Value that comes from an @input field is not being displayed

I'm trying to create a dynamic reactive form, but the value is not being displayed

<div *ngFor="let deliveryAcross of (deliveriesAcross | async)!; let i = index;">
  <app-delivery-across
    [index]="i"
    [deliveryAcross]="deliveryAcross"
  ></app-delivery-across>
  {{ deliveryAcross | json }}
</div>

deliveryacross.component.ts

  @Input("deliveryAcross") deliveryAcross: IDeliverAcross;

  minFormControl: FormControl;
  errorStateMatcher: NextErrorStateMatcher;
  constructor(private change: ChangeDetectorRef, private store: Store) {
    this.deliveryAcross = {
      iso: "",
      min: 1,
      max: 2,
      shippingCents: 0,
      shippingEuros: 0,
    };

    this.minFormControl = new FormControl("", [
      Validators.required,
      Validators.min(1),
    ]);
    this.errorStateMatcher = new NextErrorStateMatcher();
  }

I can't use ngModel because it would cause readonly errors that's why I choose to use value instead, but my value is not being displayed rather the input refreshes back to empty

<mat-form-field
  class="full-width"
  [@transformRightLeftStateTrigger]="stateDown | async"
>
  <input
    matInput
    [formControl]="minFormControl"
    [errorStateMatcher]="errorStateMatcher"
    placeholder="Minimaal"
    appDeliveryAcross
    [value]="deliveryAcross.min"
    autocomplete="off"
    [key]="'min'"
    [component]="'delivery-across'"
    type="number"
  />
</mat-form-field>

Why the value that comes from deliveryAcross.min is not displayed in input?

That happens because you're using value side by side with formControl as a source of value for the input, so the initial value of formControl overrides the value one.

You can try to use one source such as formControl, then use ngOnChanges to get the changes of this.deliveryAcross input, so you can write it again to the formControl.

Try the following:

ngOnInit() {
  // Move this part to the `ngOnInit` so you can read the value of `this.deliveryAcross` input,
  // and set it as initial value of the form-control.
  this.minFormControl = new FormControl(this.deliveryAcross?.min, [
    Validators.required,
    Validators.min(1)
  ]);
}

// implement `OnChanges` interface to get the input changes.
ngOnChanges(changes: SimpleChanges) {
  if(changes.deliveryAcross) {
    this.minFormControl.setValue(this.deliveryAcross?.min);
  }
}

<mat-form-field
  class="full-width"
  [@transformRightLeftStateTrigger]="stateDown | async"
>
  <input
    matInput
    [formControl]="minFormControl"
    [errorStateMatcher]="errorStateMatcher"
    placeholder="Minimaal"
    appDeliveryAcross
    autocomplete="off"
    [key]="'min'"
    [component]="'delivery-across'"
    type="number"
  />
</mat-form-field>
