Product Description
Diammonium phosphate (DAP) plays a crucial role in global agriculture as the most popular and economical form of phosphate fertilizer.
DAP is an extensively employed inorganic compound, recognized by its chemical formula (NH4)2HPO4.
DAP is highly soluble and readily available to plants as a source of phosphorus and nitrogen, two essential nutrients that support root development and enhance crop yield.
It appears as a white crystalline powder and is applied to the soil, where it temporarily increases the soil pH, thus making it slightly more alkaline upon application but eventually becoming more neutral as the plant absorbs the nutrients.
The production of DAP includes the chemical reaction between ammonia and phosphoric acid under controlled conditions. Its ease of handling, storage, and application, coupled with its effectiveness as a fertilizer, is making DAP a preferred choice among farmers around the world.
