What is Ammonium Thiosulfate?
Ammonium thiosulfate, chemical formula (NH4)2S2O3. Molecular weight 148.20. Colorless monoclinic crystals. The melting point is 150°C (decomposition), and the relative density is 1.679. Soluble in water, insoluble in ethanol, slightly soluble in acetone. Its aqueous solution has long-standing sulfur precipitation. Its concentrated aqueous solution above 50°C gradually decomposes into sulfur and sulfate. Ammonium thiocyanate and ammonium sulfite are formed in the presence of ammonia and hydrocyanic acid. Aqueous solution can dissolve silver halide. Its ability to dissolve silver chloride and silver bromide is greater than that of sodium thiosulfate, so it is also used for fast fixing. However, it has a dissolution effect on the metallic silver that constitutes the image.
Preparation method: It can be prepared by adding excess ammonium carbonate to calcium thiosulfate aqueous solution, or can be prepared by mixing ammonium bisulfide and ammonium bisulfite aqueous solution at an accurate molar ratio of 1:2, and reacting; it can also be obtained by freezing and crystallizing after double decomposition reaction of ammonium sulfite and ammonium polysulfide to remove sulfur.
Ammonium Thiosulfate Uses
- Clean “white” metal; In terms of photography; Lubricant used for metal cold working.
- Ammonium thiosulfate is used for semiconductor parts, synthesis of Organoboron chemistry, plasticizer, welding flux.
- Ammonium thiosulfate can be used to leach gold and silver because it forms a solid complex. It is widely used as a photographic fixer, and its effect is faster than that of Sodium thiosulfate fixer. It is used as fertilizer. As an additive for coal waste mixtures, it can inhibit the formation of hazardous dioxins and furans. Used as an analytical reagent in the laboratory.
- Ammonium thiosulfate acts as a complexing agent in cyanide free electroplating, and Thiosulfuric acid combines with silver ion to form Thiosulfuric acid silver complex ion. Improve the cathodic polarization effect, making the silver plating layer crystallize finely and have good coverage ability. The general dosage is 200-250 g/L.
- The photographic market is made use of as a photographic fixer. Compared with sodium salt, the solution movie of Silver halide is less complicated to liquify. It has the advantages of brief washing time and simple silver healing. Likewise used as the primary component of silver plating baths; Detergent for metal surfaces; Aluminum magnesium alloy spreading protective representative. Made use of as a fungicide as well as analytical reagent in medicine.
- Ammonium thiocyanate, also known as Ammonium cyanide, is used to synthesize tert butyl Thiocyanic acid, an intermediate of the insecticide thiazinone, and thiosemicarbazide, an intermediate of the insecticide zolimicarb, the fungicide lobazole, and the herbicide fluthiazolamide. In addition, it is also used as an auxiliary raw material and dye for manufacturing hydrogen peroxide, and as a polymerization catalyst for organic synthesis.

Application of Ammonium Thiosulfate
Ammonium thiocyanate is commonly utilized as a photographic fixer, steel cleaner, electroplating service and also minimizing agent.
In farming, it is used to synthesize the intermediate tert-butyl isothiocyanate of the insecticide buprofezin, and the intermediate thiosemicarbazide of the pesticide pyraprocarb, the fungicide euconazole, and the herbicide flufenacet; additionally, it is likewise utilized as a complementary resources and also dye for the manufacturing of hydrogen peroxide, as well as a polymerization catalyst for natural synthesis.
In the photosensitive market; used as a photo fixer, it is much easier to liquify the silver halide emulsion than sodium salt, and has the advantages of brief washing time and also simple silver recovery; it is likewise made use of as the main element of the silver plating bathroom, and is used as a complexing representative in cyanide-free electroplating. Thiosulfate radicals combine with silver ions to create silver thiosulfate complicated ions. Enhance the cathodic polarization, make the crystallization of the silver plating layer penalty, and also the covering capability is excellent. The general dose is 200 ~ 250g/L.
It is also utilized in the synthesis of natural boron compounds, plasticizers, welding fluxes; steel surface cleaners; aluminum-magnesium alloy casting security representatives. It is utilized as a fungicide and analytical reagent in medication.
Production Method of Ammonium Thiosulfate
Add NH3 water into the response pot, and go through SO2 to get ammonium sulfite for later usage.
Include ammonium polysulfide to the response kettle, add water to dissolve, slowly add the above option under mixing, respond at 30-55 ° C, and also keep the response remedy dark orange during the response process. The amount of ammonium sulfite solution included is somewhat less than the theoretical amount. After the ammonium sulfite service is added, heavy steam for numerous hrs to repel the ammonium sulfide. The reaction solution was filteringed system, steamed under the defense of nitrogen, and decolorized with turned on carbon to get rid of sulfur. Freezing condensation, centrifugal dehydration, and also drying out under the defense of ammonia gas to get the ended up product.
Ammonium sulfite is developed by the activity of ammonium bicarbonate, sulfur dioxide and water. After filtering to get rid of pollutants, it is warmed as well as steamed with sulfur to respond, and afterwards filtered, vaporized, cooled and taken shape, and centrifuged to obtain the finished item of ammonium thiosulfate.
Its 2NH4HCO3+ SO2+ H2O →( NH4) 2SO3 +2 WATER +2 CO2 ↑; (NH4) 2SO3+ S →( NH4) 2S2O.
Mix carbon disulfide as well as slightly excess fluid ammonia with water, react for about 20 hrs under the problems of pressure 5.88 × 105Pa and also temperature level 100 ° C, eliminate hydrogen sulfide from the response option by evaporation under lowered pressure, remove iron as well as heavy metals with ammonium sulfide at a liquid temperature of 105 ° C, filter, concentrate the filtrate under lowered pressure, cool and crystallize in a crystallizer, and after that centrifuge and dry to obtain ammonium thiocyanate.
Response formula: CS2 +3 NH3= NH4SCN+ NH4HSNH4HS= NH3 ↑+ H2S ↑.
Mix an appropriate amount of water and also sulfur powder into a slurry in a reactor, slowly include solid sodium cyanide in stages, and also react at concerning 110 ° C to produce salt thiocyanate, then add strong ammonium chloride to respond to generate ammonium thiocyanate, after that include barium thiocyanate to the reaction option to remove impurities as well as clarify, the supernatant is vaporized under lowered pressure, focused and also precipitated sodium chloride, and after that filtered, cooled and also crystallized, separated as well as dried to get ammonium thiocyanate.
Response formula: NaCN+ S= NaSCNNaSCN+ NH4Cl= NaCl+ NH4SCN.
