3012-65-5 Usage
Chemical Properties
Different sources of media describe the Chemical Properties of 3012-65-5 differently. You can refer to the following data:
1. white crystalline powder
2. Ammonium citrate (various forms) is a white
powdery material with a slight ammonia-like odor.
Uses
Different sources of media describe the Uses of 3012-65-5 differently. You can refer to the following data:
1. Ammonium citrate dibasic is generally used as a component of matrix solution in matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry analysis. It can also be used as both the carbon and nitrogen source to synthesize fluorescent nitrogen-doped carbon nanoparticles (CNPs).
2. Determination of phosphates.
3. For the determination of phosphate, especially in fertilizers.
4. Ammonium Citrate, Dibasic is a flavor enhancer and ph control
agent. it is the diammonium salt of citric acid, being prepared by
partially neutralizing citric acid with ammonia. it is used in nonal-
coholic beverages and certain cheeses.
Definition
ChEBI: A citrate salt in which two of the three carboxy groups are deprotonated and associated with ammonium ions as counter-cations.
General Description
Ammonium citrate is a white granular solid. Ammonium citrate dibasic is soluble in water. The primary hazard is the threat to the environment. Immediate steps should be taken to limit its spread to the environment. Ammonium citrate dibasic is used in pharmaceuticals, and in chemical analysis.
Air & Water Reactions
Water soluble.
Reactivity Profile
Salts, basic, such as AMMONIUM CITRATE, are generally soluble in water. The resulting solutions contain moderate concentrations of hydroxide ions and have pH's greater than 7.0. They react as bases to neutralize acids. These neutralizations generate heat, but less or far less than is generated by neutralization of the bases in reactivity group 10 (Bases) and the neutralization of amines. They usually do not react as either oxidizing agents or reducing agents but such behavior is not impossible.
Health Hazard
Inhalation causes respiratory irritation. Ingestion causes diarrhea. Contact with eyes causes mild irritation.
Fire Hazard
Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Toxic ammonia gas may form in fire.
Potential Exposure
It is used to make pharmaceuticals;
rust-proofing compounds and plasticizers; as a food additive;
stabilizing agent.
Shipping
UN3077 Environmentally hazardous substances,
solid, n.o.s., Hazard class: 9; Labels: 9-Miscellaneous hazardous
material, Technical Name Required.
Incompatibilities
Contact with strong caustics causes the
release of ammonia gas.
Waste Disposal
May be flushed to sewer with
large volumes of water.
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 3012-65-5 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 3,0,1 and 2 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 6 and 5 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 3012-65:
(6*3)+(5*0)+(4*1)+(3*2)+(2*6)+(1*5)=45
45 % 10 = 5
So 3012-65-5 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
