Diammonium Phosphate
Industrial Applications
Diammonium Phosphate is an inorganic compound widely used as a flame retardant. It promotes char formation, releases non-flammable gases, and reduces smoke production during combustion. This compound is a key ingredient in forest fire retardants and is also used to treat wood, textiles, and paper to enhance fire resistance.
Physical Properties
Diammonium Phosphate typically appears as a white, crystalline solid that is highly soluble in water. It is non-flammable, stable under normal storage conditions, and decomposes at elevated temperatures to release ammonia and phosphoric acid, which contribute to its flame-retardant behavior.
