Phosphoric Acid 85%

Phosphoric Acid 85%

Phosphoric acid (H₃PO₄) is colorless, odorless, non-volatile liquid highly soluble in water. It's an industrial/agricultural grade often used, the "85%" being the concentration in water. It is a moderately strong acid that is widely used in the manufacture of fertilizers, food grade, and many other chemical processes. Thus, phosphoric acid is important in agriculture as a source of phosphorus (an essential macronutrient for all plants) for soils and the general enhancement of soil fertility

via pH control, as it is generally considered a very rich source of phosphorus.

Benefits

  • Source of Phosphorus
  • Phosphoric acid supplies phosphorus in a form that can be readily absorbed by crops, critical for root growth, flowering, and seed formation.
  • Improves Soil Fertility
  • Improves phosphorus in soil so that more phosphorus can be taken by crops.
  • Regulates pH
  • Read morenFor acidifying alkaline soils or irrigation water, improving nutrient uptake and microbial action.
  • Boosts Crop Yield
  • Essential for processes like photosynthesis, energy transfer (ATP production), and cellular development, contributing to better crop yield and quality.
  • Eco-Friendly
  • If used properly, does not leave harmful residues in the soil, making it a part of sustainable agriculture systems.

Uses

  • Fertilizer Production
  • Phosphate Fertilizers
  • This phosphoric acid is utilized in the manufacture of water-soluble phosphate fertilizers such as monoammonium phosphate (MAP) and diammonium phosphate (DAP).
  • Liquid Fertilizers
  • An essential ingredient in liquid fertilizers for targeted nutrient delivery via drip irrigation or as foliar sprays.
  • Soil Amendment
  • pH Adjustment
  • Commonly added to alkaline soils to reduce pH, increasing solubility and availability of nutrients.
  • Phosphorus Enrichment
  • Applying it directly to deficient soils improves fertility and crop growth.
  • Irrigation Water Treatment
  • Acidification
  • It is used to acidify irrigation water and prevent the precipitation of nutrients like calcium and magnesium that can block the drip irrigation systems.
  • Nutrient Solution of Hydroponics
  • Phosphate 6/8 Hydroponics—Provides phosphorus in hydroponic systems for healthy plant growth Keeps nutrient solutions in proper pH range.
  • Crop Protection
  • Disease Prevention
  • Used in very small amounts to improve plant resistance to some fungal and bacterial diseases.
