Formulations/Preparations: •association of american plant food control officials defines sodium nitrate...as follows: nitrate of soda (sodium nitrate) is chiefly the sodium salt of nitric acid. it shall contain not less than 16% nitrate nitrogen & 26% sodium.
•purified grade contains at least 99% sodium nitrate.
•grade: granular, sticks, powder; crude; 99.5%; double refined; recrystallized; cp; technical; reagent; diuretic; fcc.
•chile saltpeter is marketed as both a "granular" product (mainly used as a fertilizer) and a coarse crystalline product. technical-grade synthetic sodium nitrate is a fine, crystalline white powder with a bulk density of about 1.36 kgl. it is sold as an untreated product and also as a free-flowing product containing up to 0.1% alkyl aryl sulfonate as an anticaking agent.
•as of 1991 sodium nitrate was used with other components as an active ingredient to control mammals such as woodchucks, ground squirrels, and coyotes in open fields, non-crop areas, rangelands, lawns and golf courses. the three end-use products, two containing 65% a.i. sodium nitrate and one with 46.2% sodium nitrate, are all used as fumigant gas cartridges designed to be placed in burrows. the sodium nitrate supports the combustion of charcoal in the formulation of each product.
