Purification of ammonium nitrate fertilizer

kclo4 - 27-3-2005 at 21:01

Once again I am going to post this question I hope I do not seem to be a jerk but I would really need to know what glue or what is on the ammonium nitrate. if this subject has been posted before or there’s a site address some one could show me and if the polymer is soluble in butane or propane. I don’t mean to fill the forum with shit if that is what the more experienced people would call it but it’s important to me and I hope this stay open

I hope I don’t get a Gerald at for re-asking the question

Ammonium Nitrate

The ammonium nitrate I get is usually clay or wax coated prills. I dissolve it in cold water and
filter. Then I boil the water until some crystals form and cool it in the refrigerator to obtain as
much crystals as possible. Because of its solubility, it's better to work in large quantities
to minimize losses.

I can guarantee you that RS has at least one long thread on this. Search there.

RS, i.e. the Explosives and Weapons forum.
