Preparation of Ammonium dichromate: it can be prepared by chromium trioxide and ammonia water. This chemical is a kind of exothermic reaction. You should control the adding speed of ammonia water. The pH value of the reaction solution should be controlled between 4 to 5. Then after a series of cooling, crystallization and drying you can get the desired product. The equation is as follows: 2CrO3 + 2NH4OH → (NH4)2Cr2O7 + H2O.
Uses of Ammonium dichromate: it is used in pyrotechnics and used as a catalyst and a source of pure nitrogen in the laboratory. In addition, it is also used as a mordant for dyeing pigments, in the manufacturing of alizarin, chrome alum, leather tanning and oil purification.
When you are using this chemical, please be cautious about it as the following:
It has risk of explosion by shock, friction, fire or other sources of ignition. And it contact with combustible material may cause fire. It may cause sensitization by inhalation and skin contact. Besides, it has danger of serious damage to health by prolonged exposure through inhalation. And it is very toxic to aquatic organisms, may cause long-term adverse effects in the aquatic environment. In addition, it may cause cancer and heritable genetic damage. You should avoid exposure - obtain special instruction before use. During using it, in case of accident or if you feel unwell, seek medical advice immediately (show label where possible). This material and/or its container must be disposed of as hazardous waste. Moreover, you should avoid release to the environment. You can refer to special instructions safety data sheet.
