Introduction to Ammonium Persulfate Drying

Ammonium persulfate (APS), with the chemical formula (NH₄)₂S₂O₈, is a strong oxidizing agent widely used in polymer initiation, printed circuit board (PCB) etching, battery production, and hair bleaching. Drying is a critical step in its manufacturing and handling to remove moisture, enhance stability, and ensure consistent reactivity in industrial applications. Proper drying prevents decomposition, caking, and loss of oxidizing efficiency, which are vital for safe storage and performance.

Drying Process Overview
Ammonium persulfate’s sensitivity to heat and moisture necessitates controlled drying conditions. Common equipment include:

Vibration Fluid Bed Dryer
The vibration source is driven by a vibration motor, which has balanced operation, easy maintenance, low noise and long service life.
High effection, raw material is heates evenly and heated evenly and heat exchange is fully used and dry capacity is high. Compared with ordinary drier, the energy can be saved about 30%.
