Application and benefits

Anhybor is a versatile product that satisfies your need for high quality boron in the following applications:
  • Fertilizer coating: Anhybor Fine is designed to be used as a coating formulation for granular and compacted fertilizers giving flexibility on the micronutrient rate and assuring an even distribution in the field. U.S. Borax recommends the use of a binder material during the coating process.
  • Compound fertilizer: In certain countries, Anhybor can be used as a raw material (intermediate ingredient) to produce enriched/fortified compound fertilizers
  • Direct soil application: Depending upon the country and cropping system, Anhybor can be soil applied via fertilizer mixture where it is present as an intermediate ingredient
Anhybor contains no added impurities, fillers, or additional ingredients. In addition, you will find that Anhybor has a reduced risk of segregation.
FACT
Anhybor contains no structural water.
