Ammonium Hydrogen Carbonate 99.2% FFQ

What is Ammonium Hydrogen Carbonate? Also known as ammonium bicarbonate, it is a chemical compound with the formula NH₄HCO₃. It's a white, crystalline powder that decomposes readily into ammonia, carbon dioxide, and water when heated. This makes it a useful leavening agent in baking and a component in fire-extinguishing compounds, pharmaceuticals, and fertilisers.

Frequent Uses

Leavening Agent
In baking, it's used to leaven baked goods like crackers, cookies, and some cakes, especially those that are low in moisture. It decomposes at lower temperatures than baking soda or powder, making it suitable for these applications. 

Fire Extinguishing
Used in some fire-extinguishing compounds. 

Buffers
Utilised in buffering solutions for chemical purification, particularly in techniques like HPLC and LC-MS. 

• Food industry (raising agent)
• Inexpensive nitrogen fertiliser
• Used for buffering solutions
• Key component of expectorant cough syrup
