Molecular formula: KNO3
CAS: 7757-79-1
HS:28342190
Appearance: Colorless crystal or white powder
Properties:
The relative density 211, melting point degree 330. Soluble in water, but soluble in ethanol and glycerin, insoluble in anhydrous alcohol. Have strong oxidizing.
1) purity: 99.8%, 99.4% tech grade
2) purity: 97.5% agri. Grade
3) without anti-caking agent
4)low price
Properties: It is colorless and transparent rhombic crystals or white powder. The relative density is 2.109 and the melting point is at 334° C. It decomposes at 400° C and turns into potassium
nitrite releasing oxygen and then in continuous heat turns into burnt potash. It is highly soluble in water, liquid ammonia and glycerine but insoluble in anhydrous alcohol and diethyl ether. It can
not deliquesce in the air. As strong oxidizer, it will burn and explode
