  2. Calcium nitrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_nitrate

    Calcium nitrate is a very common coagulant in latex production, especially in dipping processes. Dissolved calcium nitrate is a part of the dipping bath solution. The warm former is dipped into the coagulation liquid and a thin film of the dipping liquid remains on the former. When now dipping the former into the latex the calcium nitrate will ...

  3. Potassium nitrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_nitrate

    Potassium nitrate is a chemical compound with a sharp, salty, bitter taste and the chemical formula K N O. 3. It is an ionic salt of potassium ions K + and nitrate ions NO 3−, and is therefore an alkali metal nitrate. It occurs in nature as a mineral, niter (or nitre outside the US). [5]

  4. Calcium nitrite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_nitrite

    Calcium nitrite is widely used in concrete for high-rise construction, highways, bridges, railroads, airports, and large-scale hydraulics. It also might enable coastal areas to use chloride-containing sea sand in concrete. [7] Calcium nitrite is also used as a heavy oil detergent and in pharmaceuticals, dyes and metallurgy industries.

    1802 K. 1529 °C. 2784 °F. The Gmelin rare earths handbook lists 1522 °C and 1550 °C as two melting points given in the literature, the most recent reference [Handbook on the chemistry and physics of rare earths, vol.12 (1989)] is given with 1529 °C.

  6. Nitrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrate

    The nitrate anion is the conjugate base of nitric acid, consisting of one central nitrogen atom surrounded by three identically bonded oxygen atoms in a trigonal planar arrangement. The nitrate ion carries a formal charge of −1. [citation needed] This charge results from a combination formal charge in which each of the three oxygens carries a ...

  7. Alkali metal nitrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkali_Metal_Nitrate

    The nitrate ion. Alkali metal nitrates are chemical compounds consisting of an alkali metal (lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium and caesium) and the nitrate ion. Only two are of major commercial value, the sodium and potassium salts. [1] They are white, water-soluble salts with melting points ranging from 255 °C (LiNO 3) to 414 °C (CsNO

  8. Nitric acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitric_acid

    Nitric acid is an inorganic compound with the formula H N O 3. It is a highly corrosive mineral acid. [6] The compound is colorless, but samples tend to acquire a yellow cast over time due to decomposition into oxides of nitrogen. Most commercially available nitric acid has a concentration of 68% in water.

  9. Lithium nitrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium_nitrate

    Lithium nitrate is an inorganic compound with the formula LiNO 3. It is the lithium salt of nitric acid (an alkali metal nitrate). The salt is deliquescent, absorbing water to form the hydrated form, lithium nitrate trihydrate. Its eutectics are of interest for heat transfer fluids. [2]
