Name edit
The article says that MAP is the better known name than ADP. So why is that not the name of the article per WP:COMMONNAME? SpinningSpark 12:24, 21 April 2018 (UTC)

- While "monoammonium phosphate" is the common name in the context of fertilizers, ammonium dihydrogen phosphate is the more accurate and "official" (IUPAC) name, and may be increasingly used by chemists. In my layman's view, there does not seem to be a clear-cut winner in this dispute. --Jorge Stolfi (talk) 19:20, 14 August 2018 (UTC)
Hydrates edit
I have not found any reference to hydrated forms of the solid, and the solubility curve frm 10 to 70 C does not have kinks or bends that would suggest their existence. What about below 10 C? If there are no hydrates, is there any reference that says so explicitly? --Jorge Stolfi (talk) 19:20, 14 August 2018 (UTC)
