Product Application

 

Application crystalline powder fertilizer potassium nitrate

FertilizerUsed in fertilizers, as a source of nitrogen and potassium-two of the macro nutrients for plants.
Oxidizer

Used in black powder rocket motors, but also in combination with other fuels like sugars in "rocket candy".

Used in fireworks such as smoke bombs, made with a mixture of sucrose and potassium nitrate.

Added to pre-rolled cigarettes to maintain an even burn of the tobacco and is used to ensure complete combustion of paper cartridges for cap and ball revolvers.

Food preservationPotassium Nitrate (NOP 13-0-46) has been a common ingredient of salted meat, such as charcuterie and the brine used to make corned beef.
Fire extinguishingPotassium Nitrate (NOP 13-0-46) is the main solid particle component of condensed aerosol fire suppression systems.
Tree stump removalPotassium Nitrate (NOP 13-0-46) is the main component (usually about 98%) of tree stump remover, asPotassium Nitrate (NOP 13-0-46) accelerates the natural decomposition of the stump by supplying nitrogen for the fungi attacking the wood of the stump.
Heat treatment of metalsPotassium Nitrate (NOP 13-0-46) is commonly used in the heat treatment of metals as a solvent in the post-wash.
Pharmacology

Potassium Nitrate (NOP 13-0-46) was added in toothpastes for treating sensitive teeth.

Potassium Nitrate (NOP 13-0-46) was used for treating asthma as well as arthritis.

Potassium Nitrate (NOP 13-0-46) combats high blood pressure and was used as a hypertensive.
