Introduction:
Sodium Cyanate is a white or grey white crystalline powder, easily soluble in water(**0 g/L (*0 ºC)), slightly soluble in chloroform and organic solvents such as benzene, ethanol, ether. Stable under drying condition, while as hydrolysis in hot water, will generate ammonium carbonate, sodium carbonate and urea. When heating up to over **0°C, it also will decompose. Under the catalysis by Ni and Fe, in vacuo, it will decompose into sodium carbonate, sodium cyanide, CO2 and H2O. In case of acids, carbimide/isocyanate produced.Avoid incompatible materials, dust generation, excess heat, strong oxidants.
Application:
Sodium Cyanate is mainly used in agrochemical (an intermediate in the manufacture of insecticides, herbicides), chemical (a raw material for organic synthesis), metallurgical (heat treatment salts for metal), pharmaceutical (raw material), printing and textile (dyestuffs), and photography (initiators) industries.
