This is a 200 gram Sodium Nitrate(chile saltpetre)-laboratory grade.We hold a quality certificate -this is available upon request.
Appearance: white solid.
Sodium nitrate is the chemical compound with the formula NaNO3. This salt, also known as Chile saltpeter or Peru saltpeter (due to the large deposits found in each country) to distinguish it from ordinary saltpeter, potassium nitrate, is a white solid which is very soluble in water. The mineral form is also known as nitratine or soda niter.
Sodium nitrate is used as an ingredient in fertilizers, pyrotechnics, as an ingredient in smoke bombs, as a food preservative, and as a solid rocket propellant, as well as in glass and pottery enamels. The compound has been mined extensively for those purposes.

USES |
Sodium Nitrate is an excellent fertilizer widely used in agriculture. Useful also in the glass industry, metallurgy. In the food industry is used as a preservative added.
It can be used in the production of nitric acid by combining it with sulfuric acid and subsequent separation through fractional distillation of the nitric acid, leaving behind a residue of sodium bisulfate.
Sodium nitrate is used together with potassium nitrate for heat storage and, more recently, for heat transfer in solar power plants.
It is also used in the wastewater industry for facultative microorganism respiration. Nitrosomonas, a genus of microorganisms, consumes nitrate in preference to oxygen, enabling it to grow more rapidly in the wastewater to be treated
