Anticaking Agent

Anticaking Agent

Caking is a complex phenomenon. It is primarily dependent on the chemical composition of the Fertilizer. Depending upon the chemical composition, different fertilizers have different CRH (Critical Relative Humidity). The CRH for various Fertilizers are as given below:

	% CRH
UREA	72.5
AMMONIUM NITRATE	59.5
AMMONIUM CHLORIDE	77.2
CALCIUM NITRATE	46.7
DAP	82.5
MAP	91.6
CALCIUM NITRATE + AMMONIUM NITRATE	23.5
AMMONIUM NITRATE+ AMMONIUM CHLORIDE	18.1

Low CRH of fertilizer means, it will absorb moisture from the environment. Hence, such fertilizers are more prone to moisture absorption and caking.
The caking phenomenon is further accelerated by the presence of moisture, pressure and storage conditions.
Neelam Aqua & Speciality Chem, manufactures anticaking agents for a wide variety of applications.
We have specialized anticaking agents for granular NPK / DAP/MAP fertilizers. Depending upon the grade of fertilizers like 15-15-15 or 19-19-19, or 28-28-0, the most suitable anticaking agent is suggested . A brief list of anticaking agent for NPK fertilizers are as given below:
