  2. Sodium nitrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_nitrate

    Sodium nitrate has also been investigated as a phase-change material for thermal energy recovery, owing to its relatively high melting enthalpy of 178 J/g. [14] [15] Examples of the applications of sodium nitrate used for thermal energy storage include solar thermal power technologies and direct steam generating parabolic troughs. [14]

  3. Peroxynitrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peroxynitrate

    However, there is a report that the chemist Sebastian Moiseevich Tanatar produced sodium peroxynitrate octahydrate (NaNO 3 ·H 2 O 2 ·8H 2 O) by evaporating a solution of sodium nitrate and hydrogen peroxide until crystallisation begins and then mixing with alcohol to form crystals of the octahydrate.

  4. Peroxynitrite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peroxynitrite

    Approximately 66% of the time, these two radicals recombine to form carbon dioxide and nitrate. The other 33% of the time, these two radicals escape the solvent cage and become free radicals. It is these radicals ( carbonate radical and nitrogen dioxide ) that are believed to cause peroxynitrite-related cellular damage.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HAZMAT_Class_5_Oxidizing...

    For materials containing no more than 1.0 percent hydrogen peroxide, the available oxygen, as calculated using the equation in paragraph (a)(4)(ii) of this section, is not more than 1.0 percent, or For materials containing more than 1.0 percent but not more than 7.0 percent hydrogen peroxide, the available oxygen content (O a ) is not more than ...

  6. International Numbering System for Food Additives - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Numbering...

    The International Numbering System for Food Additives (INS) is an international naming system for food additives, aimed at providing a short designation of what may be a lengthy actual name. [1] It is defined by Codex Alimentarius , the international food standards organisation of the World Health Organization (WHO) and Food and Agriculture ...

  7. Sodium nitrite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_nitrite

    One method uses molten sodium nitrate as the salt, and lead which is oxidized, while a more modern method uses scrap iron filings to reduce the nitrate. [4] [84] NaNO 3 + Pb → NaNO 2 + PbO. A more commonly used method involves the general reaction of nitrogen oxides in alkaline aqueous solution, with the addition of a catalyst. The exact ...

  8. Curing salt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curing_salt

    Also called Pink curing salt #2. It contains 6.25% sodium nitrite, 4% sodium nitrate, and 89.75% table salt. [4] The sodium nitrate found in Prague powder #2 gradually breaks down over time into sodium nitrite, and by the time a dry cured sausage is ready to be eaten, no sodium nitrate should be left. [3]

  9. Nitrous oxide - Wikipedia

    Food-grade N 2 O whipped-cream chargers. The gas is approved for use as a food additive (E number: E942), specifically as an aerosol spray propellant. It is commonly used in aerosol whipped cream canisters and cooking sprays. The gas is extremely soluble in fatty compounds.
