Handling and Storage
Ammonium carbonate is hygroscopic and decomposes at room temperature, releasing ammonia and carbon dioxide. Store it in a cool, dry place in a tightly sealed container to maintain stability. For long-term storage, keep it under inert gas if possible. Always handle in a well-ventilated area or fume hood to avoid inhalation of decomposition gases.
