What are the storage temperature range for 30% Cyanamide?

Jun 03, 2025|

Hey there! As a supplier of 30% Cyanamide, I often get asked about the proper storage temperature range for this chemical. It's a crucial question because getting the storage conditions right can make a huge difference in the quality and shelf - life of the product.

First off, let's talk a bit about what 30% Cyanamide is. It's a chemical that has a wide range of applications. You can find it being used in the agricultural industry as a plant growth regulator, in the pharmaceutical sector for some chemical syntheses, and even in the water treatment field.

Now, the storage temperature range for 30% Cyanamide is pretty specific. Generally, it should be stored at temperatures between 10°C and 30°C (50°F - 86°F). This range is carefully determined based on the chemical properties of Cyanamide.

At lower temperatures, say below 10°C, Cyanamide can start to crystallize. Crystallization is not good news because it can change the concentration of the solution. When it crystallizes, the liquid part might have a different proportion of Cyanamide compared to the original 30% mixture. And once it crystallizes, it's a pain to get it back to a homogeneous solution. You might need to warm it up slowly, and even then, there's no guarantee that the chemical properties remain exactly the same as before.

On the other hand, if the storage temperature goes above 30°C, Cyanamide becomes more unstable. High temperatures can accelerate chemical reactions, and in the case of Cyanamide, it can lead to decomposition. Decomposition means that the Cyanamide breaks down into other substances, which not only reduces the effectiveness of the product but can also create potentially hazardous by - products.

So, maintaining that sweet spot between 10°C and 30°C is key. If you're storing it in a warehouse, you might need to invest in some temperature - control equipment like air conditioners or heaters to keep the environment just right.

When it comes to transportation, the same temperature rules apply. During shipping, especially in areas with extreme climates, extra care needs to be taken. For example, if you're shipping in the summer through a hot region, the containers should be insulated and perhaps even equipped with cooling systems. In winter, especially in cold areas, proper heating might be required to prevent crystallization.

I know that some of you might be thinking, "Is there any leeway in these temperature ranges?" Well, a small deviation for a short period might not cause immediate problems. But continuous exposure outside the recommended range is a big no - no. Even a few degrees outside the range over an extended time can gradually degrade the quality of the 30% Cyanamide.

Now, let me tell you a bit about our company's approach to handling 30% Cyanamide storage. We've got state - of - the - art storage facilities. Our warehouses are equipped with advanced temperature - monitoring systems. These systems constantly check the temperature and send alerts if it starts to drift outside the safe range. We also have backup power sources for our cooling and heating equipment, so even in case of a power outage, we can maintain the right conditions for a while.

In addition to the 30% Cyanamide, we also offer other related chemical products. For example, we have Calcium Cyanamide for Chemical. Calcium Cyanamide is another important chemical with various industrial applications, such as in the production of fertilizers and as a raw material in some chemical processes.

We also supply Granular Calcium Carbide for Chemical. Granular Calcium Carbide is used in the production of acetylene gas, which has applications in welding and cutting, among other things.

And of course, we have Cyanamide 420 - 04 - 2. This particular form of Cyanamide might have different purity levels and applications compared to the 30% solution we've been talking about.

If you're in the market for 30% Cyanamide or any of our other chemical products, we're here to serve you. We pride ourselves on providing high - quality chemicals with strict adherence to storage and handling standards. Whether you're a small - scale user or a large industrial client, we can meet your needs.

If you're interested in purchasing 30% Cyanamide or want to learn more about our other chemical offerings, don't hesitate to reach out. We're always happy to have a chat about your requirements and how we can help you get the best products at the right price.

So, if you've got questions about storage, usage, or anything else related to our chemicals, just let us know. We're looking forward to starting a great business relationship with you.
