Premium Ammonium Chloride (NH₄Cl) – 99.9% Purity, Food-Grade & Technical

The unsung hero of chemistry and cuisine. This pristine white crystalline powder packs a punch—salty-bitter zest meets industrial muscle. From electrifying batteries to tantalizing taste buds, our ultra-pure ammonium chloride dissolves instantly, reacts reliably, and delivers pro-level results every time. Salty science in a bag—grab yours and spark innovation.


Why Our Ammonium Chloride Dominates

  • Pharmaceutical/Food-Grade Purity (99.9%+): FCC & USP compliant, zero heavy metals.
  • Fine Crystalline Form: <500 µm particles for rapid dissolution and even mixing.
  • Low Moisture (<0.5%): Free-flowing, no clumping—even in humid climates.
  • Versatile pH Buffer: Mildly acidic (pH ~5 in solution) for precise control.
  • Eco-Friendly Sourcing: Synthetic grade, REACH-registered, non-GMO.

All Industrial, Culinary & Creative Applications

1. Food & Beverage Flavoring

  • Iconic salmiak (salty licorice) in Scandinavian candies—Dutch drop, Finnish salmiakki.
  • Yeast nutrient in bread baking & wine/beer fermentation—boosts rise and clarity.
  • FDA-approved (GRAS) for that addictive salty-tang in Asian snacks and electrolytes.

2. Galvanizing & Metal Finishing

  • Flux in hot-dip galvanizing—cleans steel for perfect zinc adhesion.
  • Prevents oxidation in soldering tin/lead alloys → smoother joints in electronics.

3. Batteries & Dry Cells

  • Electrolyte in zinc-carbon batteries—powers remotes, clocks, and toys worldwide.
  • Leclanché cell staple: NH₄Cl + Zn + MnO₂ = reliable 1.5V output.

4. Pharmaceuticals & Cough Remedies

  • Expectorant in licorice cough syrups and cold tablets—loosens mucus fast.
  • Active in veterinary saline solutions and human rehydration formulas.

5. Agriculture & Fertilizers

  • Nitrogen source (25% N) for rice, wheat, and cotton—acidifies soil for alkaline-loving crops.
  • Chlorine boosts plant immunity → healthier yields in chloride-deficient soils.

6. Textiles & Leather Tanning

  • Dye fixative for cotton/wool—locks in vibrant colors that won't fade.
  • Deliming agent in hides → softer, suppler leather for bags and shoes.

7. Cleaning & Household

  • Flux remover in stained glass and jewelry making.
  • Eco-safe toilet bowl cleaner—dissolves scale with effervescent fizz.
  • Snow treatment alternative to NaCl—melts ice without corroding concrete.

8. Pyrotechnics & Smoke

  • Key in white smoke compositions for military signals and stage effects.
  • With potassium chlorate → dense, harmless clouds for photography.

9. Laboratory & Education

  • Reagent for qualitative analysis—tests for ammonia and metal ions.
  • In organic synthesis: Forms HCl in situ for cleaving ethers.
  • Classic volcano demo with baking soda—safe, spectacular fizz.

10. Animal Feed & Aquaculture

  • Electrolyte balancer in livestock feed—prevents urinary calculi in goats/sheep.
  • pH stabilizer in shrimp ponds → optimal growth, zero stress.
