Sodium Azide (For Air Bag) - Reference Information

EPA chemical information Information provided by: ofmpub.epa.gov (external link)
toxicity highly toxic, inhaling its vapor, causing headache, blood pressure drop, bronchitis and collapse. Percutaneous absorption. If sodium azide is injected intravenously with a solution of 1mg every day, the blood pressure will drop, the blood circulation in the end of the blood vessels and the coronary arteries will improve, and it will cause arteriosclerosis and paralysis, but if you drink it by mistake 1.5ml of the 10% solution, Symptoms such as difficulty breathing, rapid pulse, vomiting and thirst will occur. Mice were orally administered LD5042mg/kg, rats were orally LD5045mg/kg, and intraperitoneally injected 18 mg/kg. U.S. atmospheric environmental standards stipulate that the maximum allowable concentration is 0.1ppm (0.3mg/m3).
Use Used as a raw material for medicine, tetrazole compounds are prepared from sodium azide, and antibiotic cephalosporin drugs are further synthesized, and tetrazole compounds are still color photography medicine.
Used as the raw material of lead azide as the detonator for heat-resistant special detonators.
synthetic resin foaming agent.
Used to absorb and remove residual gas in the vacuum tube.
since the 1990s, sodium azide has been used as the air source for the safety protection bag of car drivers. when braking in an emergency, it will automatically inflate immediately. The principle of gas generation is:
2NaN3 CuO → Na2O 3N2 Cu
16NaN3 3MoS3 2S → 8Na2S 3Mo 24N2
10NaN3 2KNO3 SiO2 → 5Na2O · K2O · 5SiO2 16N2
used as organic synthesis raw materials, pesticide raw materials and analytical reagents.
Used as medicine and explosives, also used to make azide acid, azide acid ester, lead azide and pure metal sodium.
Sodium azide is a preservative for photographic emulsions. It can be added to the emulsion, or added to the intermediate layer and protective layer, without affecting the photographic performance of the emulsion, and has excellent anti-corrosion and sterilization properties.
Used in organic synthesis, oxygen content determination of sewage, serum preservatives, etc.
Biochemical research
Preparation method 1, using metal sodium as raw material, reacting with ammonia to produce sodium amide, sodium amide and nitrous oxide at 190 ℃ Reaction can produce sodium azide [1]. Ammonia recovery further reacts with metal sodium to prepare sodium amide. [1] Dissolve sodium hydroxide in a small amount of water, heat and concentrate, then [1] precipitate first, filter out, and then recrystallize in water to be refined [1].
2. Dissolve hydrazine hydrate in anhydrous ether, add a mixed solution of sodium hydroxide and ethyl nitrite under water cooling, and react it under cold conditions. After the reaction is completed, heat it slowly to restore it. To room temperature. Crystallization is precipitated, suction filtration, crystallization is taken out, washed with methanol and ether, and then recrystallized in water to obtain sodium azide.
C2H5ONO NH2 · NH2 · H2O NaOH → NaN3 C2H5OH 3H2O
3, sodium methoxide can also be prepared instead of sodium hydroxide in the above method.
solubility in water (g/100ml) dissolution grams per 100ml of water at different temperatures (℃): 38.9g/0 ℃;39.9g/10 ℃;40.8g/20 ℃
