potassium nitrate

Potassium nitrate is an inorganic compound, commonly known as ignitreous nitrate or earth nitrate, with the chemical formula KNO3, which is a potassium-containing nitrate, usually with a colorless transparent orthorhombic crystal or diamond-shaped crystal, and may also be white particles or crystalline powder. Odorless, salty and cool. It absorbs moisture in the air slightly, is not easy to agglomerate, 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, and its active ingredients nitrogen and potassium can be quickly absorbed by crops without chemical residues. As a fertilizer, it is advisable to apply to vegetables, fruits and flowers, and some chlorine-sensitive crops (such as potatoes, strawberries, beans, cabbage, lettuce, peanuts, carrots, onions, blueberries, tobacco, apricots, grapefruits, avocados, etc.).
Potassium nitrate is a strong oxidizing agent, which can cause combustion and explosion in contact with organic matter, and cause toxic and pungent odors. Therefore, potassium nitrate should be stored in a cool and dry place, away from fire a
