Hydrazine Hydrate 40% for oxygen scavenger to prevent corrosion in boiler feed water systems, thermal power stations, and nuclear plants.
Hydrazine hydrate 40% is a clear, colorless aqueous solution of hydrazine containing 40% active N₂H₄⋅H₂O by weight, widely used as a powerful reducing agent and oxygen scavenger in industrial applications. [1
Properties and Specifications
- Chemical Formula: N₂H₄⋅H₂O
- Appearance: Clear, colorless, oily liquid with a faint ammonia-like odor
- Concentration: 40% Hydrazine hydrate minimum by weight (approx. 26% anhydrous Hydrazine content)
- Density: ≈ 1.02 g/cm³ at room temperature
- Characteristics: Strongly alkaline, highly hygroscopic, and a potent reducing agent
Main Uses
- Water Treatment: Acts as an oxygen scavenger to prevent corrosion in boiler feed water systems, thermal power stations, and nuclear plants.
- Chemical Synthesis: Serves as a raw material to produce foaming and blowing agents (like AC and TSH) for plastics and rubber.
- Pharmaceuticals & Agrochemicals: Used in manufacturing medications (such as anti-tuberculosis drugs) and agricultural chemicals like herbicides and plant growth regulators.
Safety and Handling
- Toxicity: Highly toxic, fatal if inhaled or absorbed through the skin, and causes severe skin burns and eye damage.
- Reactiveness: Reacts violently with oxidizers, halogens, and nitric acid; it can also decompose at high temperatures.
- Storage: Requires airtight, corrosion-resistant containers, as it degrades glass, rubber, cork, and leather over time
