The effects of granulated KCl fertilizer hydrophobization on granule water absorption and KCl solubility were studied with the aim to find treatments improving the granule transport and storage stability and resistance to caking. The granules were treated with C12-C16 aliphatic amines in free or salt (acetate, chloride) forms, with free fatty acids (C4, C5, C6, C7, oleic, linoleic, linolenic), with fatty acid tech. mixtures, petroleum hydrocarbons, and their combinations. Free amines and their acetate salts were more effective in hydrophobization than chloride salts; the effects also increased with the amine chain length. The fatty acids were inferior to amines in the hydrophobization effects. Combined treatments with fatty amines, fatty acids, and non-polar hydrocarbons were very effective in waterproofing the KCl granules, providing up to 60% hydrophobization and 96-97% dynamic strength.
