EDTA ferric ammonium (Liquid) is a chelated iron solution commonly used in agriculture to correct iron deficiencies in crops. It ensures efficient iron uptake by plants, especially in alkaline soils, and is typically applied through foliar sprays or irrigation systems to support healthy growth.

Industrial Uses

1. Agrochemicals

  • Micronutrient Fertilizer (Iron Source) : Provides readily available iron to plants, essential for chlorophyll synthesis and photosynthesis. Prevents and corrects iron chlorosis in crops grown on alkaline or calcareous soils where iron availability is limited.
  • Soil and Foliar Application : Used both in soil treatments and as a foliar spray to efficiently deliver iron, improving plant vigor, yield, and quality.
  • Hydroponics and Controlled Environment Agriculture : Vital in hydroponic nutrient solutions to maintain stable iron levels without precipitation, ensuring consistent plant growth.

2. Water Treatment

  • Iron Source for Chemical Processes : Used as a controlled iron source in various water treatment processes where iron plays a role in coagulation or oxidation.
  • Chelating Agent in Effluent Treatment : Helps bind free iron ions, preventing precipitation and scaling in water systems and improving process efficiency.

3. Performance Chemicals

  • Catalyst and Reaction Medium : Used as a source of iron ions in chemical reactions, particularly in organic synthesis or polymerization processes requiring controlled iron availability.
  • Stabilizer in Formulations : Acts as a metal ion stabilizer in industrial formulations, preventing unwanted precipitation of iron salts.
