Fe EDDHMA

The Dissolvine® M line contains microgranular iron chelates and is developed for the correction and prevention of iron deficiency in a wide range of agricultural and horticultural crops, particularly in alkaline and calcareous soils.

Dissolvine® M products give the best effect when applied dissolved to the plants through the soil or rooting media. The number in the product name reflects the so-called 'ortho-ortho' level which is a measurement for quality and a label requirement in the European Union. Scientific research has proven that the ortho-ortho isomer is the only isomer which performs in soils, in particular calcareous soils. AkzoNobel uses the official CEN methods to express the ortho-ortho (and if applicable also the ortho-para) levels on their product labels.

The Dissolvine® M line contains 65 gramsof chelated iron per kg of product. EDDHMA is an abbreviation of ethylenediamine-N,N'-bis (2-hydroxy-4methylphenylacetic acid). This 'bis-2' reflects the ortho-ortho isomer. The table below shows the available products. AkzoNobel has the widest range of Fe EDDHA and FE EDDHMA products in the world.
