Ferbam is an organometallic dithiocarbamate fungicide, widely used in agriculture to protect crops like fruits, vegetables, and nuts from fungal diseases such as late blight, rust, and mildew. It is also employed as a wood preservative and in some industrial applications for its broad-spectrum efficacy. This chemical has a CAS number of 14484-64-1, a molecular formula of C9H18FeN3S6, and a molecular weight of 416.49 g/mol. It is stored at ambient conditions but requires careful handling due to its classification as a dangerous substance with appropriate safety measures. Molekula supplies Ferbam from research to bulk quantities with full documentation and ISO 9001:2015 traceability.
