1. From ammonium cyanide aqueous solution and sulfur or Polysulfide It is made by co heating.
In industry, it is generally produced by the coking waste liquid double salt purification device, which is now available in some small steel plants in North China and Central China.
2. It is prepared by reacting carbon disulfide with liquid ammonia under pressure. Or the slurry of sulfur and water reacts with sodium cyanide, and then reacts with solid ammonium chloride.
3. In the carbon disulfide method, carbon disulfide and slightly excess liquid ammonia are mixed with water, and react for about 20h under the pressure of 5.88 × 105Pa and temperature of 100 ℃ to generate ammonium thiocyanate. The reaction liquid is evaporated under reduced pressure to remove hydrogen sulfide. When the liquid temperature is 105 ℃, remove iron and heavy metals with ammonium sulfide, filter, concentrate the filtrate under reduced pressure, cool and crystallize in a crystallizer, and then centrifugate and dry to obtain ammonium thiocyanate.
4. The sulfur yellow method is to mix a proper amount of water and sulfur yellow powder in the reactor to form a slurry. The solid sodium cyanide is slowly added in batches. The reaction is carried out at about 110 ℃ to generate sodium thiocyanide, and then the solid ammonium chloride is added to generate ammonium thiocyanate. Barium thiocyanate is added to the reaction solution to remove impurities and clarify it. The supernatant is evaporated under reduced pressure, concentrated and separated out sodium chloride, and then filtered Ammonium thiocyanate was prepared by cooling crystallization, separation and drying.
5. Cooked with ammonium cyanide solution and sulfur powder.
6. Carbon disulfide and ammonia water are subject to pressure synthesis reaction to generate ammonium thiocyanate and by-product ammonium hydrosulfide, and then ammonium hydrosulfide is decomposed into hydrogen sulfide by desulfurization and evaporation to remove hydrogen sulfide. The resulting solution is removed impurities and separated to obtain the product. Or react sulfur with sodium cyanide to form Sodium thiocyanate , and then mixed with ammonium chloride Metathesis reaction Produce ammonium hydrosulphate.
7. For the preparation method, dissolve the industrial ammonium thiocyanate with appropriate amount of water, heat it to 60 ℃, and then add appropriate amount of barium sulfide (calculated by the weight of impurities in the raw material) Ammonium hydroxide (relative density 0.91) and barium hydroxide to remove heavy metal ions and SO four 2- Ions. Let it stand for clarification, pour out the clear liquid, add a small amount of ammonia water and activated carbon, evaporate at 60 ℃ until the relative density is 1.15, stir, cool, crystallize and filter by suction. The crystal is dissolved in a small amount of distilled water at 60 ℃, and the SO in the solution is routinely tested four 2- And Ba 2+ (If the content does not meet the requirements, add barium hydroxide or ammonium sulfate according to the calculated amount, and add a small amount of activated carbon). After meeting the requirements, filter at 60 ℃, cool and crystallize, filter by suction, wash with a small amount of distilled water, and finally dry at 30~40 ℃ to obtain analytical pure ammonium thiocyanate [2]
