Effects of Exposure / Symptoms |
Inhalation causes increased respiration rate, headache, subtle physiological changes for upto 5% conc. And prolonged exposures. Higher concentrations can cause unconsciouness and death. Solid can cause cold contact burns. Liquid or cold gas cause freezing injury to skin or eyes similar to burn. |
Emergency Treatment |
Inhalation : Move the victim to fresh air area. Skin : Treat burns from contact with solid in the same way as frastbite. Eyes : Irrigate with plenty of water for 15 mins. Seek medical aid immediately. |

Deepak Fertilisers and Petrochemicals Corporation Limited was one of the first companies in India to manufacture Porous Low Density Ammonium Nitrate (LDAN) Prills. Today, we are the only producer of prilled ammonium nitrate in India. The company's manufacturing facilities at Taloja near Mumbai is based on the world-renowned technology from Stamicarbon of the Netherlands.
Ammonium nitrate (AN) by itself is not an explosive. It is an oxidiser and its main use is in the commercial explosives industry. It is used as a major raw material in the manufacture of water gels / slurries, emulsions, etc.
Ammonium nitrate based explosives are a vital part of every construction & infrastructure project, and indispensable in the mining of every mineral - be it coal, iron ore, copper, bauxite, or any other. Also, almost every operation theatre uses AN.
Brands We have developed AN brands of various grades for optimum performance, tailor-made to specific customer needs.
OPTIMEX® - Coated Ammonium Nitrate for HANFO / ANFO blasting in hard rock and doping of bulk explosives.
OPTIFORM - AN in uncoated form, preferred by makers of slurry explosives.
OPTISPAN - A special AN grade, for the pharmaceutical / nitrous oxide industries.
Quality DFPCL's strives to be sensitive to its customers' requirements and maintains a high level of quality consciousness.
Deepak Fertilisers And Petrochemicals Corporation Limited has set up India's largest plant for producing Isopropyl Alcohol with an installed capacity of 70,000 MT per year at Taloja near Mumbai.
International Quality Isopropyl Alcohol is manufactured using the direct hydration process, which is an extremely efficient and environmental-friendly process. It produces a sparkling colourless product of high purity with no undesirable odour or by-product formation. The product meets International Standards for use in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, speciality chemicals and other critical applications.
