Nutrient release modifiers include polymer coatings that control dissolution rates and sulfur-based coatings that provide both nutrient and protection functions. We also provide specialized coatings that can include micronutrients, beneficial bacteria, or other additives that enhance the fertilizer’s value.
Technical Considerations:
The effectiveness of coating depends on several factors including granule surface characteristics, with smooth, uniform granules typically accepting coatings more effectively than irregular surfaces. Proper moisture content before coating is critical, as excessive moisture can interfere with coating adhesion while overly dry surfaces may not retain coating materials effectively.
The coating thickness must be carefully controlled, as insufficient coating may not provide the desired benefits while excessive coating can unnecessarily increase costs and potentially affect nutrient availability.
Equipment Specifications:
Our coating systems are available in various sizes to match different production capacities, from small batch units to high-volume continuous systems.
The equipment features stainless steel construction in critical areas to resist corrosion from coating materials, and includes precision metering systems that ensure accurate coating application rates. Automated control systems maintain consistent coating quality throughout production runs.
Product-Specific Recommendations:
The need for coating varies significantly by product type. For standard NPK fertilizers, basic anti-dust coatings are often sufficient and provide good return on investment.
