Description

Chlorocholine Sulfate is a quaternary ammonium salt widely recognized for its potent plant growth-regulating properties. This compound is essential for agricultural and horticultural applications where controlled plant morphology and enhanced stress resistance are required. It is a critical raw material for manufacturers of plant growth regulators targeting global markets in crop production, ornamental horticulture, and turf management.

Application

• Plant Growth Regulator (PGR) Formulations: Primary active ingredient in products designed to inhibit stem elongation and promote sturdier, more compact plant growth.
• Agricultural Crop Management: Used to improve lodging resistance in cereal crops like wheat, barley, and rice, leading to better yield and harvest efficiency.
• Ornamental Horticulture: Applied in the production of compact, bushier flowering plants and bedding plants for commercial nurseries and greenhouses.
• Turf Management: Employed to reduce vertical growth and mowing frequency on golf courses, sports fields, and high-maintenance lawns.
• Chemical Intermediate: Serves as a key synthetic intermediate in the production of other specialized quaternary ammonium compounds.
• Research & Development: Used in biochemical and agricultural research studies investigating plant physiology and the effects of growth retardants.

Quality Control

Our Chlorocholine Sulfate is manufactured under a stringent quality management system. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure it meets precise specifications for purity, identity, and performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting key parameters such as assay, impurity profile, and physical characteristics are provided to guarantee supply reliability and batch-to-batch consistency for your formulations.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect quality and handling properties.
