Description

Diammonium [N,n-Bis[2-[Bis(Carboxymethyl)Amino]Ethyl]Glycinato(5-)]Ferrate(2-) is a high-purity, water-soluble iron complex belonging to the aminopolycarboxylate family, specifically a ferric chelate of diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA). This compound is valued for its exceptional stability and bioavailability of iron across a wide pH range, making it a superior source of essential iron in demanding applications. It is primarily utilized in industries requiring precise and stable iron supplementation, such as advanced agriculture, high-end nutritional formulations, and specialized chemical synthesis.

Application

• Agricultural Micronutrient Fertilizers: As a highly effective and stable source of chelated iron for foliar sprays and fertigation systems to correct iron chlorosis in crops, especially in high-pH or calcareous soils.
• Professional Horticulture & Hydroponics: A critical component in nutrient solutions for controlled-environment agriculture, ensuring optimal iron availability for plant growth.
• Pharmaceutical & Nutraceutical Intermediates: Used in the synthesis of iron supplements and contrast agents where a highly bioavailable and non-reactive iron source is required.
• Industrial Catalyst & Chemical Synthesis: Serves as a precursor or catalyst in specialized oxidation reactions and the synthesis of fine chemicals.
• Water Treatment & Chelating Agents: Employed in processes to control metal ion concentrations and prevent scale formation in industrial water systems.
• Research & Development: Used as a standard or reagent in analytical chemistry and biochemical research involving iron metabolism and chelation therapy.

Quality Control

Our Diammonium Ferric DTPA is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure it meets precise specifications for iron content, purity, and chelation efficacy. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing key parameters such as assay, heavy metals, and pH are provided to guarantee consistency and performance for your critical applications.

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); ensure the container is kept tightly sealed after each use to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can lead to caking or reduced stability.
