Ammonia 25% 200L
Ammonia is one of the most commonly produced industrial chemicals. It exists naturally in humans and in the environment. Ammonia is essential for many biological processes and serves as a precursor for amino acid and nucleotide synthesis. In the environment, ammonia is part of the nitrogen cycle and is produced in soil from bacterial processes. Ammonia is also produced naturally from decomposition of organic matter, including plants, animals and animal wastes.
At room temperature, ammonia is a colourless, highly irritating gas with a pungent, suffocating smell. Ammonia has alkaline properties and is corrosive. Ammonia is not highly flammable, but containers of ammonia may explode when exposed to high heat.
