Water-insoluble triazone fertilizer and method of making and use.

摘要

In a preferred embodiment, a high-yield method producing novel water insoluble triazone compositions with a typical analysis prior to separation of the insoluble crystals, percentages based on total weight of reaction produced, includes insoluble triazone at about 75 percent, produced by admixing urea with formaldehyde while adjusting and maintaining pH at about pH 9, and while maintaining well mixed, heating for about one hour at about 85 DEG C in water solvent, followed by adding ammonia while maintaining temperature below about 65 DEG and pH at about pH 9 for about an hour, followed by cooling to about 30 DEG C, filtering-off insoluble triazone crystals, washing the crystals and drying the crystals. Novel fertilizer-type insoluble triazones typically include methyl triazone and hydroxyethyl triazone and hydroxyethyl thiotriazone, applicable to land or crops alone or in combination with other fertilizers.
