It functions as an emulsifier, helping to keep two immiscible liquids together, used in foods like margarine and butter. When used with other antioxidants, it helps increase antioxidant activity, extending the shelf life of foods rich in fats.

It is used as a potassium and phosphorus-rich fertilizer, supporting healthy plant growth and development. It is used reactively in chemical reactions, employed in the production of products like soap and detergents. It is used as a catalyst to accelerate chemical reactions, used in the production of products like plastics and rubber.

Benefits of Dipotassium Phosphate

Supports muscle function: Potassium is an essential mineral for muscle function, aiding in the transmission of nerve signals and muscle contraction.

Supports bone health: Phosphorus is a key component of bones and teeth, helping to keep them strong and healthy.

Aids in energy production: Phosphorus plays a crucial role in energy production, aiding in the production of ATP, a molecule used by cells for energy.

Reduces kidney stone risk: Dipotassium phosphate is believed to increase calcium excretion in urine, which may help prevent the formation of kidney stones.

Dipotassium phosphate is found in various foods, including

• Dairy products
• Meat and poultry
• Fish
• Nuts and seeds
• Legumes
• Whole grains
• Dried fruits and vegetables

Applications: Food Industry, Agriculture, Chemical Industry, Dentistry, Medicine, Water treatment 

Monoammonium phosphate (MAP) is a widely used fertilizer in agriculture. Rich in phosphorus and nitrogen, MAP provides essential nutrients for healthy plant growth and development.

• It rapidly dissolves in water and moist soil, facilitating easy nutrient uptake by plants.
• It is available in granular form, making it easy to spread on soil or mix with irrigation water.
• It does not contain substances harmful to plants such as chlorine, sodium, and heavy metals.
• It can be used for pre-planting fertilization, side dressing, and drip irrigation.

Benefits of MAP

• Stimulates plant growth and development.
• Aids in strengthening the root system.
• Increases flowering and fruit yield.
• Enhances plants' resistance to stress and diseases.

Applications of MAP

• Field crops: Wheat, corn, barley, soybeans, cotton, etc.
• Garden crops: Tomatoes, peppers, eggplants, cucumbers, squash, etc.
• Fruit trees: Apple, pear, grape, orange, lemon, etc.
• Ornamental plants: Rose, begonia, petunia, etc.

Tributoxyethyl Phosphate (TBEP)

It is a colourless and oily chemical compound. It is slightly soluble in water and easily soluble in organic solvents. TBEP is a versatile chemical used in many different areas.

It is used to retard the ignition of flammable materials such as plastics, rubber and textiles.

It is used to make plastics softer and more flexible.

It is used to dissolve other chemicals.

Used to prevent foam formation in some liquids.

Areas of use of TBEP: Plastic and rubber industry, Textile industry, Paint and varnish industry, Metal processing industry.

Dipotassium Phosphate

Phosphates are salts or esters of phosphoric acid. It is one of the basic elements that must be taken in the human body.

Phosphates are used as melting salts in the production of processed cheese. They give processed cheeses their soft texture, elasticity, spreadability and creaminess.

It is very important to choose the right phosphates, which can be used alone or as a mixture in products such as spreadable cheese, toast cheese, cream cheese, pizza cheese, to obtain the appropriate texture for the product. Choices should be made that can provide effective melting efficiency and ion exchange for cream and triangular cheeses, and that improve the creep and sliceability properties for block and local cheeses.

Mono Ammonium Phosphate 

• Appearance: Colorless
• Chemical Name: Ammonium phosphate

• Packaging Type: 25 Kg. in sacks

Definition and Areas of Use

This substance is soluble in water and dissolves rapidly in sufficiently moist soil. Growers apply granular mono ammonium phosphate near the plant's growing roots or in surface bands. In addition, it is widely spread on the land and mixed into the soil. No special precautions are required for this item. Mono ammonium phosphate, used as a foliar spray or added to irrigation water; It should not be mixed with calcium or magnesium fertilizers.

There are various areas of use in the agricultural field. Since all the nitrogen in its fertilizer is ammonia nitrogen, it is controlled for plants. If this substance is used in drip irrigation, if the pH value of the fertilized water is created in a mild and acidic way, all the necessary substances will be easily absorbed by the plants.

Mono Ammonium Phosphate; It is a widely used source of phosphorus and nitrogen. These substances used in the fertilizer industry are contained in solid fertilizers. Mono ammonium phosphate manufacturing process can be done by applying simple methods. As a method; ammonia content and phosphoric acid are reacted. After this process, solidification is carried out.

The other method is to mix it with different fertilizers. Mono ammonium phosphate fertilizer is a fertilizer containing the highest amount of phosphate among phosphorus fertilizers. It does not contain any harmful substances and does not harm plants. Ammonium phosphate application is made to the soil before planting. It is also used for main fertilization and pre-plant fertilization of fruit crops, grape vines, plants and flowers. This article; It is stored in closed, cold and dry buildings. It is transported packaged or in bulk.

MAP (12-61-0) is a completely water-soluble fertilizer. Its formula is NH4H2PO4 - 12% N (nitrogen) + 61% P2O5 (phosphorus). It is the type of fertilizer containing the highest amount of phosphate among phosphate source fertilizers. Thanks to the low amount of nitrogen it contains, it is the most suitable way to provide plants with the desired amount of phosphorus. Since it does not contain any substances that can harm plants, such as chlorine, sodium and heavy metals, it can be used safely in all products. Since all nitrogen in MAP fertilizer is ammonia nitrogen, this element reaches the plants in a controlled manner.

Usage areas

• It is a product that provides ease of use in terms of storage and transportation. In its high purity rate, it is used as a feed additive for animals.

• In mono ammonium phosphate application, it can be used in various irrigation techniques with the melting method.

• It increases the resistance of plants to stress and diseases.

• Provides balance during the reproductive phase.

• In adverse conditions, it stimulates the growth of sprouts, ensures flowering and affects the growth of fruits.

• It improves the durability properties of fruits.

Tributoxyethyl Phosphate

TBEP

Aids surface finishes, leveling and shine. TBEP is a light colored, high boiling point, non-flammable viscous liquid. It is generally used as a plasticizer in rubber and plastics, pigmented systems, and helps in the formation and leveling of floor polish (and other surface coatings) and increases gloss.

TBEP or tributoxyethyl phosphate is widely used as a plasticizer and flame retardant in various industries. When added to floor care formulations, TBEP can provide significant benefits. TBEP provides low temperature flexibility, good elasticity, low compression set and is non-reactive.
