Chemistry traditionally relies on reactions in solution, but this method is increasingly
problematic due to the scale of chemical processes and their economic and environmental …

Atom-and energy-efficient synthesis of a crystalline calcium urea sulfate ([Ca (urea) 4] SO4)
cocrystal was explored using thermally controlled mechanochemical methods with calcium …

One of the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals is to achieve food security while
transitioning into sustainable agriculture. This goal has been of utmost importance for a long …

Due to the poor efficacy and environmental contamination caused by the ease of leaching,
highly water-soluble herbicides have received considerable attention. For example …

The designing of low-cost, flexible, and easily degradable sensors with organic materials
compositions is a challenging one in recent advancements in sensor technology. In order to …

Urea cocrystal materials have recently emerged as high nitrogen (N) content fertilizers with
low solubility capable of minimizing N loss and improving their use efficiency. However, their …

This year marks the 50th anniversary of a significant milestone in organic optoelectronics, ie,
the first account of metallic-like conductivity in an entirely organic material, tetrathiafulvalene …

Minerals are an important plant nutrient source, while nitrogen needs to be fixated from air
via energy-intensive processes. Combining urea and mineral-derived zinc and copper …

Controlled-release fertilizers (CRFs) are sustainable alternatives as they can increase crop
yield and minimize environmental contamination associated with conventional fertilizers …

In this work, we report a spiral gas–solid two-phase flow (S-GSF) method based on spiral jet
mills for the continuous mechanochemical preparation of urea co-crystals for the first time …
