The efficacy of agricultural inputs often hinges on complex chemical interactions, and EDTA Ferric Sodium Salt (CAS 15708-41-5) is a prime example. As a leading manufacturer and supplier specializing in agricultural chemicals, we understand the intricate science that makes this compound a cornerstone for combating iron deficiency in plants. Its effectiveness stems from its structure as a stable, water-soluble iron chelate.

At its core, EDTA Ferric Sodium Salt involves the ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) molecule acting as a ligand. EDTA is a hexadentate chelating agent, meaning it has six points of attachment – four carboxylate groups and two amine groups – that can bind to a metal ion. In this case, it tightly binds to the ferric iron (Fe³⁺) ion, forming a highly stable complex. This chelation process is critical because it shields the iron from reacting with other elements in the soil, such as phosphates or carbonates, which would otherwise precipitate the iron, making it inaccessible to plants.

The resulting EDTA-FeNa complex is not only stable but also highly soluble in water. This solubility ensures that when applied to the soil or as a foliar spray, the iron remains in a mobile form, ready for uptake by plant roots or leaves. For agricultural scientists and procurement managers, this means a more efficient delivery of iron, which is vital for numerous plant physiological processes. Iron is a key component in chlorophyll formation, essential for photosynthesis. It also acts as a cofactor for many enzymes involved in respiration and metabolic pathways. Without adequate iron, plants exhibit symptoms like interveinal chlorosis, reduced growth, and lower yields.
