Inorganic micronutrient fertilizers - Determination of the concentration of free, chelated or complexed micronutrients and the chelating and/or complexing agents present in compound inorganic micronutrient fertilizers
This document specifies the method for the determination of free, chelated or complexed micronutrients and chelating and/or complexing agents present in compound inorganic micronutrient fertilizers.
This method applies to compound inorganic micronutrient fertilizers when micronutrients are chelated and/or complexed.
The method is based on the determination of the following specific parameters :
- the water-soluble micronutrient concentration;
- the fraction of chelated micronutrients in relation;
- identification of chelating agents EDTA, DTPA, HEEDTA, IDHA, [S,S]–EDDS, [o,o] EDDHA, [o,o] EDDHMA, [o,p] EDDHA, HBED and EDDHSA;
- the fraction of complexed micronutrients;
- identification of complexing agents (lignosulfonates, heptagluconic acid (HGA)).
The method is based on
- ICP (inductive coupled plasma) or FAAS (flame atomic absorption spectrometry) measurement of the concentration of water-soluble micronutrients according to EN 16963 or EN 16965 after extraction according to EN 16962;
- LC (liquid chromatography) measurement of the chelating agents according to EN 15950, EN 13368-1, EN 13368-2, EN 13368-3, EN 15451, EN 15452;
and/or complexing agents according to EN 16109 and EN 16847;
- determination of the concentration of chelated micronutrients by CEN/TS 17786-1 and/or CEN/TS 17786-2;
- determination of the complexed micronutrients by EN 15962.
To avoid duplication of the analytical methods, CEN/TS 17786-2 describes the determination of micronutrients and the identification and determination of chelating agents.

Introduction
Micronutrients are considered to be, in plant nutrition, a number of elements known to be needed in
small amounts for proper plant growth and development. The most common are Iron (Fe), Manganese
(Mn), Molybdenum (Mo), Copper (Cu), Zinc (Zn) and Boron (B).
If an inorganic micronutrient fertilizer contains a substance, or one of the substances in the mixture,
which is intended to enhance the long-term availability to plants of micronutrients in the EU fertilizing
products, that substance is either a chelating agent or a complexing agent.
In this document the test method is defined to be used in order to determine free, chelated or
complexed micronutrients and chelating and/or complexing agents present in compound inorganic
micronutrient fertilizers (classified as product function category (PFC) 1(C)(II)(b) according to
Regulation (EU) 2019/1009 [7]).
This method allows the determination of the content of Co, Cu, Fe, Mn, Zn as free and/or chelated
and/or complexed micronutrients.
1 Scope
This document specifies the method for the determination of free, chelated or complexed
micronutrients and chelating and/or complexing agents present in compound inorganic micronutrient
fertilizers.
This method applies to compound inorganic micronutrient fertilizers when micronutrients are
chelated and/or complexed.
The method is based on the determination of the following specific parameters :
— the water-soluble micronutrient concentration;
— the fraction of chelated micronutrients in relation;
— identification of chelating agents EDTA, DTPA, HEEDTA, IDHA, [S,S]–EDDS, [o,o] EDDHA,
[o,o] EDDHMA, [o,p] EDDHA, HBED and EDDHSA;
— the fraction of complexed micronutrients;
— identification of complexing agents (lignosulfonates, heptagluconic acid (HGA)).
The method is based on
— ICP (inductive coupled plasma) or FAAS (flame atomic absorption spectrometry) measurement of
the concentration of water-soluble micronutrients according to EN 16963 or EN 16965 after
extraction according to EN 16962;
— LC (liquid chromatography) measurement of the chelating agents according to EN 15950,
EN 13368-1, EN 13368-2, EN 13368-3, EN 15451, EN 15452;
and/or complexing agents according to EN 16109 and EN 16847;
— determination of the concentration of chelated micronutrients by CEN/TS 17786-1 and/or
CEN/TS 17786-2;
— determination of the complexed micronutrients by EN 15962.
To avoid duplication of the analytical methods, CEN/TS 17786-2 describes the determination of
micronutrients and the identification and determination of chelating agents.
