EDTA Zinc
Zinc EDTA is a popular form of zinc supplement used in agriculture and horticulture to address zinc deficiencies in plants. It provides a readily available and easily absorbable form of zinc that can be applied through foliar spray or soil application.
Chelated Zinc EDTA is extensively used initialism for the chemical compounds ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid. These colorless, water-soluble solid is widely used to dissolve scale. The usefulness of compound arises because of its role as a chelating agent, i.e. its ability to “sequester” metal ions such as Ca2+ and Fe3+. We can offer ZN EDTA in variety of grades and compositions based upon the requirement of the clients.
Prashant Chemicals offered is available in from of white powder with molecular weight of 435. It has assay (min) of 12. 0 % as Zn and has high demand in the market because of its pure constitution.
Prashant Chemicals is the leading manufacturer of Fully Chelated ZN EDTA in India. We offer it, which is processed using the best quality chemicals and sophisticated technology by our adept professionals. It is used as a Chelating and Sequestering Agent Even it is a stable water-soluble metal chelate used to prevent and correct zinc deficiencies

Applications
- Agriculture:
- Corrects zinc deficiencies in crops, particularly in soils with high pH or high phosphate levels where zinc availability is limited.
- Used in soil applications or as a foliar spray to ensure rapid uptake.
- Promotes enzyme activity, growth regulation, and synthesis of plant hormones like auxins.
- Horticulture:
- Crucial for zinc-demanding plants such as citrus, maize, and rice.
- Enhances flowering, fruit development, and disease resistance in fruits, vegetables, and ornamental plants.
- Animal Nutrition:
- Supplemented in animal feed to support immune function, reproductive health, and enzymatic processes.
- Prevents zinc deficiency-related issues such as growth retardation and poor skin condition in livestock.
- Industrial Uses:
- Used in specific manufacturing processes where a stable zinc source is required, including catalysis and specialty chemical formulations.
Benefits
- Improved Bioavailability:
- Chelation ensures that zinc remains soluble and easily absorbed, even in challenging soil or dietary conditions.
- Efficient Deficiency Management:
- Quickly addresses zinc deficiencies, which otherwise can lead to stunted growth, chlorosis, and reduced crop yields.
- Broad Compatibility:
- Works effectively across a wide range of soil types and integrates seamlessly with other fertilizers and agrochemicals.
- Enhanced Productivity:
- Supports better crop health, improved yields, and higher-quality produce.
- Contributes to healthier and more productive livestock.
- Reduced Environmental Impact:
- Targeted delivery, minimizes nutrient loss through leaching or runoff, promoting sustainable nutrient management.
Application
- Agricultural Use: Zinc is an essential micronutrient for plant growth, and zinc EDTA is commonly used in agriculture as a source of zinc in fertilizers. The chelated form of zinc helps improve the stability and availability of zinc for plants, preventing and correcting zinc deficiencies.
- Chelating Properties: Zinc EDTA exhibits chelating properties, enabling it to form stable complexes with metal ions, particularly zinc. This enhances the solubility and bioavailability of zinc for plant uptake.
- Preventing Zinc Deficiency: Zinc deficiency in plants can lead to symptoms such as stunted growth, yellowing of leaves, and reduced yield. Zinc EDTA is used to address and prevent such deficiencies.
- Nutritional Supplements: Zinc is an essential mineral for human nutrition. In some cases, zinc EDTA may be used as a source of zinc in nutritional supplements, as the chelated form may enhance bioavailability.
- Water Treatment: Chelated zinc, including zinc EDTA, may be used in water treatment to sequester zinc ions and prevent issues such as staining and corrosion.
- Industrial Applications: Zinc EDTA may find applications in various industrial processes where controlled release of zinc is important for specific reactions or formulations.
