Product description:White hexagonal system crystallization. Is not stable, when heated to 300 ℃ is decomposed into sodium and nitrogen. Water solubility: 10 ℃ is 40.16%, when 17 ℃ 41.7%. 0.3% ethanol solubility: 25 ℃. Soluble in liquid ammonia, insoluble in ether. Relative density (d? 20) 1.846. High fever or severe vibration can strong explosion.Bacterial culture. Preparation of sodium azide blood culture medium. The sulphide and thiocyanate reagent. In organic synthesis. Manufacturing hydrazoic acid, sodium azide lead, and pure. Herbicides. Because of its strong impact quickly decompose and generate a large amount of nitrogen, sodium azide can be used in the manufacture of automobile airbag.
