Ammonium chloride (NH4Cl) is the salt of ammonia and hydrogen chloride. Its principal uses are as a nitrogen supply in fertilizers. As an electrolyte in dry cells, it is also extensively employed as a constituent of galvanizing, tinning, and soldering fluxes to remove oxide coatings from metals and thereby improve the adhesion of the solders. It is an odorless, white powder. SolidAmmonium Chloride is used to make dry batteries and Ammonia compounds, as a soldering flux, pickling agent in zinc coating and tinning, and fertilizer. Ammonium Chloride fume, a finely divided particle dispersed in air, is produced in galvanizing operations.
