Improving the product characteristics of ammonium nitrate, such as caking, white color, shape and strength of granules. Also reduces sulfate deposits thereby extending equipment life.
AgroMag® is a milled brucite mineral with a high magnesium content compared to other similar magnesium minerals, it is therefore used widely in the production of ammonium nitrate.
Unlike organic anti-caking agents, AgroMag® is introduced into the melt of ammonium nitrate as a solution of magnesium nitrate. AgroMag® not only significantly reduces the caking and porosity of fertilizers, but also significantly improves color, increases the strength of granules and optimizes the particle-size composition of fertilizers through enlargement of granules.
The recommended product in this area is AgroMag® 600.
AgroMag advantages
01 Reduces deposits in the system due to its very low sulfate content and the amount of sludge in the finished product
02Produces high whiteness in ammonium nitrate granules due to its low iron content
03The highest magnesium content compared to other magnesia minerals
04Does not emit CO2 when dissolved
05 Reduces losses of nitric acid due to the optimal temperature of the dissolution process 85-95 °C
06 Economic efficiency compared to organic conditioning additives
