<p>An encapsulated particle includes a core particle. The core particle includes a fertilizer selected from the group of nitrogen, phosphate, potash, and sulfur, and combinations thereof. The core particle may also include herbicides, insecticides, and fungicides. The encapsulated particle also includes a polyurethane layer disposed about the core particle. The polyurethane layer includes the reaction product of an aromatic isocy-anate component and a polyol that is reactive with the aromatic isocyanate component. The aromatic isocyanate component includes methylene diphenyl diisocyanate, toluene diisocyanate, and mixtures thereof. The polyol that is reactive with the aromatic isocy-anate component is derived from an aromatic amine-based initiator and includes a toluene diamine. The aromaticity of the aromatic isocyanate component and the polyol serves to insure complete miscibility between the aromatic isocyanate and the polyol thereby forming the polyurethane layer without defects preventing water from permeat-ing the polyurethane layer and dissolving the core particle.</p> |
