Copper Oxychloride(Basic copper chloride)
This product is mainly used in agricultural intermediates, pharmaceutical intermediates, feed additives and wood preservatives.
What are the specific applications of Copper Oxychloride in the field?
Copper Oxychloride is an important component of wood preservatives
ADVANTAGE: Copper Oxychloride as a raw material for wood preservatives can effectively extend the life of wood, improve its durability, and prevent pest infestation.
Copper Oxychloride can be used as a feed additive
ADVANTAGE: Copper Oxychloride is a trace mineral used as a copper source for feeds and contains up to 58% copper. This alkali salt is insoluble in water but dissolves very quickly in the intestinal tract of animals. Compared to other copper sources, CuCl2 is highly utilizable and dissolves quickly in the digestive tract. It is stable and has low hygroscopicity and does not accelerate the oxidation of vitamins and antibiotics. The biological effectiveness and biosafety of basic copper chloride is higher than that of copper sulfate. And the use of copper is 25% to 30% less than copper sulfate, which can completely replace copper sulfate.
Copper oxychloride can be used as pharmaceutical intermediates.
ADVANTAGE:Copper Oxychloride has non-hygroscopic caking, good fluidity, high bioavailability, and can also greatly reduce the environmental pollution of copper excretion, which is also important for the protection of the ecological environment.
Copper oxychloride is used as a pesticide intermediate.
ADVANTAGE:1.Copper is the component or activator of many enzymes in crops, which is related to the REDOX reaction and respiration in crops. In fat metabolism, the desaturation and hydroxylation of lipase require the catalysis of copper-containing enzymes. Since copper plays an important role in the metabolism of main substances in crops, copper application can significantly improve crop growth and achieve high yield.
2.Copper participates in photosynthesis Copper is a lipid component in chloroplasts, combines with organic matter to form copper protein, participates in photosynthesis, enhances the stability of chlorophyll and other plant pigments, and promotes the formation of chlorophyll. Copper deficiency in crops reduces chlorophyll content.
3.Copper involved in protein and carbohydrate metabolism can promote amino acid activation and protein synthesis, and affect the symbiotic nitrogen fixation of rhizobia.
4.Copper can promote the development of flower organs. As the activator of nitrite reductase and subnitrite reductase, copper participates in the nitric acid reduction process in crops. Copper is also a reducing agent of amine oxidase, which plays a catalytic oxidation deamination role and affects protein synthesis. In the process of crop reproductive growth, copper can also promote the transport of nitrogen-containing compounds in vegetative organs to reproductive organs. Copper deficiency obviously affects the reproductive growth of gramineous crops. In the absence of copper, the yield of straw was higher, but the yield of straw could not bear fruit.
5.Copper plays an important role in lignin synthesis. Copper deficiency in crops can lead to the obstruction of the synthesis of technical quality, the dysplasia of sachyma and delivery tissues, the softening of supporting tissues, and the deterioration of water transport in crops. Copper can promote the lignification and polymer synthesis of plant cell wall, thereby increasing the ability of plant to resist pathogen invasion.
