What is Ammonium Carbonate?
Ammonium carbonate (NH4)2CO3 (NH₄)₂CO₃(NH4)2CO3 is a white crystalline salt. It comes from ammonia and carbon dioxide. It has many uses including use as a leavening agent and sulfur salt in pharmacology and industry. Ammonium carbonate, also called Baker's ammonia or Hartshorne, breaks down into ammonia, carbon dioxide and water vapor when heated and is therefore used to enhance cookies and crackers. Chemical laboratories use it as a buffering agent. It works as fertilizer. It serves as a reagent in manufacturing. This compound is water soluble with a strong odor due to the release of ammonia gas. In most cases ammonia, carbon dioxide and water react to prepare it. Due to its volatile salt nature, ammonium carbonate is sealed in airtight containers. With multiple uses in the food, pharmaceutical and chemical industries, global demand in these industries remains stable.
What is driving the Ammonium Carbonate Production Market?
The growing demand for ammonium carbonate is driven by the large application scope of this product in the food, pharmaceutical and agricultural industries. The growing bakery and confectionery industry is expected to increase the demand for ammonium carbonate as a food leavening agent, especially in developing countries. The growth of the pharmaceutical manufacturing industry where it is used in the production of smelling salts and cough syrups as well as fertilizers and chemicals are some of the factors driving the growth of the ammonia market. Environment-focused production technologies using ammonia manufacturing from recycling and green chemical production are becoming the new trend among the industry. Key players in the market are adopting business strategies such as they expand capacity, develop processes, optimize supply chain and plan partnerships with mergers and acquisitions to broaden their market presence across the globe. Investing more in research and developing higher purity grades besides improving stability is expected to grow the ammonium carbonate industry in the coming years.
