Development of a Polyacrylate/Silica Nanoparticle Hybrid Emulsion for Delaying Nutrient Release in Coated Controlled-Release Urea
Polyacrylate/silica hybrid emulsions were prepared by blending aqueous silica nanoparticles with polyacrylate emulsion, which were used for coating urea granules. After incorporating 1.0 wt.% silica nanoparticles into polyacrylate emulsion, preliminary solubility of CRU was decreased from 38.3% to 2...
