The present invention relates to a controlled-release type fertilizer with outstandingly decreased floating property, comprising a granular fertilize core; a coating layer (shell) formed on the surface of the granular fertilizer core, and comprising olefin-based resin; and additives attached on the coating layer, and comprising ethylene oxide-propylene oxide-ethylene oxide(EO-PO-EO) or propylene oxide-ethylene oxide-propylene oxide(PO-EO-PO) tri-block copolymer.

Described herein, inter alia, is a concentrate including a high ionic strength liquid and a microfibrillated cellulose, and methods of making the same.

The present development is a composition for a commercial fertilizer product that provides for nitrogen, phosphate and/or potassium availability to the plant even in a hostile growing environment with hard water sources. The fertilizer of the present invention includes a polyamine additive, water, and soluble nitrogen, potassium, and/or phosphate, that are essentially unaffected by hard water thereby retaining their availability to the target plants.

This invention relates to the art of fertilizers and, more particularly, to a coated granular fertilizer in which the dissolution rates of water-soluble fertilizer components are controlled by coating or encapsulating a granular fertilizer. The coating for the timed-release fertilizer is derived from plant cellulose extracted from hemp cellulose, sugar cane cellulose, or other plant-based cellulose.

A preparation method of charcoal-based fertilizer is provided. Particularly, a special pig manure charcoal modified by amino grafting, a preparation method thereof, and its application in the reuse of nitrogen from farmland drainage are provided. The preparation method includes the following steps: 1) drying raw pig manure to a moisture content of 80%-85% and carrying out pickling, drying, and crushing successively to obtain a dried pig manure powder; 2) conducting liquid nitrogen pretreatment and high-temperature charcoalization to obtain an expanded pig manure charcoal; 3) performing carboxylation treatment to obtain a carboxylated pig manure charcoal; 4) amino grafting: adding an ammonia liquor to the carboxylated pig manure charcoal obtained in step 3), stirring for 20-24 h in an oil bath at 200-240° C.; washing and filtering; and drying and grinding to obtain the special pig manure charcoal modified by amino grafting.

Epoxy soybean oil polyol is firstly prepared by open-ring etherification of an epoxy soybean oil and a small molecular alcohol with an organic acid catalyst, and then the epoxy soybean oil polyol is further esterified with an organic acid under an esterification catalyst to prepare a polyester polyol with a high biomass ratio. The polyester polyol includes a compound having an Ñ-type structure and a compound having an Ò-type structure. A method for preparing the polyester polyol is provided, as well as a polyurethane controlled-release fertilizer envelope and a polyurethane controlled-release fertilizer prepared by cross-linking the polyester polyol and MDI on surfaces of the fertilizer. The epoxy soybean oil and the small molecular alcohol can be derived from biomass, so a biomass content is high, the synthesized product is environmentally safe, and product performance is excellent.
