SODIUM NITRITE

Sodium nitrite（NaNO2)： Chemical Name: Sodium Nitrite CAS No.: 7632-00-0 Chemical Formula: NaNO2 Formula Weight: 69.00 Appearance: white powder White or a little buff fine crystal. The relative molecular weight is 69.0 and density is 2.168. It’s no smell and a little saline taste, easy to be deliquescence and to dissolve in water. The melting point is 271℃and decomposition temperature is 320℃. It has the strong oxidizing property, as well as reducing property. It can slowly oxidize into sodium nitrite in the air, and will become diamino compound composed with ammonia under low temperature.
