  • INCORPORATION OF ALGINATE INTO FERTILIZER FOR QUALITY AND AGRONOMICAL BENEFITS
    Publication number: 20240317654
    Abstract: A fertilizer product and method of making that includes a base fertilizer material such as a NPK based fertilizer that also includes an alginate. The alginate may be crosslinked with a cross-linking agent such as a divalent cation to produce a hydrogel. The alginate may be incorporated into the fertilizer product in the form of a protective layer, co-granulation, embedded component, or combinations thereof. The fertilizer product may also include a hydrophobic component such as an oil or wax that is emulsified with the alginate.

  • HYDROPHOBIC COATINGS TO IMPROVE THE PHYSICAL QUALITY PARAMETERS OF FERTILIZERS
    Publication number: 20240182380
    Abstract: A fertilizer composition including a base fertilizer granule with a hydrophobic or super-hydrophobic coating that reduces fertilizer caking and dust formation. The coating can include a roughening component, which creates micron-scale surface roughness, and a hydrophobic coating. Together, the components of the coating act to physically protect water soluble fertilizers granules from the ingress of moisture and from caking, and increase the resistance of the granules to abrasion.

  • Hydrophobic coatings to improve the physical quality parameters of fertilizers
    Patent number: 11814329
    Abstract: A fertilizer composition including a base fertilizer granule with a hydrophobic or super-hydrophobic coating that reduces fertilizer caking and dust formation. The coating can include a roughening component, which creates micron-scale surface roughness, and a hydrophobic coating containing wax. Together, the components of the coating act to physically protect water soluble fertilizers granules from the ingress of moisture and from caking, and increase the resistance of the granules to abrasion.
