Product Description
Nitrous oxide is obtained most commonly by the thermal decomposition of ammonium nitrate. It may also be obtained by controlled reduction of nitrites or nitrates, by the slow decomposition of hyponitrites, or by the thermal decomposition of hydroxylamine.

1. Q: Is nitrous oxide a greenhouse gas?
A: Yes, Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a greenhouse gas, and is one of the six greenhouse gases specified in the Kyoto Protocol. N2O is long in the atmosphere and can be transported to the stratosphere, while N2O is one of the substances leading to the loss of the ozone layer.
2.Q: How nitrous oxide is made?
A: Nitrous oxide is obtained most commonly by the thermal decomposition of ammonium nitrate.
3. Q: What is nitrous oxide effects on environment?
A: Compared with carbon dioxide, although the content of N2O in the atmosphere is very low, but its single-molecule warming potential is 298 times that of carbon dioxide (IPCC, 2007); the warming effect on the global climate will become increasingly prominent in the future.
4. Q: What is the role of nitrous oxide in NOS?
A: The modified vehicle using the nitrogen-oxygen acceleration system sends nitrous oxide into the engine, and when heated, it is decomposed into nitrogen and oxygen, which improves the combustion rate of the engine and increases the speed. Oxygen has a combustion-supporting effect and accelerates the combustion of fuel.
