Abstract

A dry flowable additive for aqueous urea-based fertilizers made of solid urea formaldehyde polymer (UFP), N-(n-butyl) thiophosphoric triamide (NBPT), and, optionally, dicyandiamide (DCD), wherein the liquid fertilizer containing the additive provides reduced nitrogen loss from the soil. Optionally, the dry additive may also be blended with molten or solid urea to form a solid urea-based fertilizer with reduced nitrogen loss from the soil.

Description

    FIELD OF THE INVENTION
  • The field of the invention is urea-containing fertilizers. More specifically, this invention discloses a dry, flowable additive containing N-(n-butyl) thiophosphoric triamide (NBPT), solid urea-formaldehyde polymer (UFP), and, optionally, dicyandiamide (DCD) which can be combined with a urea-based fertilizer to prepare a fertilizer which provides reduced nitrogen loss from the soil.
  • BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
  • Nitrogen is an important plant nutrient. In addition to phosphorous, potassium, and other nutrients, nitrogen is needed to support the growth and development of plant life. Some plants, such as legumes, through a symbiotic relationship with Rhizobium bacteria, fix elemental nitrogen from the atmosphere and fix this nitrogen into the soil. However, most plants grown to produce human and animal food require the use of nitrogen fertilizer in order to sustain their agricultural production.
  • The most widely used and agriculturally important high-analysis nitrogen fertilizer is urea, CO(NH2)2. While most of the urea currently produced is used as a fertilizer in its granular form, urea-based fluid fertilizers are also well known. As used herein, the term “fluid fertilizers” encompasses liquid fertilizers, i.e. aqueous solutions of fertilizers, and suspension fertilizers, i.e. fertilizer compositions which in addition to water and water-soluble components also contain insoluble components kept in suspension by a suspending agent, such as clay. Suspension fertilizers are excellent carriers for pesticides and micronutrients.
  • The most commonly known urea-based liquid fertilizer is an aqueous solution of urea and ammonium nitrate, referred to in the fertilizer trade as UAN solution. These fluid fertilizers are used on a variety of crops, such as corn and wheat. When applied to moist soil, the urea component of the fluid fertilizer becomes a source of ammonia as a result of hydrolysis catalyzed by urease, an enzyme produced by numerous fungi and bacteria. The process is fully disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,364,438, which is hereby incorporated by reference. Unfortunately, the urease-catalyzed hydrolysis often converts the urea to ammonia more quickly than it can be absorbed by the soil, resulting in undesirable ammonia loss to the atmosphere through a process called volatilization.
  • Urease inhibitors slow down the conversion of urea to ammonia, extending the period of nitrogen release. One urease inhibitor is N-(n-butyl) thiophosphoric triamide (NBPT). When incorporated into a urea-based fertilizer, NBPT reduces the rate at which urea is hydrolyzed to ammonia. This allows the nutrient nitrogen to be available to the soil and plants over a longer period of time. NBPT is widely recognized as an effective urease inhibitor, but NBPT is notoriously difficult to handle, because industrial grade NBPT is a waxy, sticky, heat-sensitive and water-sensitive material. As a result, a solvent system was disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,364,438, that allowed the solution of NBPT to be applied to UAN. However, this solution had stability problems as well as problems in delivering and metering into fluid fertilizer.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 5,352,265, which is hereby incorporated by reference, discloses a granular fertilizer comprising about 90 to 99% urea, 0.02 to 0.5% NBPT and about 0 to 2.2% DCD. The NBPT is added to molten urea as a concentrated solution in an amide solvent. The DCD is added to the urea melt as a solid. This granular product is made to apply directly to the field crop.
  • The present invention of a dry flowable additive, is prepared by coating a solid urea-formaldehyde polymer (UFP) with a solution or suspension of NBPT in a liquid solvent, preferably an amide solvent. Optionally, the coated UFP may be blended with solid DCD. Prior to application of the fertilizer to the field crop, the dry flowable additive is blended with a UAN solution or aqueous urea, to form the fluid urea-containing fertilizer composition, or blended with solid or molten urea to form a solid urea-based fertilizer. The present invention provides a fluid or solid fertilizer composition that is easy to handle and stable when stored.
  • SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
  • All percentages are by weight, unless otherwise indicated. The present invention is a fluid fertilizer composition, comprising an aqueous solution of UAN or urea, NBPT and, optionally, DCD. A dry flowable additive for the UAN or aqueous urea is prepared by coating a solid UFP with a solution or suspension of NBPT in a liquid solvent. The NBPT is present in the dry additive in the amount of about 0.40 to 15.0%. The solid UFP is present in the range of about 3.0 to 15.0%. Optionally, solid DCD can be blended with this coated UFP in the range of 40.0 to 95.0%, and silicon dioxide in the range of from about 0 to 3%. Prior to applying the UAN or urea, the dry additive is blended with aqueous UAN or urea in the range of about 0.4 to 2.5% additive to form the fluid urea-containing fertilizer composition. Alternatively, the dry flowable additive may also be added to molten urea or solid urea and granulated to provide a dry fertilizer. The composition of the present invention may be applied to a field crop to minimize the undesired loss of ammonia nitrogen from surface-applied urea and nitrogen loss in the soil due to leaching and denitrification of nitrate nitrogen.
  • DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
  • The term NBPT as used throughout this specification refers not only to N-(n-butyl) thiophosphoric triamide in its pure form, but also to industrial grades or other grades of the material which may contain up to 50% impurities. The preferred NBPT is at least 50% pure, the most preferred NBPT is greater than 50% pure, in the range of about 51 to 90% pure. The NBPT is present in the dry flowable additive in the range of about 0.4 to 15.0%.
  • A NBPT solution or suspension in an amide solvent, such as N-alkyl 2-pyrrolidone, is used to prepare the dry flowable additive of the present invention. The solution or suspension contains between about 30% and about 80% NBPT, and preferably between about 50% and about 75% NBPT. The NBPT solution may be prepared by dissolving or suspending NBPT in a solvent selected from a group of liquid amides such as an N-alkyl 2-pyrrolidone, or by adding the N-alkyl 2-pyrrolidone into the NBPT production system in order to produce an NBPT solution, rather than recover a waxy NBPT solid. Alternatively, molten NBPT, without additional solvents, may be used to coat the UFP in the present invention.
  • The solid UFP of the present invention is preferably a polymethyl urea resin with approximately 0.6% reactive methylol groups. It has primary particles of 0.1 to 0.15 μm, forming agglomerates of 3.5 to 6.5 μm diameter on average. The preferred solid UFP is marketed as PERGOPAK M® 2, a trademark of Albemarle Corporation. The solid UFP is present in the dry flowable additive in the range of about 3 to 15%. The most preferred solid UFP is PERGOPAK M® 2 product or the unrefined pre-cursor to PERGOPAK M® 2.
  • The optional DCD of the present invention has preferably a particle range from about 50 to 350 μm. The DCD is present in the dry flowable additive in the range of about 40 to 95%. In a further embodiment of the invention, the dry flowable additive may contain from about 1.0 to 30.0% solid UFP and from about 99.0 to 70.0% DCD.
  • The balance of the composition consists primarily of water, and an N-alkyl pyrrolidone may also be present in small quantities. The composition may optionally also contain a suspending agent, such as clay, as well as other additives, such as a herbicide, a dye, an NBPT stabilizer, or a micronutrient. Silicon dioxide, a flow agent, is optionally present in an amount of up to about 3% of the dry flowable additive.
  • The dry, flowable additive prepared without the optional DCD contains about 1 to 80% NBPT and about 99 to 20% solid UFP.
  • The dry flowable additive is added to the UAN solution, aqueous urea, or solid or molten urea, in the range of about 0.1 to 5.0% additive in the final product. Preferably, the dry flowable additive is added in the range of about 0.4 to 2.5% to fluid UAN or urea solution, or blends thereof, to form a fluid fertilizer. The fluid urea-based fertilizer of the present invention contains from about 0.004 to 1.50% NBPT, from about 0.040 to 0.850% DCD, from about 0.030 to about 0.30% UFP, and from about 99.9 to 98.0% aqueous UAN. Optionally, the fertilizer can contain up to about 0.03% silicon dioxide. The aqueous UAN contains urea and ammonium nitrate in concentration ranges of about 15 to 50%. A preferred range is from about 25 to 40%.
  • The UAN-based fluid fertilizer composition of this invention can be used in all agricultural applications in which UAN is currently used. These applications include a very wide range of crop and turf species, tillage systems, and fertilizer placement methods.
  • The following example is to illustrate the invention and is not present to limit the invention or claims in any manner.
  • EXAMPLE
  • The Example is a laboratory preparation of a dry flowable additive composition.
