Sodium Nitrate Analytical Reagent Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Product Code : SCL-CA-12648

The Sodium Nitrate is an inorganic nitrate salt reagent used for controlled nitrate chemistry, solution preparation, oxidizer demonstrations, and supervised chemical-analysis procedures. It is suitable for trained chemistry teachers, laboratory technicians, authorised school and college laboratories, distributors, and procurement teams requiring verified reagent identity, SDS review, and oxidizer-safe storage.

Product Description

Sodium Nitrate from School Equipments India is prepared for the laboratory chemicals, chemical-analysis reagents, and inorganic nitrate salts category. A direct verified product page for this exact chemical was not found, so grade, assay, particle form, pack size, container type, SDS, COA, batch number, and expiry or retest date must be confirmed before catalogue upload or ordering.

Sodium nitrate is a sodium salt of nitric acid with formula NaNO₃. It is commonly supplied as a solid crystalline reagent. Because nitrate salts can act as oxidizers, sodium nitrate must be segregated from combustible materials, reducing agents, organic materials, and unauthorised use.

Key Features

• Laboratory nitrate reagent: suitable for controlled procedures where sodium nitrate is specified.
• Formula NaNO₃: useful for stoichiometry, nitrate-ion calculations, and solution preparation.
• Crystalline salt format: easy to weigh and dispense when handled with clean, dry tools.
• Oxidizer awareness: requires segregation from combustible, organic, and reducing materials.
• PPE-based handling: users should protect eyes, skin, clothing, and breathing zone as required by SDS.
• Procurement-safe listing: unverified pack size, assay, grade, and documents are marked for confirmation.

How to Use the Sodium Nitrate

1. Read the current SDS, COA, product label, and laboratory risk assessment before use.
2. Confirm grade, assay, particle form, and method suitability before weighing or dispensing.
3. Wear safety goggles, suitable gloves, and a lab coat before handling.
4. Use a clean, dry spatula and take only the quantity required by the approved procedure.
5. Avoid creating dust during transfer, weighing, mixing, and cleanup.
6. Keep the reagent away from combustible materials, organic substances, reducing agents, heat, and unauthorised mixtures.
7. Label prepared solutions with name, concentration, date, preparer, and hazard information.
8. Dispose of residues according to institutional chemical-waste procedures.

Safety note: Sodium nitrate is an oxidizing laboratory chemical. Students should use it only under trained teacher or laboratory-technician supervision with PPE, controlled quantities, compatible storage, and current SDS access.

Care & Maintenance

• Store tightly closed in a dry, labelled, oxidizer-compatible chemical-storage area.
• Keep away from combustible materials, paper waste, organic chemicals, reducing agents, acids, food items, and unauthorised users.
• Use clean and dry dispensing tools to prevent contamination and caking.
• Dispose of contaminated, unlabelled, or expired reagent through approved laboratory procedures.
