Ammonium Chloride or Sal Ammoniac (chemically ammonium chloride (NH₄Cl); also zalmiak, sal armagnac) is, in its pure form, a clear white crystalline salt. Historically it was considered one of the four alchemical "spirits". In modern times it found use as an electrolyte for batteries, and as cough medicine flavoring to hide the taste of some medicines, and as a fluid retentative agent.

Sal Ammoniac was named after it was observed in the Temple of Zeus-Ammon in Egypt, it's name means "salt of Ammon". It was the white crystaline substance that remained on the ceiling and walls after camel dung was burned. The modern name "ammonium" comes from Sal Ammoniac.

An industrial byproduct, in several countries sal ammoniac is used to spice up liquorice type dark candies. It has even been used as a flavoring for vodkas. It is sold in blocks at hardware stores that are used to clean the tip of a soldering iron.
