Sodium Humate Flakes for Feed Applications
Sodium Humate Flakes, a natural product derived from lignite or leonardite, is a versatile additive with significant benefits in animal nutrition and health. As a natural chelator and bio-stimulant, Sodium Humate Flakes are increasingly used in livestock feeds to enhance performance, improve digestion, and promote overall well-being.
What is Sodium Humate?
Sodium humate is referred to as "humate de sodium." While the name might differ, its exceptional properties and applications remain consistent, catering to a wide range of industries. Sodium Humate Flake is made from natural high grade Leonardite with diffrent grade of solubility, appearing in black powder, granule, flake and ball, it has been widely used in animal feed additive, aquaculture, oil drilling, industry as well as agriculture.
Sodium humate extraction process involves the treatment of lignite or leonardite, a form of soft brown coal, with sodium hydroxide. Once extracted, it presents itself as a shiny, dark-colored substance. The powdered form, sodium humate powder, is particularly popular in agriculture because of its ease of use and integration into existing soil mixtures.
Product Specification
Application of Sodium Humate Flakes
- Feed Additive - Sodium humate flakes, when used as a feed additive, forms a shielding film on intestinal mucosa cells. This shield significantly reduces the intake of toxic substances, which could arise from infections or residues from animal feed. It's also adept at absorbing toxins from proteins, harmful substances, and a range of heavy metals, thereby stabilizing intestinal flora and promoting growth and immune system enhancement.
- Aquaculture Utility- Sodium humate flakes enriches the water with carbon, purifies it by chelating calcium and magnesium ions, and inhibits the buildup of fouling. It alters the water's color to prevent the formation of moss and green algae, facilitates aquatic plant growth, chelates heavy metal ions, and improves substrate conditions by mitigating environmental pollution.
- Industrial Uses- Sodium humate flakes is instrumental in removing toxic metals and ions from wastewater. It's used in dissolved air flotation cells, aiding in the elimination of trace amounts of grease, oil, liquid organics, and suspended matter. It also acts as an extraordinary coagulant, used alongside water-soluble polymeric flocculants to remove soluble organics, and can prevent fluid loss in specific organic liquids.
Agricultural Applications of Sodium Humate Flakes
- Soil Conditioning and Improvement: Sodium humate flakes enhances soil structure, improving its ability to retain water and nutrients. This results in healthier plants and increased agricultural productivity.
- Plant Growth Stimulant: By stimulating root development and nutrient absorption, sodium humate fosters robust plant growth, especially in challenging soil conditions.
- Disease Resistance in Plants: Plants treated with sodium humate exhibit improved resistance to diseases, safeguarding crops and ensuring a bountiful harvest.
Potassium Humate Flakes – Typical Specifications
Physical & Chemical Properties
- Appearance: Black shiny flakes (solid)
- Form / Size: ~2–4 mm flakes (sometimes 1–2 mm depending on grade)
- Water Solubility: ~97–100 % water-soluble (excellent for foliar spray or soil application)
- pH (1 % solution): ~9.0–11.0 (alkaline)
Key Nutrient Content (Dry Basis)
- Humic Acid: ≥ 65–70 % (primary active component)
- Fulvic Acid: ~10–15 % (enhances nutrient transport and bioavailability)
- Potassium (as K₂O): ≥ 10 % (essential plant nutrient)
Other Typical Parameters
- Moisture: ≤ 15 % (low moisture for storage stability)
- Bulk Density: ~0.40–0.60 g/cm³ (varies by manufacturer)
Minor Elements / Heavy Metals: Very low ppm levels when tested per technical data standards (e.g., Pb, Cd, Hg traces)
What These Specs Mean
- Humic Acid Content – This is the core active ingredient; higher percentages mean better soil conditioning and nutrient chelation.
- Fulvic Acid – Improves nutrient transport and helps plants absorb minerals more efficiently.
- Potassium (K₂O) – Adds a form of potassium that plants can use to support metabolism and stress tolerance.
- Water Solubility – High solubility ensures the flakes dissolve easily in water for foliar spray or irrigation.
Typical Uses Based on Specs
- Soil conditioning (improves soil structure & CEC)
- Foliar sprays (nutrient delivery & stress support)
- Seed treatments & root development
- Irrigation blends with fertilizers such as NPK mixes
Available Forms (Examples)
