- Product Description
Potassium nitrate is an inorganic compound,commonly known as nitrate or soil nitrate,with the chemical formula KNO3.It is a potassium containing nitrate salt,which is colorless,transparent,rhombohedral or white powder,odorless,salty and cool.It absorbs minimal moisture in the air,is not prone to clumping,is soluble in water,soluble in liquid ammonia and glycerol,and insoluble in anhydrous ethanol and ether.
Potassium nitrate is a chlorine free nitrogen potassium compound fertilizer with high solubility.Its effective components,nitrogen and potassium,can be quickly absorbed by crops without chemical residue.As a fertilizer,it is suitable for vegetables,fruits,and flowers,as well as some chlorine sensitive crops such as potatoes,strawberries,beans,cabbage,lettuce,peanuts,carrots,onions,blueberries,tobacco,apricots,pomelos,and avocados.
Potassium nitrate is a strong oxidant that can cause combustion and explosion when in contact with organic matter,and produce toxic and irritating odors.Therefore,potassium nitrate should be stored in a cool and dry place,away from fire and heat sources.Avoid storing and transporting together with reducing agents,acids,flammable materials,and metal powders.
