Uses and applications

What the substance is used for, by industry and function

Chloramine is an intermediate in the manufacturing of hydrazine.

Chemical intermediate (unisolated) for hydrazine and its derivatives, for organic synthesis, eg, primary amines, disinfectant for drinking water (formed in situ).

Chloramine is frequently added to municipal water supplies to control bacterial populations...

Chloramine is found in toilet bowl cleaners, bathtub cleaners, and floor cleaners.

How it is made

N-Chloramines are prepared in pH-controlled reactions by the action of hypochlorous acid or chlorine on ammonium salts.

Reaction of hypochlorous acid or sodium hypochlorite with ammonia

Unstable water-soluble products formed when ammonium hydroxide reacts with solution of sodium hypochlorite, as when ammonia water and household bleaches are mixed. Decompose to ammonia and hypochlorous acid. (Chloramines)
