With low chloride content.
ECC FERTILIZER
The water-soluble potassium sulphate LC, that is, with low chloride content, is produced using a specific inorganic process, which guarantees the absence of toxic and harmful substances to the environment and which gives the product the particular properties that characterize it.
Identification of the product
Chemical Name: Potassium Sulphate
EINECS no. 231-915-5
CAS no. 7778-80-5
Properties
The water-soluble potassium sulphate LC is a product which has a typical titre of 52% K2O (which corresponds to 96.1% K2SO4) and a very low average chloride content, amounting to 0.7% Cl (which corresponds to 1.5% KCl). It’s also perfectly soluble in water without leaving any non-dissolved residues, and is characterized by a granulometry specifically designed to allow for its rapid dissolution.
We remind you that by law potassium sulphate, to be defined and sold as fertilizer, should have a minimum titre of 47% K2O and a maximum chloride content of 3% Cl.
Areas of application
This type of product is suitable to be used mainly in agriculture as a fertilizer, especially by those who use fertigation methods. But its potential areas of application are broader, such as:
Fertilizer in agriculture
Hardener in the production of cements and plasters
Additive for detergents
Raw material for chemical synthesis
Packaging, storage, handling
The water-soluble potassium sulphate LC is supplied in big bags containing 1300 kg or 500 kg, or in 25-kg bags.
Given its non-dangerous nature, there are no special precautions for the use of the product; however, For handling and any other information concerning users’ safety and health, please refer to the Material Safety Data Sheet, which should be peremptorily requested at the time of the first order.
