Abstract

The effect of sulfate ions on the physicochemical properties of ammonium nitrate with a dolomite additive was examined. Changes in the rate of the IV → III phase transition, granule strength, number of thermal cycles, and content of ammonium nitrate aerosol in air after the granulation tower were evaluated.
