ZEOLITE BASED ON MICRONIZED CHABASITE AND PHILLIPSITE, LESS THAN 20 microns (10 Kg).

AMENDANT AND ENHANCER OF THE NATURAL DEFENSES OF VEGETABLES

Dried and sterilized in the oven at 200°C for 20 minutes.

The product adheres perfectly to surfaces; its cubic crystalline microstructure makes the surfaces particularly rough making them unusable for insects and fungal attacks. Drying increases its hygroscopic capacity and facilitates the healing of fruit and vegetables. He has no shortage time. It has a high cation exchange capacity. It protects the leaves from heat stress and cold stress, reducing the temperature range.

Group of minerals consisting of 52 mineralogical species chemically defined as "hydrated aluminosilicates of alkaline and/or alkaline-earth elements" (essentially, Na, K and Ca) and structurally constituting the tectosilicate family with feldspars, feldspathoids and silica minerals. In this family of silicates, the primary structural units, tetrahedrons [(Si,Al)O4], are linked together in the three directions of space to form three-dimensional scaffolds resulting in a tetrahedral cation (Si, Al) to oxygen ratio of 1: 2.

Unlike what occurs in other families of silicates where the same structural units are isolated (nesosilicates, e.g. olivine), connected in a single direction (inosilicates, e.g. pyroxenes) or in two directions (phyllosilcates, e.g. clay minerals ), the three-dimensional tetrahedral scaffolding of tectosilicates gives rise to "open" structures due to the presence of extra-tretrahedral cavities of increasing volume from feldspars and silica minerals to feldspathoids and zeolites.

The three-dimensional tetrahedral scaffold of zeolites is "very open" (low tetrahedral density) and, as such, has large internal cavities (from 20 to 50% of the crystal volume) communicating with each other and with the outside through molecular-sized channels (2.5 to about 7 Å; 1 Å = 10-8 cm).

In their natural state, cavities and channels are occupied by cations (Na, K, Ca) and water molecules. The cations, necessary to balance the negative electric charges of the tetrahedral scaffold due to the partial replacement of Si4+ with Al3+, being weakly bound to the tetrahedral scaffold, enjoy a certain freedom of movement and can exit, through the channels, from the cavities and therefore from the crystal only if replaced by other cations carrying the same number of positive electric charges.

This property, known as "cation exchange capacity" (CSC), has an intensity (expressed in meq/g) that increases with the increase of the Al content in the tetrahedra and varies from about 2 meq/g in Al-poor zeolites (clinoptilolite , ferrierite mordenite) at 3-4 meq/g in Al-rich zeolites (chabasite, phillipsite).

The water, from 10 to 20% by weight depending on the zeolite species, can be easily and more or less continuously removed by heating below 300-350°C with no or modest modifications of the tetrahedral scaffolding.

The zeolites thus dehydrated have a large internal surface (up to a few hundred m2 per gram of substance) available to still host water molecules or other molecules with natural or induced polarity. The dehydration-rehydration process is almost infinitely reversible and the absorption of polar molecules takes place according to a strict "selection" based "firstly" on the size of the molecules and, secondly, on their degree of polarity.

The material is sterilized in the oven up to a temperature of 200°C for 20 minutes, the finer and dustier part has a high sterilizing power against fungal pathologies (molds and fungi).
