Ammonium dihydrogen phosphate Ammonium dihydrogen phosphate Ammonium dihydrogen phosphate (ADP), commonly called monoammonium phosphate (MAP) is a chemical compound with formula . It is a white crystalline solid consisting of ammonium cations and dihydrogen phosphate anions in equal proportions. ADP is a major ingredient of agricultural fertilizers and some fire extinguishers. It also has significant uses in optics and electronics. Monoammonium phosphate is soluble in water and crystallizes from it as the anhydrous salt in the tetragonal system, as elongated prisms or needles. It is practically insoluble in ethanol. Solid monoammonium phosphate can be considered stable in practice for temperatures up to 200
Thallium(III) oxide Thallium(III) oxide Thallium(III) oxide, also known as thallic oxide, is a chemical compound of thallium and oxygen. It occurs in nature as the rare mineral avicennite. Its structure is related to that of MnO which has a bixbyite like structure. TlO is metallic with high conductivity and is a degenerate n-type semiconductor which may have potential use in solar cells. A method of producing TlO by MOCVD is known. Any practical use of thallium(III) oxide will always have to take account of thallium's poisonous nature. Contact with moisture and acids may form poisonous thallium compounds. It is produced by the
