Use

• Nitrate is used in the following conditions and applications.
• It is used as set accelerator and quality enhancer in the production of concrete and cement chemicals.
• Nitrate is a very common coagulant in latex production, especially in dipping processes.
• Nitrate can be used as part of the fused salt mixtures.
• Can be used in fertilizers, explosives and pyrotechnics.
• It can be applied in irrigation systems (especially drip irrigation) with direct soil application or foliar for the treatment and treatment of calcium deficiency in agricultural crops.
