Product Application of Aluminum Phosphide CAS#20859-73-8

This item is an extremely toxic broad‑spectrum fumigant insecticide. It appears as gray or gray‑green tablets and ignites easily upon contact with water. It is primarily employed for fumigating diverse storage pests and space‑borne pests, and can also be applied for rodent control. Upon moisture absorption, aluminum phosphide releases highly toxic phosphine gas. This gas penetrates insect bodies via the respiratory system, targets the respiratory chain and cytochrome oxidase in cell mitochondria, suppresses regular insect respiration, and leads to mortality.
Our company manufactures aluminum phosphide items in technical, powder, tablet, and pill forms. Available packaging includes export‑grade aluminum bottles, aluminum tubes, tinplate cans, aluminum foil bags, and plastic tube packages.
