Disodium magnesium EDTA is a chelated compound widely used in agriculture to provide magnesium in an easily absorbable form for plants. It is commonly included in fertilizers and nutrient solutions to support healthy photosynthesis and plant development, especially in magnesium-deficient soils.

Industrial Uses

1. Agrochemicals

  • Magnesium Micronutrient in Fertilizers : Used in foliar sprays, drip irrigation, and soil applications to supply bioavailable magnesium, especially in calcareous or high-pH soils where magnesium is less accessible to plants.
  • Chelated Magnesium for Hydroponics : Ensures stable and continuous magnesium availability in hydroponic solutions without precipitation, improving chlorophyll formation and plant health.

2. Food & Healthcare Ingredients

  • Mineral Fortification in Food Products: Added to beverages, cereals, and dietary supplements to provide magnesium enrichment without altering taste, color, or texture due to its neutral, soluble form.
  • Stabilizer in Multivitamin Formulations: Keeps magnesium soluble and bioavailable in combination with other minerals and vitamins, reducing cross-reactions and improving shelf life of syrups, tablets, and effervescents.

3. Pharmaceuticals

  • Magnesium Supplement in Medicines : Used in oral formulations for patients with magnesium deficiency. Being chelated, it offers better gastrointestinal tolerance and absorption than inorganic salts like MgO or MgCl₂.
  • Stabilizer in Injectable Solutions : Helps in stabilizing magnesium in IV nutrition formulations where precise ionic control is needed for parenteral nutrition.

4. Animal Healthcare

  • Mineral Source in Animal Nutrition : Added to poultry, cattle, and aquatic feed to prevent magnesium deficiency, which can lead to poor growth, reduced productivity, and stress-related disorders.
  • Chelate to Enhance Bioavailability : EDTA chelation prevents interference from other dietary minerals, ensuring maximum absorption in the animal's gut.

5. Personal Care

  • Stabilizer in Formulations : Used in creams, lotions, and shampoos to bind trace metal ions that may catalyze oxidation, thus improving shelf life and appearance of the final product.
  • Magnesium Enrichment in Topicals : Sometimes included in therapeutic or mineral-rich skincare products for its role in promoting skin cell regeneration and relaxation.

6. Water Treatment

  • Chelating Agent for Heavy Metals : Used in industrial water treatment to chelate heavy metal ions (like lead, copper, iron), helping in metal removal and prevention of scale formation.
  • Magnesium Balancer : Helps in maintaining magnesium levels in treated water, especially in processes where demineralization or ion-exchange leads to magnesium loss.
