Chemicals Ammonia is the starting material for nitric acid manufacture. Laboratories & analysis Ammonia is used in calibration gas mixtures for environmental emission monitoring, petrochemical industry, industrial hygiene monitors and trace impurity analyzers.

Electronics Ammonia is used in semiconductor manufacturing and advanced materials for the deposition of silicon nitride (Si3N4) by Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD).

Environment Ammonia is a refrigerating fluid used instead chlorofluorocarbons (freons) in some refrigerators.

Top of the page Material compatibility Air Liquide has assembled data on the compatibility of gases with materials to assist you in evaluating which products to use for a gas system. Although the information has been compiled from what Air Liquide believes are reliable sources (International Standards: Compatibility of cylinder and valve materials with gas content; Part 1: ISO 11114-1 (Jul 1998), Part 2: ISO 11114-2 (Mar 2001)), it must be used with extreme caution. No raw data such as this can cover all conditions of concentration, temperature, humidity, impurities and aeration. It is therefore recommended that this table is used to choose possible materials and then more extensive investigation and testing is carried out under the specific conditions of use. The collected data mainly concern high pressure applications at ambiant temperature and the safety aspect of material compatibity rather than the quality aspect.
