Applications :

• In the construction industry for the production of magnesia cement, glass-magnesium tiles, and magnesite slabs.
• In the manufacture of millstones and marble/granite polishing stones.
• In the oil & gas industry as a component of drilling fluids.
• In the chemical industry for processing of magnesium-containing compounds.
• In the textile industry for stabilization in carpet dyeing.
• In the agriculture sector as fertilizer.
• Used for dust suppression.
• For treatment of sewage & industrial wastewater.

Applications :

• The main application of ammonium chloride is as a nitrogen source in fertilizers
•  METALWORK- Ammonium chloride is used as a flux in preparing metals to be tin coated, galvanized or soldered
•  MEDICINE- Ammonium chloride is used as an expectorant in cough medicine. Ammonium chloride is used as a systemic acidifying agent in treatment of severe metabolic alkalosis, in oral acid loading test to diagnose distal renal tubular acidosis, to maintain the urine at an acid pH in the treatment of some urinary-tract disorders.
•  FOOD- In several countries, ammonium chloride, known as sal ammoniac, is used as food additive under the  E number E510, commonly as a yeast nutrient in breadmaking. Ammonium chloride is used to spice up dark sweets called salty liquorice, in baking to give cookies a very crisp texture
• IN LABORATORY- Ammonium chloride is used to produce low temperatures in cooling baths. Ammonium chloride solutions with ammonia are used as buffer solutions.

Applications :

• In industrial application, Ferric chloride is used in sewage treatment and drinking water production.
• It is also used as a leaching agent in chloride hydrometallurgy, for example in the production of Si from FeSi. (Silgrain process)
• Ferric chloride is used as catalyst for the reaction of ethylene with chlorine, forming ethylene dichloride, an important commodity chemical, which is mainly used for the industrial production of vinyl chloride, the monomer for making PVC
• Used in Laboratory.
• Used in anhydrous form as a drying reagent in certain reactions.
• Used to detect the presence of phenol compounds in organic synthesis e.g.: examining purity of synthesised Aspirin.
• Used in water and wastewater treatment to precipitate phosphate as iron(III) phosphate.
• Necessary for the etching of photogravure plates for printing photographic and fine art images in intaglio and for etching rotogravure cylinders used in the printing industry.
• Used to make printed circuit boards (PCBs).
• Used to test the pitting and crevice corrosion resistance of stainless steels and other alloys.
• Used in an animal thrombosis model.
