Aqueous ammonia

Aqueous ammonia NH3-H2O - transparent colorless or yellowish liquid a pungent odor, soluble in water, alcohol and other organic solvents
In agriculture - as a liquid fertilizer with ammonium nitrate content of 20.5%.
From an economic point of view, the nitrogen of this type of fertilizer is the cheapest. The highest effect of the use of ammonia is achieved by recording in the autumn the soil, because it is not washed out by precipitation, or in pre the period in the spring. Aqua ammonia when applied to the soil can be used under all economic culture. Ammonia nitrogen is better retained by the soil than ammonium nitrogen solid fertilizers or superphosphate. Ammonia water - good fertilizer for potatoes, sugar beet, grain and vegetable crops, perennial grasses. To increase the yield of ammonia water is not inferior solid ammonium nitrate fertilizer.
In livestock - for ammonization feed
In industry technical aqueous ammonia used in the manufacture of dyes, soda ash, in the production of electric manganese, ferroalloys, medical industry, and everyday life.
In the construction of an antifreeze additive. Unlike other antifreeze additives ammonia water not only does not cause corrosion reinforcement, but can serve as an anodic inhibitor of steel corrosion in reinforced concrete structures containing chloride salts. Supplement impairs the adhesion of the reinforcement to concrete, not reduce frost concrete does not cause efflorescence and staining on the surface design. Ammonia water slows down the setting time cements that allows you to keep the workability of the concrete mix from 4 up to 7h.Depending on the design minimum outdoor temperature air is assigned to a certain concentration of a solution of ammonia water.
Ammonia water is an Economically rational antifreeze additive, compared with aqueous solutions of potassium carbonate and calcium chloride has a significantly smaller percentage of volume expansion and is therefore the least dangerous for possible deformations from the expansion of liquid phase with the formation of ice.
