| AMMONIUM CHROMATE Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | Ammonium chromate is a yellow crystalline
compound which can be used in solution, which is yellow
with an ammonia odor. | | Uses | Sensitizing gelatin in photography, in textile printing pastes, in fixing chromate dyes on wool, and as a reagent in analytical chemistry. | | Uses | Ammonium chromate, is used in photography as a sensitizer for gelatin coatings. It's often used in photography, textile printing, and fixing chromate dyes on wool. It is also used as an analytical reagent, catalyst. | | Uses | Reagent for the preparation of a solid heterogeneous oxidizing agent for liquid phase oxidation of alcohols. | | Hazard | Toxic by inhalation, strong irritant. Con-
firmed carcinogen.
| | Safety Profile | A poison. Mutation data reported. See also CHROMIUM COMPOUNDS. A powerful oxidizer. An explosion hazard when shocked or heated. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of NH3, Cr03, and NOx. Incompatible with reducing agents. | | Potential Exposure | It is used to inhibit corrosion and in
dyeing, photography and many chemical reactions. Used as
a fungicide and fire retardant. | | Shipping | UN3288 Toxic solids, inorganic, n.o.s., Hazard
Class: 6.1; Labels: 6.1-Poisonous materials, Technical
Name Required. | | Purification Methods | Crystallise it from weak aqueous ammonia (ca 2.5mL/g) by cooling from room temperature. It loses NH3 on heating to form ammonium dichromate. POISONOUS. | | Incompatibilities | A strong oxidizer and an explosive.
Contact with combustible, organic and other readily oxidizable
substances may cause fire and explosions. Hydrazine,
other reducing agents. Corrosive to metals. | | Waste Disposal | Consult with environmental
regulatory agencies for guidance on acceptable disposal
practices. Generators of waste containing this contaminant
(≥100 kg/mo) must conform with EPA regulations governing
storage, transportation, treatment, and waste disposal.
Addition of a large volume of a reducing agent solution
(hypo, bisulfite or ferrous salt, and acidify with 3 M sulfuric
acid). When reduction is complete, flush to drain with
large volumes of water. |
