in order to increase grain yield, nitrogen use efficiency (nue) and nitrogen apparent recovery fraction (narf) in wheat (triticum aestivum l.), this experiment was carried out with 5 or 6 treatments and 3 or 4 replications in 14 locations at 22 different sites in iran during the 2004-05 growing season. the experiment was designed as a completely randomized block. the effect of n sources and tim...

in this study, the particleboard was made with rice husk and urea formaldehyde resin of 7, 8, 9 and 10 percent (based on dry weight of rice husk). to improve mechanism of bondability a definite amount of isocyanate resin is introduced to replace the same amount of urea formaldehyde resin. the effect of urea formaldehyde resin and diisocyanate content on bondability was evaluated by studying the...

The Haber–Bosch process for the commercial production of ammonia demonstrated in 1913 was a watershed event in the mass production of urea, the principal nitrogen fertilizer for modern agriculture. Today, thanks to the so-called “green revolution” starting in in the 1960s, nearly half of the world population relies on increased crop yields, through the use of nitrogen fertilizers, to access aff...

partial replacement of formaldehyde with furfural in the urea-formaldehyde resin on the formaldehydeemission, physical and mechanical properties of particleboard was investigated. the modulus ofrupture (mor), modulus of elasticity (moe), internal bond (ib), water absorption (wa), thicknessswelling (ts) and formaldehyde emission (fe) of poplar particleboards made with the modifiedresins were mea...

This research aims to formulate and characterize the alginate-starch micro beads as a slow release urea fertilizer, using CaCl2 extrusion technique. experiment also investigates effect of alginate starch composition on color, swelling ratio, biodegradability, entrapment efficiency release. The result study showed that turned darker in color diameter its wet dry ranges between 3.18-3.40 mm 1.12-...

Several techniques have been used for sand production control in sandstone reservoirs.The main objective of this research is to present a suitable resin to be used as a consolidation agent in oil reservoirs. To achieve this purpose, urea-formaldehyde resin, phenol-formaldehyde resin, and modified urea-formaldehyde resin were selected to be studied. Core samples were made by the sand sample prov...

Nitrogen is an important element in the life of a plant. A wide range of nitrogen-containing compounds is available in the world market, with different formulations and efficiencies. Urea is present in most fertilizer applications; however, nano-nitrogen products are becoming popular although there is only limited information on their field efficiency. Thus, this paper studied the foliar applic...
