What is the identity and typical physical form of Carbohydrazide CAS 497-18-7?

CAS 497-18-7 identifies Carbohydrazide, also called carbonic dihydrazide or 1,3-diaminourea, with molecular formula CH₆N₄O and molecular weight about 90.08. It is commonly supplied as a white crystalline powder, but the offered form and active content should be confirmed.

What is Carbohydrazide used for?

Carbohydrazide is used mainly as an oxygen scavenger in boiler feedwater and steam systems, especially where a volatile treatment that does not add dissolved solids is preferred. It is also used as an epoxy curing agent, chemical intermediate and stabilizer in selected formulations.

Are Carbohydrazide powder and formulated solutions directly comparable?

No. Solid Carbohydrazide is commonly specified near 98-100.9% active content, while commercial boiler-treatment solutions may contain much lower active concentration and catalysts or other treatment components. Compare delivered cost, dosage and impurities on the same active basis.

Which quality parameters and steam-system conditions should be confirmed?

Review active content, free hydrazine, moisture, pH and limits for chloride, sulfate, silica, copper, iron, sodium and lead as required by the system. Also confirm boiler pressure, feed point, dissolved-oxygen target, metallurgy, existing treatment program and discharge limits.

How should Carbohydrazide be stored, handled, and transported?

Store in a cool, dry, ventilated area away from strong acids, oxidizers and ignition sources. Confirm the UN classification and transport conditions before shipment, and use appropriate containment, PPE and spill-control measures for the offered form.
