  • Patent number: 4599102
    Abstract: In a preferred embodiment, a triazone mixture contains triazone present in an amount of at-least about 30% calculated on a dry weight basis of 100% solids, methylenediurea in an amount less than about 2%, monomethylolurea in an amount less than about 3%, and total methylenediurea and monomethylolurea taken-together being less than about 5%, and hexamethylenetetramine in an amount less than about 1%, in water solution, of which on a dry weight basis the ratio of traizone to methylenediurea is at-least about 6 and the ratio of triazone to urea is greater than about 1, of which typically about 80% of the triazone present is of the emperical formula C.sub.3 H.sub.7 N.sub.3 O in cyclic form, and a majority of remaining triazone present is of the emperical formula C.sub.5 H.sub.10 N.sub.4 O.sub.

  • Patent number: 4554005
    Abstract: In a preferred embodiment, a triazone mixture contains triazone present in an amount of at-least about 30% calculated on a dry weight basis of 100% solids, methylene diurea in an amount less than about 2%, monomethylolurea in an amount less than about 3%, and total methylene diurea and monomethylolurea taken-together being less than about 3%, and hexamethylenetetramine in an amount less than about 0.5%, in water solution, of which on a dry weight basis the ratio of triazone to methylene diurea is at-least about 13 and the ratio of triazone to urea is greater than about 0.5, of which typically about 80% of the triazone present is of the emperical formula C.sub.3 M.sub.7 N.sub.3 O in cyclic form, and a majority of remaining triazone present is of the emperical formula C.sub.5 M.sub.10 N.sub.4 O.sub.
