EDTA MAGNESIUM 

DESCRIPTION

EDTA Magnesium is a stable water-soluble metal chelate. It has the ability to form complexes with metal ions, such as calcium, iron, and magnesium. EDTA-Mg is an important raw material and intermediate used in organic synthesis over a broad pH range in aqueous systems.

SPECIFICATIONS

AVA Chemicals is the leading manufacturer and exporter of EDTA Disodium Magnesium in India.

EDTA Disodium Magnesium is not a specific chemical compound but rather a mixture of two substances: disodium salt of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and magnesium. EDTA is a chelating agent, meaning it has the ability to form complexes with metal ions, such as calcium, iron, and magnesium. The disodium salt of EDTA is often used in various industrial and pharmaceutical applications, including as a food preservative, in chelation therapy to treat heavy metal poisoning, and in cosmetics and personal care products.

AVA Chemicals also provide Customized / Special grades  EDTA Mg  as per customer requirements.

Applications

• Agriculture:
  • Used as a micronutrient to correct magnesium deficiencies in the plants.
  • Suitable for soil or foliar applications, particularly in acidic or sandy soils where magnesium leaching is common.
  • Plays a vital role in chlorophyll formation and photosynthesis, supporting healthy plant growth.
• Horticulture:
  • Ideal for magnesium-demanding crops like citrus, tomatoes, and leafy greens.
  • Promotes vibrant foliage, enhanced fruit quality, and overall plant vigour.
• Animal Nutrition:
  • Supplemented in animal feed to ensure adequate magnesium intake, crucial for muscle function, nerve signalling, and bone health.
  • Prevents hypomagnesemia (grass tetany) in grazing livestock.
• Industrial Uses:

Benefits

• Enhanced Bioavailability:
  • Chelation ensures magnesium remains soluble and accessible for absorption by plants and animals.
• Efficient Correction of Deficiencies:
  • Effectively addresses magnesium deficiencies, which can lead to yellowing leaves (interveinal chlorosis) in plants and metabolic disorders in animals.
• Soil Compatibility:
  • Performs well in soils with varying pH levels, preventing magnesium fixation in acidic or alkaline conditions.
• Easy Integration:
  • Mixes well with other fertilizers and agrochemicals, allowing for flexible application methods.
• Improved Productivity:
  • Supports optimal plant and animal health, leading to better yields, higher-quality crops, and improved livestock performance.

Environmental Considerations
EDTA Magnesium minimizes nutrient losses by delivering magnesium directly where needed, reducing the risk of leaching and runoff. Proper management and adherence to application guidelines are necessary to ensure sustainable use and prevent environmental accumulation of chelating agents.

EDTA Magnesium is a versatile and efficient solution for magnesium supplementation in agriculture, horticulture, and animal nutrition. Its benefits in correcting deficiencies, enhancing productivity, and compatibility with diverse conditions make it an essential component in nutrient management programs.
