Production Technology
Potassium dihydrogen phosphate trihydrate is produced through a
controlled reaction of high-purity phosphoric acid and potassium
hydroxide, followed by crystallization under regulated conditions
to obtain the trihydrate form.
Theory
Potassium dihydrogen phosphate trihydrate provides phosphorus (P)
and potassium (K), which are essential macronutrients for plant
growth. Phosphorus promotes root and flower development, while
potassium enhances water retention, nutrient transport, and stress
resistance in plants.
