BENTONITE
Product Description:
Bentonite granulated fertilizer base is a specialized formulation designed for use as a binding agent and structural component in the production of granulated fertilizers. It is composed primarily of high-quality bentonite clay, selected for its exceptional binding properties and ability to improve the physical characteristics of granular fertilizers.
Properties:-
- Binding: Bentonite granulated fertilizer base serves as an effective binding agent, facilitating the formation of durable and stable granules during the manufacturing process.
- Moisture Retention: It improves the moisture retention of fertilizer granules, reducing dust generation and preventing nutrient leaching during storage and application.
- Nutrient Release: Bentonite base gradually releases nutrients into the soil over time, providing a sustained supply of essential elements for plant growth and development.
- Soil Conditioning: It enhances soil structure and porosity, promoting better water infiltration, root penetration, and nutrient uptake by plants.
Applications:-
- Granulated Fertilizer Production: Bentonite granulated fertilizer base is used as a key ingredient in the manufacturing of granular fertilizers, providing cohesion and stability to the final product.
- Custom Formulations: It can be blended with other fertilizer ingredients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, micronutrients, and organic additives to create custom fertilizer formulations tailored to specific crop and soil requirements.
Advantages:-
- Enhanced Granule Integrity: Bentonite base improves the structural integrity of granulated fertilizers, reducing breakage, dust formation, and nutrient loss during handling and application.
- Uniform Nutrient Distribution: It ensures uniform distribution of nutrients within the fertilizer granules, promoting consistent nutrient availability and uptake by plants.
- Improved Soil Health: Bentonite base contributes to soil health and fertility by enhancing soil structure, moisture retention, and nutrient cycling, leading to better crop yields and quality.
- Environmentally Friendly: Bentonite is a natural, non-toxic mineral with minimal environmental impact, making it suitable for use in sustainable agricultural practices.
