What is Potash? Why it is gaining popularity as a fertilizers around the globe?

Image
  Potash is a natural mineral found in a variety of soils across the globe. It is a sedimentary rock that is formed by the earth's crust and is found in such varied forms as soda clays, clay, coal, and drainage-rich clay. In its simplest form, it can be found as fine powdery white powdery material and in this form is known as Potash-A. The material that it is made out of is basically quite soluble, which is why it is commonly used for agricultural and landscape fertilizer. It is the main ingredient in fertilizers like Blood-Lily Blend (also known as Potashite), which is a highly soluble form of Potash mineral. Most of the fertilizers on the market today contain Potash as an ingredient. It is usually mixed with water and later on injected into the ground to release the nutrients it has absorbed.   It has been found that the higher the Potash content in the soil, the more Potash-A it will have in it, and hence the better plants will grow. With time, the process of Potash-A ...

Copper clad wire (CCS) is an abbreviation for copper clad steel wire, which incorporates both the physical property of steel (i.e., high tensile strength) and the electrical property of copper (i.e., its high electrical conductivity). In short, copper clad steel wires are steel wires covered with copper. The core material used to make copper clad steel wire is generally low carbon steels and is typically employed as either the internal or grounding conductor of coaxial and multilayer cables. Copper clad steel wire can be electroplated or manufactured with silver, nickel, gold, solder, and tin. The applications of CCS includes specialty resistors and capacitors, motors and magnetic assemblies, and intelligent pressure and temperature measuring instrumentations. The electrical resistance to electrical current passing through the cable when exposed to the electric field depends on the thickness of the outer layer of copper used in the wire. This layer is called 'coating' and its ...
