  • Applications

    Ammonium Phosphate, Dibasic (CAS 7783-28-0) is widely used as a fertilizer, supplying nitrogen and phosphorus to crops; it also serves as a phosphorus and nitrogen source in animal feeds; in fire protection it is a common component of dry chemical fire-extinguishing powders; in industrial manufacturing it functions as a phosphate/nitrogen source and buffering agent in fermentation processes and related formulations; and it may be employed as a raw material or additive in phosphate-based formulations for water treatment and various chemical syntheses, subject to local regulations.
