Ammonium Hydroxide
Ammonium Hydroxide (Product Code: SCL360/080) is an aqueous ammonia solution used as a weak alkali and ammonia source for qualitative analysis, precipitation tests and acid–base experiments in school, college and teaching laboratories. Chemistry teachers and lab technicians order it in a 250 ml bottle of analytical reagent grade, and every supply comes with an MSDS. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, a lab chemicals supplier serving India and international markets.

What Is Ammonium Hydroxide Used For?
In the chemistry lab, ammonium hydroxide is the usual source of dilute ammonia for salt analysis. Added drop by drop to a test solution, it precipitates many metal hydroxides, and an excess dissolves some of them again – copper(II), for example, turns a deep blue. That behaviour makes it a core bottle in any salt analysis kit for schools, and students also use it to show that ammonia turns red litmus blue and forms white ammonium chloride fumes near hydrochloric acid.
Work with the bottle in a well-ventilated room or a chemical fume cupboard, because the solution gives off ammonia gas with a sharp, irritating smell. Keep the cap tight after use, store it away from acids, and dilute it with water before handing it to students. Read the supplied MSDS before first use and file it with the lab’s chemical records.
Supplier
Ammonium Hydroxide is sourced and supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab from Ambala, Haryana. Because the company also supplies glassware and apparatus, a school or college can place one order for a complete wet-chemistry practical instead of dealing with several vendors. Read more about the company on our company profile page.

Frequently Asked Questions
What pack size is the Ammonium Hydroxide supplied in?
Ammonium Hydroxide (SCL360/080) is supplied in a 250 ml pack of analytical reagent grade. For a class set or a whole academic session, tell us how many bottles you need and we will quote that quantity.
Does the Ammonium Hydroxide come with a safety data sheet?
Yes. Every supply of Ammonium Hydroxide from ScienceLab is sent with an MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) covering hazards, first aid, storage and spill handling. Keep it with the bottle and share it with anyone who prepares dilutions for students.
What is the shelf life of Ammonium Hydroxide?
The shelf life of Ammonium Hydroxide depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions, so we do not quote a fixed period. Ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted, and keep the bottle tightly closed in a cool place.
How should Ammonium Hydroxide be stored in a school lab?
Store Ammonium Hydroxide tightly capped in a cool, ventilated chemistry reagent cabinet, away from acids and direct sunlight. Ammonia escapes from an open or warm bottle, which weakens the solution and irritates eyes and nose, so close it right after dispensing.
Who supplies this Ammonium Hydroxide?
This Ammonium Hydroxide is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, Haryana, India. The company sources analytical reagents and supplies them with its laboratory apparatus to schools, colleges, dealers and institutional buyers in India and international markets.
