Ammonium Chloride - NH4Cl - 1 Pound

I ordered this ammonium chloride to use when mixing solutions for a ferroblend cyanotype process. I recently learned of a modified cyanotype process that uses a copper sulfate based developer for cyanotype prints. This produces a result that looks strikingly different from a traditional cyanotype. With the right mix of chemicals and the right development time, you end up with a print that has deep blue shadows and copper midtones/highlights. One of the chemicals needed for this process is ammonium chloride. I have a pretty well-stocked chemical shelf as I do a lot of alternative process photography, but ammonium chloride is a new one for me. I've found that all of the alternative processes I use work just fine with "standard" grade chemicals and it's very rare that I need to order a lab grade reagent. Based on the results I got, I have to say that this ammonium chloride works fine. I'm unaware of what other uses it may have, but if you need it for an alternative photographic process, this product from Alpha Chemicals should work for you without issues.

Not food grade but "animal feed grade" is good enough for me. Seemed pure but I don't have the qualification to judge of that. Proved to me that whoever decided to sell potassium chloride to people who needs to replace salt was a sadistic monsters when some alternatives actually taste salty. Also worked well for food burning. I now have a salt shaker with it and one with normal salt and constantly prank myself by accident by taking the wrong one

A previous review called this a ‘mystery powder’ and that their ammonia test came back completely clear after using this. I’m here to say this absolutely works as intended for fishless cycling. This was my reading after adding less than 1/8 teaspoon to 15 gallons.

The quantity and quality is exactly what one would expect from Alpha Chemicals- perfect! I'm using this in conjunction with other ingredients for pyography. 1 lb of product in an easy to close zip top bag. Easy to use powder form. Easy to mix. Great value for the average household.

I used this for a craft I found on Pinterest and YouTube. You can mix this with thickener and have a solution for DIY wood burning with food thickener and heat gun. That's what I use it for, and it works great. Therefore, I can't comment on the other uses for it.
