Ammonium Phosphate (Product Code: SCL-765/127) is an analytical reagent salt used to demonstrate the tests for the ammonium and phosphate ions and to link chemistry with plant nutrition in school and college laboratories. Because one 500 gm pack carries both ions, science teachers, agriculture instructors and college demonstrators use it for two sets of ion tests, pot trials and a flame-retardancy demonstration. It is supplied with an MSDS by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, a lab chemicals supplier for schools.

For the ammonium test, students warm a small amount of the salt with sodium hydroxide solution in a test tube and hold moist red litmus paper at the mouth of the tube. The smell of ammonia and the paper turning blue confirm the ammonium ion. For the phosphate test, a portion is acidified with nitric acid, ammonium molybdate is added and the tube is warmed, giving a canary-yellow precipitate.
In biology and agriculture lessons, a dilute solution can feed one set of seedlings while a control set gets plain water, turning a few pots into a simple plant growth experiment for comparing growth over a few weeks. A striking extra demonstration uses paper strips soaked in the solution and dried: held in a flame over a metal tray, they char instead of blazing like an untreated strip. Keep the pack closed and store it away from strong alkalis, which release ammonia from the salt.

Who supplies Ammonium Phosphate SCL-765/127?
Ammonium Phosphate (SCL-765/127) is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd, trading as ScienceLab, Ambala, Haryana, India. The company sources this analytical reagent salt and supplies it with an MSDS to institutions and dealers in India and international markets.
Is this mono-ammonium or di-ammonium phosphate?
The listing for Ammonium Phosphate does not specify whether the mono-ammonium or di-ammonium salt is supplied. If your procedure or fertiliser calculation names one of them, please confirm it through our contact page before ordering so that the pack matches your method.
What is in one pack of Ammonium Phosphate?
One pack of Ammonium Phosphate contains 500 gm of the salt, listed as analytical reagent grade, together with an MSDS. The same pack serves both the ammonium and the phosphate ion tests, so a single stock bottle covers two practical activities.
Can ammonium phosphate be used in plant-growth experiments?
Yes. Ammonium Phosphate can be used in dilute solution for small classroom pot trials comparing fed and unfed seedlings. It is sold as a laboratory reagent for teaching, not as a field fertiliser, so keep quantities small and label the solutions clearly.
What is the shelf life of Ammonium Phosphate?
Shelf life depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions; ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted. Store Ammonium Phosphate tightly closed, dry and apart from sodium hydroxide and other strong alkalis.
Do you supply ammonium phosphate in bulk or to overseas buyers?
Yes. Ammonium Phosphate is supplied to schools, colleges and dealers in India and international markets. Tell us the number of 500 gm packs and the destination, and the quotation will cover the quantity and dispatch you need.
Send your quantity and delivery location via the contact page, or add Ammonium Phosphate (SCL-765/127) to the enquiry cart with litmus paper and test reagents to receive one quotation.
