AMMONIUM PERSULFATE DESCRIPTION

Ammonium Persulfate (APS) is a white crystalline solid inorganic compound. A strong oxidizing agent. Does not burn readily, but may cause spontaneous ignition of organic materials. Used as a bleaching agent and as a food preservative.

Chemical Properties

Ammonium Persulfate is colorless monoclinic crystal or white crystalline powder. It is soluble in water, the solubility is 58.2g/100ml water at 0℃.

Storage Characteristics

Ammonium Persulfate is non-flammable, but it can release of oxygen, so it has the role of combustion-supporting, storage environment must be dry and clean, and well-ventilated. People should pay attention to moisture and rain, it should not be transported in rain. Keep away from fire, heat and direct sunlight. It should keep sealed packaging, clear and intact labels. It should be stored separately with flammable or combustible materials, organic compounds, as well as rust, a small amount of metal, and other reducing substances, it should avoid be mixed to prevent the decomposition of ammonium persulfate and cause explosion.

AMMONIUM PERSULFATE APPLICATION

Ammonium Persulfate is a initiator for the emulsion or solution polymerisation of acrylic monomers, vinyl acetate, vinyl chloride etc. and for the emulsion copolymerisation of styrene, acrylonitrile, butadiene etc..

Ammonium Persulfate is also a kind of oxidizing agent:

• Used in cleaning and pickling of metal surfaces.

• Used in accelerated curing of low formaldehyde adhesives.

• Used in modification of starch, production of binders and coating materials.

• Desizing agent and bleach activator.

• An essential component of bleaching formulations for hair cosmetics.
