1. Product Intoduction

Potassium nitrate is an inorganic substance commonly known as nitrate or soil nitrate. Kno3 refers to the nitrate of potassium. Potassium nitrate is a colorless transparent rhombic or rhombic crystal or white powder. Potassium nitrate is odorless, non-toxic, and has a salty and refreshing taste. Potassium nitrate has minimal moisture absorption in the air, is not prone to clumping, is soluble in water, can dissolve in liquid ammonia and glycerol, and is insoluble in anhydrous ethanol.

Potassium nitrate fertilizer is a chlorine free nitrogen potassium compound fertilizer with high solubility. Its effective components, nitrogen and potassium, can be quickly absorbed by crops without any chemical residue. Potassium nitrate is used as fertilizer and is suitable for vegetables, fruits, and flowers, as well as some chlorine sensitive crops (such as potatoes, strawberries, beans, cabbage, lettuce, peanuts, carrots, onions, blueberries, tobacco, apricots, grapefruit, and avocados).

Potassium nitrate is a strong oxidizing agent that can cause combustion and explosion when in contact with organic matter. Therefore, potassium nitrate should be stored in a cool and dry place, away from flames and heat sources. Avoid co storage and transportation with reducing agents, acids, flammable materials, and metal powders.

We have exported industrial grade potassium nitrate to Thailand several thousand tons in past 2023. Yixin potassium nitrate is polular in Thailand market. 

Advantages for potassium nitrate fertilizer

Potassium nitrate (KNO3) is a popular fertilizer used in agriculture due to its high potassium and nitrogen content. Here are some key features and benefits of potassium nitrate fertilizers:

Nutrient Content: Potassium nitrate is a rich source of both potassium (K) and nitrogen (N). It typically contains around 13.5% nitrogen and 46% potassium by weight, making it an excellent source of these essential nutrients for plants.

Water Solubility: Potassium nitrate is highly soluble in water, which means it can be easily dissolved and absorbed by plant roots. This solubility allows for efficient nutrient uptake by plants, ensuring that they receive the necessary nutrients in a readily available form.

Balanced Nutrient Ratio: The combination of nitrogen and potassium in potassium nitrate provides a balanced nutrient ratio that is beneficial for plant growth and development. Nitrogen is vital for leaf and stem growth, while potassium is essential for overall plant health, root development, and fruit production.
