MOP Potash (Muriate of Potash) 0-0-60

MOP 60% K₂O | Granular (SGN 200–300) & Standard for oil palm & broadacre

CBIL supplies muriate of potash (potassium chloride, KCl) from Canada (Canpotex via Vancouver and Saint John deepwater terminals), Jordan (Arab Potash Company / APC directly loading from the Port of Aqaba on the Red Sea), Germany (K+S Minerals via Hamburg and Antwerp), and Chile (salars). These origins serve large-scale agricultural buyers across Southeast Asia, India, Latin America, and Africa. Cargoes move in Supramax and Panamax bulk vessels (30,000–65,000 MT), heavy-duty 50 kg woven polypropylene (PP) bags with polyethylene inner liners, and 1 MT UV-stabilised jumbo bags, with SGS/Intertek inspection at load port.

MOP is contracted at 60.0% K₂O minimum (equivalent to 95.0–98.0% KCl), moisture strictly capped at ≤ 0.5%, and sodium chloride (NaCl) ≤ 2.0%. Two specialized physical forms serve distinct agricultural and manufacturing markets. Granular MOP 0-0-60 is screened to 2.0–4.0 mm (≥ 90–95%) with a Size Guide Number (SGN) of 200–300, Uniformity Index UI ≥ 50, and crushing strength of 3.0–4.5 kgf (30–45 N). Granules are conditioned with dedicated fatty amine and oil anti-caking agents to prevent hygroscopic agglomeration into hard slabs during extended tropical sea voyages. Standard MOP 0-0-60 (0.2–1.0 mm) provides high specific surface area for compound NPK chemical granulation plants and direct broadcasting. Agronomically, granular MOP is irreplaceable in Southeast Asian oil palm estates: mature palms remove massive quantities of potassium (3.0–5.0 kg of MOP per palm annually), where adequate K nutrition drives bunch formation, oil synthesis, bunch weight, and drought resistance. It is equally indispensable for sugarcane ratoon stalk elongation, broadacre cereal grain filling in the Indian Rabi season, and dry bulk blending with granular urea, DAP, and ammonium sulphate.
