3-Indolebutyric acid Powder(High purity) is a white crystalline solid. It is insoluble in water, and its solubility in water at 20 ℃ is 0.25g/l. Soluble in benzene, soluble in other organic solvents. Its vapor and air can form an explosive mixture, which can cause combustion and explosion in case of an open fire and high heat. It can react with oxidants. Its vapor is heavier than air and can diffuse to a considerable distance at a lower place. It will catch fire and burn back in case of a fire source. In case of high heat, the internal pressure of the container increases, and there is a risk of cracking and explosion. It is a broad-spectrum indole plant growth regulator and a good rooting agent, which can promote the rooting of cuttings of herbaceous and woody ornamental plants. It is commonly used for root soaking and transplanting woody and herbaceous plants, which can accelerate the growth of roots and improve the percentage of plant rooting. It can also be used for seed soaking and seed dressing of plant seeds, which can improve the germination rate and survival rate.

Is indole butyric acid a plant hormone?
3-Indolebutyric acid Powder is a plant hormone and a natural indole plant growth regulator. In 1930, it was synthesized by Jackson and others and then developed by American MANCE company and United carbonization company. IBA can be absorbed by roots, stems, leaves, and fruits of plants, but it has small mobility, is not easy to be decomposed by indoleacetic acid oxidase, has a long biological activity duration, and its physiological function is similar to endogenous auxin. Indole-3-butyric acid is a good rooting agent, which can promote the rooting of cuttings of herbaceous and woody ornamental plants. It can also be used for the fruit setting of melons and fruits to improve the fruit setting rate. Sodium indole butyrate is the sodium salt of indole butyric acid. Because of its high purity, easy solubility in water, stable property, and easy conduction in the body, it is safer, more convenient, more efficient, and more effective than indole butyric acid.
What is a plant growth regulator? Why is IBA effective?
Plant growth regulators are synthetic organic compounds that are similar to plant hormones and can regulate plant physiological processes and control plant growth and reproduction. Indole butyric acid (IBA) and naphthyl acetic acid (NAA) are two commonly used plant growth regulators for cutting and rooting. Among them, indole butyric acid has the best effect because it operates less in plants and is easy to be retained near the required parts. At the same time, if you mix two kinds of production regulators with different effects, you can show efficiency or cooperation, and grow products that satisfy you. For example, indole butyric acid has a strong effect on promoting rooting, but the adventitious roots produced are thin and long, while the root promoting effect of naphthyl acetic acid (NAA) is that the roots are few and thick. Therefore, when the two are mixed, the products with thick and dense roots are often obtained.
How to prepare and use 3-indole butyric acid?
By indole and γ- Butyrolactone react at 280 ~ 290 ℃ under the action of potassium hydroxide to form a product. Whether the preparation has drift powder or wettable powder. The detailed process is as follows: indole γ- Butyrolactone and potassium hydroxide are added to tetrahydronaphthalene, heated and dissolved under stirring, refluxed and dehydrated, heated to 200 ℃, dehydrated to four parts of the theoretical amount, began to dissolve, dehydrated to the theoretical amount within 1 to 1.5 hours, raised to 300 ℃ and maintained for 0.5 hours. After cooling slightly, toluene and hot water are added to dissolve, and the solution is separated while hot. After the water layer is cooled, it is neutralized with hydrochloric acid to obtain the crude product, and then recrystallized with benzene to obtain 3-INDOLEBUTYRIC ACID 133-32-4.
3-indole butyric acid powder is an endogenous auxin, which can promote cell division and cell growth, induce the formation of adventitious roots, increase fruit set, prevent fruit falling, and change the ratio of female and male flowers. It can enter the plant through the tender epidermis and seeds of leaves and branches, and be transported to the active part with the nutrient flow. The detailed use methods are as follows: in order to make this product more effective in promoting the growth of plant taproot, improving germination rate and survival rate. It is often used for root soaking and transplanting of woody and herbaceous plants, and hard branches and rods can accelerate the growth of roots and improve the percentage of plant rooting. It can also be used for seed soaking and seed dressing of plant seeds, which can improve the germination rate and survival rate. During root soaking transplantation, the concentration of herbal plants is 10 ~ 20mg / L and woody plants is 50mg / L; The impregnation concentration during rod insertion is 50 ~ 100mg / L; The concentration of seed soaking and seed dressing is 100mg / L (woody plants) and 10 ~ 20mg / L (herbs).

FAQ:
Q1:Can Indole-3-butyric acid be used for preserving fruits and vegetables?
No, its main function is rooting, while anti-ripening preservation uses other plant regulators.
Q2:What is the difference between IBA and NAA?
IBA focuses on inducing robust fibrous roots; NAA mainly promotes thick main roots and prevents fruit drop.
Q3:Is Indole-3-butyric acid toxic to humans and crops?
Low toxicity to humans, easily degraded in soil; only over-concentration will inhibit plant growth.
