Industries
Ammonium Phosphate Used in the Agriculture Industry
Ammonium phosphate is a high-concentration NP compound fertiliser, supplying both nitrogen and phosphorus. Its aqueous solution is weakly acidic, ensuring prolonged nutrient release. Particularly suitable for phosphate-loving crops and alkaline soil amelioration. Commonly used as base fertiliser, seed fertiliser, or in fertigation blends.


Ammonium Phosphate Used in the Chemical Manufacturing Industry
Ammonium phosphate is used as a curing agent for urea-formaldehyde resin adhesives, and also as an additive-type flame retardant.
Ammonium Phosphate Used in the Firefighting Industry
Ammonium phosphate is the key component in ABC dry powder fire extinguishers Also used as a high-performance flame retardant in wood, paper, textiles, and intumescent fire-retardant coatings.


Ammonium Phosphate Used in the Food Industry
Ammonium phosphate is utilised as a food additive (acidity regulator, leavening agent, yeast nutrient) for bread formulation, dairy processing and wine fermentation.
