Feedstock for Ammonium Chlorate

The manufacturing of ammonium chlorate uses chloric acid, ammonia, ammonium nitrate, and sodium chlorate as the major feedstock. The changes in the market dynamics of these raw materials affect its production.

The procurement of chloric acid is driven by factors like raw material costs, changes in supply and demand, regulatory compliance, etc. The cost of raw materials like hydrochloric acid (the changes in its demand from sectors like steel pickling and chemical manufacturing affect its procurement) and chlorine (the cost and availability of raw materials like sodium chloride affects chlorine procurement) impact its production costs. The changes in demand from industries like electronics, aerospace, and pharmaceuticals impact its prices and availability. The compliance with environmental and safety regulations in the production and use of perchloric acid further affects its procurement strategies.

Ammonia is another major feedstock used in the production of ammonium chlorate. The changes in the price and availability of its major raw material, i.e., natural gas (the variation in seasonal demands affects its procurement), affect its production costs. The changes in its demand in agriculture and industrial applications affect its prices and procurement strategies. Its handling and storage require proper logistics and inventory management, which adds up to its procurement costs.

The sourcing of ammonium nitrate (another raw material used in the production of ammonium chlorate) is affected by the cost of raw materials like ammonia and nitric acid (the changes in the price and availability of its raw materials like ammonia and natural gas affect its procurement). The changes in its demand in downstream industries like agriculture, mining and construction, and medical applications affect its supply and prices.

The procurement of sodium chlorate is driven by factors like raw material availability and cost, energy costs, market demand, etc. The changes in the prices and availability of its raw material, sodium chloride (the changes in its demand in food processing, chemical manufacturing, and de-icing impact its procurement), affect its production costs. Its production involves electrolysis that requires good amounts of electrical power, and changes in energy prices affect its procurement. The changes in its demand in pulp and paper, water treatment, agriculture, chemical manufacturing, and leather and dye industries further impact its sourcing.

Manufacturing Process

This report comprises a thorough value chain evaluation for Ammonium Chlorate manufacturing and consists of an in-depth production cost analysis revolving around industrial Ammonium Chlorate manufacturing.

• From Chloric Acid and Ammonia: The feedstock for this process includes chloric acid and ammonia.

The manufacturing process of ammonium chlorate involves a reaction between chloric acid and ammonia. In this process, chloric acid reacts with ammonia at a carefully controlled temperature, forming ammonium chlorate.  The product is separated and purified to get pure ammonium chlorate as the final product.

• From Ammonium Nitrate and Sodium Chlorate: The feedstock for this process includes ammonium nitrate and sodium chlorate.

The production process of ammonium chlorate involves a reaction between ammonium nitrate and sodium chlorate. In this reaction, ammonium nitrate reacts with sodium chlorate to form ammonium chlorate. After this, the product goes through purification, which includes recrystallization and filtration, to get pure ammonium chlorate as the final product.
 

Properties of Ammonium Chlorate

Ammonium chlorate has a molecular formula of NH4ClO3 and a molecular weight of 101.49 g/mol. It is a solid, colorless crystal at room temperature with a density of 2.42 g/cm³. It has a melting point of 380 degree Celsius but decomposes at a much lower temperature of around 102 degree Celsius to release nitrogen, chlorine, and oxygen. It is highly soluble in water but insoluble in alcohol. It works powerful oxidizer and has risks because it tends to decompose violently at room temperature. Its ammonium ion acts as a reducing agent, while the chlorate ion acts as an oxidizing agent, making it highly reactive. Its solutions are also unstable, and it forms sensitive explosive compositions when mixed with flammable materials.
