Zinc/Copper
Description
Micronutrient coating for granular fertiliser.
Dispersion of ultra-fine Zinc & Cuprous Oxide particles in a stable fluid base that flows easily and cures or sets on the fertiliser granule’s surface in a thin film, within seconds of application.
Typical spcecifications
Cuprous Oxide: 19.17%
Zinc Oxide: 41.67%
Copper analysis: 16.6%
Zinc analysis: 33.4%
Specific Gravity: 2 (1 L = 2 kg)
Appearance: pink coloured, viscous liquid
Packaging & storage
600L (1200kg) in a 1000L IBC.
Store with lid closed in warehouse – not in direct sunlight.
Qualities
The base liquid is an environmentally friendly formulation, fully biodegradable, not toxic and beneficial to soil organisms.
Dispersed Cuprous & Zinc oxide particles has a max particle diameter of 5 microns.
This provides excellent adhesion to granules and a huge surface area for fast conversion/breakdown rates and availability for plant uptake.
Warning: Hazardous component
This product contains Zinc & Copper, both marine pollutants, which can be harmful if swallowed. See product SDS for specific hazards.
Application Rate
1 kg coating per ton fertiliser = 0.5 kg Cu & Zn or 0.05% analysis.
10 kg coating per ton fertiliser = 5.0 kg Cu & Zn or 0.50% analysis.
20 kg coating per ton fertiliser = 10 kg Cu & Zn or 1.0% analysis.
Directions for use
IBCs containing SATS CuZn should be mixed at least once per week with an IBC mixer or similar.
Apply to granular fertiliser in a batch mixer or continuous blending system.
Coverage is improved by granule movement.
Application can be via spray nozzles or drip-bar.
Do not employ a filter or strainer in the liquid stream.
SATS CuZn should not be diluted, but can be co-applied with fungicides or soil enhancers.
Spray systems should be flushed if not used regularly.
