Potassium Sulfate-High Purity Agricultural Raw Material
AOLANSU Potassium Sulfate Powder (SOP) is an agricultural fertilizer with a K₂O content of ≥ 52% and a particle size of 0.1–0.3 mm. It supplies potassium and sulfur for crop nutrition and fertilizer formulations. Available in 50 kg and 1,000 kg packaging, with loading ports in Qingdao and Dalian, China, it serves fertilizer manufacturers, distributors, and international bulk buyers.
Potassium Sulfate Powder, also known as Sulfate of Potash (SOP), is a potassium-based agricultural fertilizer with the chemical formula K₂SO₄ and CAS No. 7778-80-5. It supplies potassium and sulfur, two essential nutrients for plant growth, and is widely used in agricultural fertilizer formulations and crop nutrient management.
AOLANSU Potassium Sulfate Powder features a K₂O content of at least 52% and a particle size of 0.1–0.3 mm. Its fine powder form makes it suitable for fertilizer processing and applications that require a finely sized potassium sulfate material. Compared with potassium chloride, potassium sulfate is generally a lower-chloride source of potassium, making it a preferred option for many chloride-sensitive crops when the product's actual chloride specification meets their requirements.
AOLANSU supplies potassium sulfate powder for fertilizer manufacturers, agricultural input distributors, wholesalers, and international importers. Available packaging options include 50 kg and 1,000 kg, providing flexibility for different purchasing volumes. The ports of loading are Qingdao and Dalian, China, subject to order and shipping arrangements.

Key Features of Potassium Sulfate Powder
1. High Potassium Content
Potassium sulfate powder with a K₂O content of at least 52% provides a concentrated potassium source for agricultural fertilizer formulations. Potassium plays an important role in regulating plant water balance, activating enzymes, transporting sugars, and supporting normal crop development. Adequate potassium nutrition helps plants maintain physiological functions throughout their growth cycle.
For fertilizer manufacturers and agricultural suppliers, high-potassium raw materials can help meet formulation requirements for crops with specific potassium needs. The appropriate application rate should be determined according to soil conditions, crop type, growth stage, and the overall fertilizer program.
2. Supplies Both Potassium and Sulfur
Potassium sulfate contains potassium and sulfur, two nutrients that contribute to normal plant growth. Potassium supports water regulation, nutrient transport, and enzyme activity, while sulfur is involved in amino acid formation and protein synthesis.
Using potassium sulfate in an agricultural nutrient program can help supply both elements when the crop and soil require them. This makes SOP fertilizer a useful option for fertilizer formulations designed to provide balanced crop nutrition.
3. A Potassium Source for Chloride-Sensitive Crops
One of the main reasons growers choose sulfate of potash is its generally lower chloride content compared with potassium chloride fertilizer. Potassium sulfate may be suitable for chloride-sensitive crops such as tobacco, potatoes, grapes, citrus fruits, and certain vegetables.
The actual suitability of a fertilizer depends on its chloride specification, crop sensitivity, soil conditions, and application rate. Buyers should verify the chloride content of the selected product before using it in applications where chloride levels are critical.
4. Fine Particle Size for Fertilizer Processing
AOLANSU Potassium Sulfate Powder has a specified particle size of 0.1–0.3 mm. This fine powder form can be considered for fertilizer manufacturing and processing applications that require finely sized raw materials.
Particle size can affect material handling, mixing behavior, and the uniformity of fertilizer formulations. Buyers should evaluate the product's physical characteristics and compatibility with their processing equipment before incorporating it into a production line.
5. Flexible Packaging for Bulk Purchasing
AOLANSU offers potassium sulfate powder in 50 kg and 1,000 kg packaging options. These packaging sizes can accommodate different purchasing volumes, warehousing arrangements, and transportation requirements.
For agricultural fertilizer distributors, wholesalers, and importers, confirming the packaging format and order quantity in advance helps simplify procurement and shipment planning. Buyers can contact AOLANSU to discuss availability, packaging details, and export arrangements.
Applications of Potassium Sulfate Powder
1. Agricultural Fertilizer Manufacturing
Potassium sulfate powder can be used as a potassium and sulfur source in agricultural fertilizer production. Depending on formulation requirements, it may be incorporated into suitable fertilizer blends to help meet the nutrient demands of different crops.
Fertilizer manufacturers should consider the product's K₂O content, particle size, and compatibility with other ingredients when designing formulations. The final blend should meet the relevant quality requirements and intended application specifications.
2. Fruit and Orchard Cultivation
Fruit crops require adequate potassium throughout their development. Potassium contributes to water regulation, sugar transport, and normal fruit growth. Potassium sulfate can be included in nutrient management programs for grapes, citrus fruits, apples, and other fruit crops when soil or plant analysis indicates a need for potassium and sulfur.
Application decisions should take into account crop type, growth stage, soil fertility, irrigation practices, and local agronomic recommendations.
3. Vegetable Production
Vegetables such as tomatoes, peppers, and potatoes require balanced nutrient supplies for healthy growth and marketable yields. Potassium sulfate can provide potassium and sulfur in suitable fertilizer programs, especially where the use of a lower-chloride potassium source is preferred.
The application method and rate should be selected according to the crop's nutritional requirements and the characteristics of the soil or growing medium.
4. Tobacco and Other Chloride-Sensitive Crops
Some crops are sensitive to excessive chloride in the root zone. For these crops, potassium sulfate may be selected as an alternative potassium source to potassium chloride, provided the actual product specification is appropriate.
Growers and fertilizer suppliers should check the product's chloride content and follow crop-specific recommendations to maintain suitable nutrient conditions.
5. Fertilizer Blending and Raw Material Supply
With its specified fine particle size, potassium sulfate powder can be evaluated as a raw material for fertilizer blending and related processing applications. Its suitability depends on the formulation, mixing equipment, storage conditions, and requirements for the finished fertilizer.
For bulk buyers, confirming technical specifications before production helps reduce the risk of incompatibility and supports more consistent manufacturing.
Product Quality and Specification Control
1. Potassium Content Verification
K₂O content is an important specification for evaluating potassium sulfate fertilizer. AOLANSU's stated product specification is K₂O ≥ 52%. Buyers should refer to the relevant technical documentation and batch Certificate of Analysis (COA), where available, to verify the actual composition of the supplied product.
2. Particle Size Inspection
The specified particle size is 0.1–0.3 mm. Particle size is an important consideration for buyers who use fine raw materials in fertilizer blending or manufacturing. Confirming the particle-size specification helps buyers evaluate whether the product matches their processing requirements.
3. Technical Documentation
Before placing an order, buyers should confirm the product specifications, packaging, order quantity, and applicable documentation. A Technical Data Sheet (TDS) and Certificate of Analysis (COA), where available, can help verify the product's technical properties and batch-specific quality indicators.
Other parameters, such as sulfur content, chloride content, moisture, and water-insoluble matter, should be confirmed from the supplier's official technical documentation rather than assumed from general reference values.
Packaging, Storage, and Shipping
AOLANSU Potassium Sulfate Powder is available in 50 kg and 1,000 kg packaging options. The final packaging arrangement should be confirmed when placing an order to ensure that it meets the buyer's handling, storage, and transportation requirements.
