Overview of MAP-K Potassiam Monoalkyl Phosphate

Potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KH2PO4) is a white, odorless, and tasteless inorganic compound easily soluble in water. It has deliquescence and turns into a transparent liquid when heated to 400 ℃. After cooling, it becomes glassy potassium metaphosphate. It is used in industry as a buffer, culture agent, seasoning agent, raw material manufacturing, etc., and in agriculture as an efficient phosphorus potassium compound fertilizer and foliar fertilizer, promoting crop yield increase. The foliar spraying concentration is 0.3%, and the seed fertilizer soaking concentration is 0.2%~0.5%. It is necessary to store moisture-proof in a ventilated, dry, cool, and clean warehouse and avoid co-storage with toxic substances. Potassium dihydrogen phosphate is a multifunctional compound widely used in industrial and agricultural fields.

In addition, it can effectively promote the growth and development of root systems and improve crop rooting, frost resistance, and stress resistance.

4. Promoting photosynthesis: Potassium dihydrogen phosphate can promote the photosynthesis of crops, promote cell division, delay leaf senescence, increase pollination and fruit setting during flowering, and regulate the distribution of nutrients in plants.

5. Improving quality: Applying potassium dihydrogen phosphate to fruits and vegetables can enhance taste, extend shelf life, and improve transportation quality. Applying it to field crops not only has a good taste but also has high nutritional value.

6. Easy to apply: The application amount of potassium dihydrogen phosphate is small and easy to apply, with low investment and high returns. The usual concentration for foliar spraying is 0.3%. When used as seed fertilizer, the seeds must be soaked in a potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution with a concentration of 0.2%~0.5% for 18-20 hours.

Application of MAP-K Potassiam Monoalkyl Phosphate

1.Agricultural field: Potassium dihydrogen phosphate is an ideal foliar fertilizer. Its pure product is white crystals, and the solution is acidic, non-toxic, odorless, non-volatile, and non-deliquescent. It has stable properties and is easily absorbed and utilized by plants. During specific growth stages of crops, such as the initial flowering and fruiting stages of eggplant vegetables, foliar spraying with a dilute solution of potassium dihydrogen phosphate can achieve good yield-increasing effects on crops. In addition, it can also be used as a seed fertilizer. Soaking the seeds in a potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution with a concentration of 0.2%~0.5% for 18-20 hours can help improve the seeds' germination rate and growth potential.

Storage Conditions:

1. Moisture proof and sealing: Due to the moisture absorption of potassium dihydrogen phosphate, it should be stored in a dry, draught, and cool environment, avoiding direct sunlight and high temperature and humidity. The storage temperature must generally be below 25 ℃, and the relative humidity should not be beyond 60%. Storage containers should be sealed to prevent them from absorbing moisture from the air and reacting with other substances in the air.

2. Avoid contact with other chemicals: Potassium dihydrogen phosphate may react with certain chemicals (such as ammonia chemical reagents, alkali chemical reagents, etc.), so it should be avoided from being placed together with other chemicals.

3. Clear labeling: The container for storing potassium dihydrogen phosphate must indicate its name, properties, hazards, and other information to avoid storage confusion or misuse.

4. Control storage time: It is recommended that the storage period of potassium dihydrogen phosphate should not exceed 24 months. After exceeding this deadline, it is necessary to recheck whether its quality still meets the requirements for use.

FAQ

Q1

What are the phosphorus and potassium contents of MAP-K potassium dihydrogen phosphate as an efficient phosphorus-potassium compound fertilizer?

Re:MAP-K potassium dihydrogen phosphate is an efficient phosphorus potassium compound fertilizer with a phosphorus content of 22.8% and a potassium content of 28.6%. These component ratios make them an indispensable source of nutrients for crop growth. Phosphorus is an important component of plant cell walls and nuclei, which helps promote root growth and enhance plant stress resistance. Conversely, potassium participates in plants' photosynthesis and respiration and significantly impacts their growth and yield. The phosphorus and potassium elements in MAP-K potassium dihydrogen phosphate exist in a form that is easily absorbed by plants, which can quickly supplement nutrient deficiencies in the soil and promote the healthy growth of crops.

Q2

Why do we usually choose a concentration of 0.3% when spraying potassium dihydrogen phosphate on leaves?

Re:When foliar spraying potassium dihydrogen phosphate, a concentration of 0.3% is usually chosen because it can provide the phosphorus and potassium elements required by the crop while avoiding the risk of leaf burns caused by high concentrations and the inability to achieve ideal results due to low concentrations. The concentration of 0.3% has been verified through scientific research and practical application. It can ensure that crops fully absorb nutrients without causing damage to leaves, thus maximizing the foliar fertilization effect of potassium dihydrogen phosphate.

Q3

How does the deliquescence of MAP-K potassium dihydrogen phosphate affect its storage and transportation?

Re:The deliquescence of MAP-K potassium dihydrogen phosphate means it is prone to absorbing moisture from the air and causing clumping or dissolution, posing certain storage and transportation challenges. To ensure the quality and stability of MAP-K potassium dihydrogen phosphate, it is necessary to store it in a ventilated, dry, cool, and clean warehouse and take sealed and moisture-proof measures to prevent it from absorbing moisture from the air and clumping. During transportation, it is also necessary to avoid rain and direct sunlight to prevent the deliquescence and deterioration of potassium dihydrogen phosphate. Therefore, special attention should be paid to moisture-proof and sun protection measures for storing and transporting MAP-K potassium dihydrogen phosphate to ensure its quality and stability.

Q4

How environmentally friendly and safe is MAP-K potassium dihydrogen phosphate?

Re:MAP-K potassium dihydrogen phosphate, as an inorganic compound, has relatively high environmental protection and safety. It does not generate toxic and harmful substances during production and use, and its impact on the environment and human health is relatively small. Meanwhile, MAP-K potassium dihydrogen phosphate is easy to degrade and decompose and will not cause long-term environmental pollution.
