| | Ammonium benzoate Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | Ammonium benzoate NH4C7H5O2,white crystalline powder,soluble, formed by reaction of NH4OH and benzoic acid. Used (1) as a food preservative, (2) in medicine. | | Uses | To preserve glue and latex. | | Uses | Ammonium benzoate is used predominantly in industries which acts as a corrosion inhibitors and anti-scaling agents . It is also used as paint additives and coating additives. Other consumer uses include cleaning and furnishing Care products, paints and coatings, personal care products, water treatment products. Ammonium benzoate is also used as chemical analysis reagents, in electronics industry, used for the production of electrolytic capacitors and also used in pharmaceutical industries. Used as adhesives, metal rust treatment and rubber additives. | | General Description | A white crystalline solid. Soluble in water. The primary hazard is the threat to the environment. Immediate steps should be taken to limit spread to the environment. Used in medicine and as a food preservative. | | Air & Water Reactions | Water soluble. | | Reactivity Profile | Avoid strong mineral acids and strong alkalis. Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Irritating and toxic ammonia gas and other nitrogen compounds or oxides of carbon may form in fires [USCG, 1999]. | | Health Hazard | Inhalation of dust may irritate nose. Contact with eyes causes irritation. Ingestion leads to nausea and vomiting. | | Fire Hazard | Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Irritating and toxic ammonia gas and other nitrogen compounds or oxides of carbon may form in fires. | | Flammability and Explosibility | Not classified | | Safety Profile | Poison by ingestion andintravenous routes. When heated to decomposition itemits toxic vapors of NOx and NH3. | | Synthesis | Ammonium benzoate is obtained by liquid-phase reaction of benzoic acid with concentrated ammonia at a 1:1 molar ratio, with the ammonia kept slightly in excess to drive the reaction to completion[1]. It is also prepared by neutralization of benzoic acid, 3-chlorobenzoic acid, 3-methylbenzoic acid or 3-nitrobenzoic acid with diethylamine cations, yielding the salt and its derivative ionic liquids[2]. | | Purification Methods | Crystallise it from EtOH.
