Abstract Seeking to obtain bulk (NPK – nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium), chlorine-free fertilizers, the influence of interaction between potassium chloride and ammonium dihydrogen phosphate in aqueous solutions at temperature of 20, 40, 60 and 80°C has been investigated. Components of the solid phase have been identified by methods of chemical and instrumental analysis: radiography (X – ray), infra – red molecular absorption spectroscopy (IR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). It has been observed that the largest amount of solid state potassium dihydrogen phosphate was obtained at 60–80°C, when the potassium chloride and ammonium dihydrogen phosphate molar ratio is equal 0.8:0.2. Changing the molar ratio of 0.5:0.5 to 0.8:0.2, and with increasing temperature, various shaped crystals have developed in the remaining aqueous solutions with a morphology shifting from sharp needles to tetragonal prism.

Concrete has been one of the most widely used materials in Engineering, which also induced the problems of vegetation destruction, soil erosion, and even deterioration for ecosystems. The ecological concrete was proposed to reinforce the slope due to its characteristics of high strength and large porosity to ensure the growth of plants. However the high alkalinity for ordinary portland cement constrained the growth of plants. An experimental test including 15 groups of samples was carried out to evaluate the effects of materials including polycarboxylate superplasticizer, calcium carbonate, ammonium bicarbonate, potassium dihydrogen phosphate, silica fume, ferrous sulfate and calcium lignosulfonate on pH value for ecological concrete. Under the condition that the compressive strength and porosity meet the requirement of ecological concrete, two sets of additives were proposed, which are suitable for the slope with high strength and the slope with low alkalinity requirements respectively.
