About 80% of liquid industrial grade intermediate nitric acid is used in the preparation of fertilizers. Liquid nitric acid is a good oxidizing agent which is widely used in the manufacturing of organic and inorganic compounds. This chemical has a lot of other uses, it finds its applications in industries as well as in our everyday life.
Fertilizer industrial
In fertilizer production, Intermediate liquid nitric acid is used for manufacturing different types of nitrogenous fertilizers like calcium nitrate, ammonium nitrate, etc. Intermdiate nitric acid is key component which is manufactured from ammonia.
Other industrial uses
Nitric acid is a strong oxidizing agent and a key building block for many chemical compounds. It is used in manufacturing polyamides (e.g., nylon), but not typically polyurethane. It is also used in rocket propellants, explosives such as TNT and nitroglycerin, dyes, drugs, and nitrate salts. In metal refining, nitric acid is used to dissolve silver and, as part of aqua regia, to refine gold and platinum.
Daily life uses
In schools, dilute nitric acid is commonly used as a laboratory reagent. It is not used directly on food in the food industry. Spot tests for alkaloids like LSD may use nitric acid, but it is not a standard method to differentiate between morphine and heroin. The practice of using diluted nitric acid to age wood is outdated and not recommended due to safety risks.
