In modern agriculture, fertilizers are the most significant prerequisite to ensure sustainable
crop production, and the intervention of chemical fertilizers has markedly increased crop …

Urea has served as the primary nitrogenous fertilizer globally since the early 1950s. It is
widely recognized as the most concentrated nitrogen source, containing approximately 46 …

Despite its high chemical value, most of lignin is nowadays burnt as low value fuel. It is
therefore important to find innovative applications for its use. Copper compounds are used …

Phlogopite, one trioctahedral mica, was activated by solvent-free ball milling to serve directly
as slow-release potassium fertilizer. Before the final breakdown of the crystal structure …

Complex inorganic powders based on calcium phosphates have found a plethora of
practical applications. Of particular interest are the CaO-P2O5 system-based multi …

Slow-and controlled-release fertilizers (S/CRFs) are considered as novel and revolutionary
approaches in the field of fertilizer synthesis. S/CRFs are seen as economical and …

This work investigates the Theoretical and Modeling Aspects of the kinetics of the
mechanochemical process. For describing the effects of milling on mechanochemistry …

To improve the use efficiency of fertilizer and to reduce the rate of nitrogen release, a coated
urea was prepared using clay-polymer nanocomposites (CPU). Sepiolite and chitosan were …

The mechanocatalytic formation of carbonaceous films at the interface between sliding
metallic contacts is simultaneously advantageous for reducing friction and adhesion in …

Size reduction is one of the most widely used unit operations in the chemical and allied
industries. Comminution is the process of exposing materials to stress through collisions and …
