POMAIS Pesticide Aluminum Phosphide 56%TB 57%TB
Short Description:
Aluminum phosphide tablets at 56 % TB (and 57 % TB variant) represent a widely-used, high-efficacy fumigant for grain/seed storage, sealed containers, rodent burrows and other enclosed spaces. They release phosphine gas upon reaction with moisture to eliminate storage pests and rodents. This specification is offered by us with full OEM support (custom labelling, multi-language, small/bulk packaging).
Active Ingredient: Aluminum Phosphide 56%TB (57%TB)
CAS No.: 20859-73-8
Classification: Fumigant insecticide
Application: Aluminum phosphide is a highly toxic compound that is commonly used as a fumigant pesticide. It is often used in grain storage facilities and other agricultural settings to control pests and protect stored crops.
Packaging: 900g/bottle
MOQ: 500 bottles
Introduction
Aluminum Phosphide is a highly toxic inorganic compound with the chemical formula AlP, which can be used as a wide energy gap semiconductor and fumigant. This colorless solid usually appears as gray-green or gray-yellow powder on the market because of impurities produced by hydrolysis and oxidation.

Mode of Action
Aluminum phosphide is usually used as a broad-spectrum fumigation pesticide, mainly used to fumigate and kill storage pests of goods, various pests in spaces, grain storage pests, seed grain storage pests, outdoor rodents in caves, etc. . After aluminum phosphide absorbs water, it will immediately produce highly toxic phosphine gas, which enters the body through the respiratory system of insects (or mice and other animals) and acts on the respiratory chain and cytochrome oxidase of cell mitochondria, inhibiting their normal respiration and causing death. . In the absence of oxygen, phosphine is not easily inhaled by insects and does not show toxicity. In the presence of oxygen, phosphine can be inhaled and kill insects. Insects exposed to high concentrations of phosphine will suffer from paralysis or protective coma and reduced respiration. Preparation products can fumigate raw grains, finished grains, oil crops, dried potatoes, etc. When fumigating seeds, their moisture requirements vary with different crops.
Application scope
In sealed warehouses or containers, all kinds of stored grain pests can be directly eliminated, and mice in the warehouse can be killed. Even if pests appear in the granary, they can also be killed well. Phosphine can also be used to treat mites, lice, leather clothing, and down moths on items in homes and stores, or to avoid pest damage. Used in sealed greenhouses, glass houses, and plastic greenhouses, it can directly kill all underground and above-ground pests and mice, and can penetrate into plants to kill boring pests and root nematodes. Sealed plastic bags with thick texture and greenhouses can be used to treat open flower bases and export potted flowers, killing nematodes underground and in the plants and various pests on the plants.
