Industrial Ammonium Nitrate:

El Dorado Chemical Company produces liquid and solid ammonium nitrate to supply both the commercial explosive markets and specialty applications particular to other industrial markets such as greenhouses, nurseries, animal antibiotics and conductivity enhancement.

Our prilled, low-density industrial grade ammonium nitrate provides free flowing, fuel absorbent prills for bulk storage and loading to manufacture solid blasting agents for the commercial explosives. Utilizing the Kaltenbach-Thuring (KT) technology, this type of ammonium nitrate is used predominantly in the mining, construction and quarry industries.

Liquid ammonium nitrate solution is the key ingredient in the manufacture of emulsion and water gel blasting agents.

Our E-2 (high-density) ammonium nitrate remains the industry standard in packaged explosive materials because of its density, purity and ability to withstand degradation during storage. These same purity and storage qualities, as well as excellent solubility makes it ideal for the specialty industrial markets.
