Compound Amino Acid Powder 80%
Water-Soluble Humic Complexing Material for Micronutrient & Fertilizer Formulations
Chelating Agent for Modern Fertilizer Formulations
Compound Amino Acid Powder 80% is a high-concentration, plant-based amino acid ingredient designed for fertilizer manufacturing, micronutrient complexation, and specialty crop nutrition formulations.
Containing ≥80% total amino acids, the product provides a broad amino acid profile rather than relying on a single amino acid such as glycine. Its amino acid functional groups can interact with mineral ions such as zinc, iron, manganese, copper, calcium, and magnesium, making it suitable as an organic complexing material for the development of amino acid-based micronutrient products.
With excellent water solubility and a naturally acidic pH range, Compound Amino Acid Powder 80% can also be incorporated into liquid fertilizers, foliar nutrition products, biostimulant formulations, water-soluble fertilizers, and customized specialty nutrient systems.
TerraNutrix supplies Compound Amino Acid Powder 80% as a B2B raw material for fertilizer manufacturers, micronutrient producers, formulators, and OEM/private-label partners.
Why Compound Amino Acids?
Unlike a single amino acid ingredient such as glycine, Compound Amino Acid Powder contains a broader mixture of amino acid components derived from plant-based raw materials.
These amino acids contain functional groups capable of interacting with metal ions.
A simplified formulation concept is:
Compound Amino Acids
Fe / Zn / Mn / Cu / Ca / Mg
↓
Amino Acid–Mineral Complexes
This makes Compound Amino Acid Powder an interesting raw material for manufacturers developing micronutrient products where both mineral nutrition and amino acid components are desired.
Key Benefits
High Total Amino Acid Content
With ≥80% total amino acids, the product provides a concentrated amino acid source suitable for specialty fertilizer manufacturing. This allows formulators to introduce a substantial amino acid component without adding excessive amounts of carrier material.
Plant-Based Source
Compound Amino Acid Powder 80% is produced from plant-derived raw materials. This makes it particularly suitable for manufacturers developing: Plant-based crop nutrition formulations; Amino acid fertilizers; Specialty micronutrient products; Biostimulant-compatible formulations; Premium foliar nutrition products
100% Water Soluble
The product is designed for complete water solubility, an important characteristic for manufacturers producing: Liquid fertilizers; Foliar fertilizers; Fertigation products; Water-soluble fertilizers; Soluble micronutrient blends. Actual compatibility should be evaluated within the complete formulation.

Compound amino acids and EDTA serve different formulation objectives. Compound amino acids are particularly relevant when an amino acid-rich, organic-ligand nutrient system is desired, while EDTA provides stronger and more clearly defined micronutrient chelation. The appropriate choice depends on the target micronutrient, formulation chemistry, application method and desired product positioning.
