HCID 166705Ammonium nitrate sulfate ((NH4)3(NO3)(SO4))

Procedure

In a preferred embodiment, ammonium sulfate is added to an ammonium nitrate melt, the mixture is reacted to form the double salt, ammonium sulfate nitrate, and the resultant shear-thinnable melt slurry is then prilled in the inventive process. The resulting prills have excellent strength, sphericity, and storage properties.
