  • Publication number: 20230295057
    Abstract: A wax-based coating for fertilizer granules capable of supplying micronutrients to soil while increasing the surface hydrophobicity and abrasion resistance of the fertilizer granules is disclosed. The wax-based coating provides the flexibility of formulating slow and fast releasing micronutrients, and ensures micronutrients are evenly coated across every fertilizer granule. Single or multi-nutrient combinations of coatings are possible, providing formulation flexibility.

  • Patent number: 11731915
    Abstract: A new slow-release fertilizer is described that is formed by applying graphene oxide (GO) as a carrier for micronutrients such as copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn), in which the micronutrients are efficiently bonded with the functional groups at the surface and sides of the GO sheets due to their affinity to the unpaired oxygen atoms in the GO. The prepared Cu-graphene oxide (Cu-GO) and Zn-graphene oxide (Zn-GO) fertilizers showed a biphasic dissolution behaviour compared to commercial zinc sulphate (ZnSO4) and copper sulphate (CuSO4) fertilizer granules, displaying both fast- and slow-release micronutrient release.
