning agent in factory-produced pretzels.
- An ingredient in some hair conditioners, facial cleansers, bath oils, skin softeners, and lotions.
- A reactant in some ready-to-use cold compresses for first-aid use, due to the endothermic reaction it creates when mixed with water.
- A cloud seeding agent, along with other salts.
- A flame-proofing agent, commonly used in dry chemical fire extinguisher charges such as the urea-potassium bicarbonate mixture.
- An ingredient in many tooth whitening products.
- An ingredient in dish soap.
- Along with ammonium phosphate, as a yeast nutrient, for fermentation of sugars into ethanol.
- A nutrient used by plankton in ocean nourishment experiments for geoengineering purposes.
- As an additive to extend the working temperature and open time of hide glue.
- As a solubility-enhancing and moisture-retaining additive to dye baths for textile dyeing or printing
