Hydrogen Peroxide with Nano Silver Stabilizer functions as a broad spectrum multimedia biocide. The disinfecting properties of hydrogen peroxide is increased many folds with the addition of silver. Upon completion of disinfection, it breaks down into water and oxygen and no other toxic residues, making it widely accepted. Due to its potent antiviral, antifungal, and antibacterial capacities, silver hydrogen peroxide marketed under the trade name of Alstasan Silvox is a potent micro-biocide much stronger than hydrogen peroxide alone.

Potent oxidizer Hydrogen Peroxide stabilized with the addition of silver, where the silver functions as both stabilizer and activator for the hydrogen peroxide. This combination of hydrogen peroxide with silver is so effective that it is nearly twenty times more potent than hydrogen peroxide alone.

Hydrogen peroxide with Nano silver stabilizer, or Silver Hydrogen Peroxide is safe to use, being both eco-friendly and nontoxic for humans and the environment.

The main highlights of this biodegradable disinfectant are:

• Eco-friendly: Colourless, odourless, and biodegradable in nature
• Multifunctional as it finds a wide range of industrial and domestic applications
• Multimedia sanitation (Air, Water, Soil, Surface)
• Nontoxic, breaking into water and oxygen and no other toxic residues
• Cold sterilant (Does not require any heat for disinfection)
• Stable over a wide pH and temperature range
• No Rinse product (Does not require rinsing with water)Silver Hydrogen Peroxide has a wide range of applications starting from drinking water sanitation, food and beverage industry disinfection, dairy farms, hospitals to agriculture and field sanitation.

LSTA® HYDROGEL is a potassium based cross linking hydrogel polymer that can potentially influence soil permeability, density, structure, texture, evaporation and infiltration rate of water through the soil. ALSTA® HYDROGEL particularly reduces the irrigation frequency and compaction tendency, it stop erosion and water runoff and increase the soil aeration and microbial activity.In arid areas, the use of ALSTA® HYDROGEL in the sandy soil (macro-porous medium) increases the water-holding capacity, and significantly improves the quality of plants. It slowly releases this absorbed water to the plants when needed. ALSTA® HYDROGEL particles may be taken as “mini-water reservoirs” in soil. Water will be used from these reservoirs upon the root demand through osmotic pressure difference. ALSTA® HYDROGEL also acts as a controlled release system by favoring the uptake of some nutrient elements, holding them tightly, and delaying their dissolution. Consequently, the plant can still access some of the fertilizers, resulting in improved growth and performance rates. ALSTA® HYDROGEL can also be used as retaining material in the form of a seed additive (to aid in germination and seedling establishment), seed coating, root dips, and for immobilizing plant growth regulator or protecting agents for controlled release.

Application

• Bare root Dipping: To prevent the dessication of the roots of seedlings during transplanting or transportation, 1kg of ALSTA® HYDROGEL is mixed in 150-200 liters of water with/without an additional fungicide/bactericide, and allowing it to stand for 15 minutes.
• Arboriculture: ALSTA® HYDROGEL reduces mortality rate due to transplantation shocks and enhances root development. A hole is dug about three times the volume of the root, at the plantation site, and 1-2kgs of ALSTA® HYDROGEL per m3 of soil is mixed. After hydration, the products stabilizes the plant.
• Common Plants and trees such as vegetable plantation, corn, sugarcane, etc: 5-3.0kgs of ALSTA® HYDROGEL per acre along with the above arboriculture practice improves and promotes seedling growth.
• Young Plants: 10-20gms of ALSTA® HYDROGEL per tree is mixed with the soil matrix per tree.
• Fully grown trees such as mango, teak, etc: 40 -100gms of ALSTA® HYDROGEL per tree is mixed with the soil matrix.
• Hydroponics: ALSTA® HYDROGEL reduces the water stress when mixed with substrate is mixed. For less permeable once like peat or composts, 1-2kgs of ALSTA® HYDROGEL per m3 of the substrate is mixed.

Benefits

• Increases water holding capacity of the soil thereby reducing irrigation frequency.
• Its limits water and nutrient loss through soil leaching.
• Reduces evaporation.
• Improves the physical properties of soil by enhancing aeration.
• Enhances plant growth by providing water and nutrients to the root zone of the plants
• Reduces compaction tendency
• Reduces erosion and water runoff
• Enhances plant performance specially in arid areas
• Helps in the long term protection of environment against drought and groundwater contamination
• Prevents dehydration of the seedlings
• Reduces transplanting shock thereby reduce mortality rate of plants
• Mixed with cellulose mulch, it helps in stabilizing newly graded soils
• which are able to maintain a minimum amount of surface water
• Used in large scale farming where it increases soil aeration enhancing germination and development of roots
• When mixed with fertilizers, it can stably provide fertile nutrients to the
• roots for a longer period
• Absorbs water, fertilizer, fungicide and release them slowly to the plants upon need
