Description

n-(Phosphonomethyl)Glycine Monoammonium Salt is the ammonium salt derivative of glyphosate, a globally recognized non-selective herbicide active ingredient. This formulation offers enhanced solubility and handling properties compared to the free acid, making it a critical intermediate for the production of high-performance agricultural formulations. It is essential for manufacturers developing post-emergent, broad-spectrum herbicide products targeting weeds in agricultural, industrial, and non-crop settings. The compound's systemic action provides effective control of a wide range of annual and perennial plants.

Application

• Primary Herbicide Intermediate: Serves as a key technical material for formulating soluble concentrates (SL), aqueous solutions (AS), and other glyphosate-based herbicide end-products.
• Agricultural Weed Control: Used in the manufacturing of herbicides for crops such as soybeans, corn, cotton, and canola, often in conjunction with genetically modified, glyphosate-tolerant varieties.
• Industrial Vegetation Management: A component in herbicides for managing weeds along railways, roadways, utilities rights-of-way, and in industrial areas.
• Non-Selective Herbicide Production: Formulated into products for total vegetation control in orchards, vineyards, and prior to crop planting (burndown applications).
• Research & Development: Utilized in agrochemical R&D for developing new formulation technologies and synergistic mixtures.

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 material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); the original container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can lead to caking or reduced flowability.
