USAGE AREAS

USAGE IN THE FORMULATION OF PLANT NUTRITION AND PROTECTION PRODUCTS

It is used as a supplement in plant protection WG formulations. It is used as a zinc trace element source in the formulation of liquid plant nutrition products due to its high solubility in water. You can contact our company for detailed information and technical support regarding the use of zinc sulphate heptahydrate in the formulation of plant protection and nutrition products.

AGRICULTURE

Zinc sulphate heptahydrate can be used as a raw material in the formulation of plant protection and nutrition products and in other industrial applications, while it can also be used as a direct fertilizer in agriculture. By regulating soil pH, it increases the plant's water holding capacity and product productivity. It prevents the yellowing of the leaves, premature shedding and shrinkage. Increases shoot number and fruit set in fruit trees. Zinc deficiency is one of the most common micronutrient deficiencies in crops and pastures in the world, causing major losses in crop production and crop quality. 

FEED ADDITIVE

In the feed additive industry, it is used as a zinc trace element source in mineral element mixture formulations which is prepared to meet the mineral needs of animals. Trace elements are important in animal nutrition. Even in small amounts, they are related to the function of enzymes and hormones. For example, zinc deficiency causes poor growth, loss of appetite and a poor feed conversion rate. It also has an important function in defense enzymes.

INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS

It is used as an astringent (blood stopper) in the pharmaceutical industry, in the treatment of acne due to its healing and anti-inflammatory properties, and in the flotation of some metal ores in the mining industry. It is used as an important component of precipitation baths in zinc plating electrolyte and as a mordant in dyeing. The aqueous solution of zinc sulfate heptahydrate is widely used in animal footbaths for the treatment and prevention of foot bacteria in sheep and cattle. It is also used as a hardener in silk production and as a component of lithopone pigment.
