Ultrazine NA for efficient dispersion of zinc oxide

Laboratory work with Zinc oxide for a soluble fertilizer concentrate comparing with commercial reference

A commercial reference sample was analysed for dry matter and average particle size. A new formulation with Ultrazine NA at the same dry matter content of 57% zinc oxide was prepared. The shear viscosity of both formulations was measured to assess flow properties.


Key takeaways:

  • Better flow properties of the suspension with Ultrazine NA
  • No sediment observed after 2 weeks
  • Increased solids content possible, maintaining same flow properties of actual commercial product
