Abstract
Methods of forming a fertilizer composition having slow-release nitrogen compounds with a molten process are disclosed. The methods include mixing of a polyethylene wax with urea, formaldehyde, and one or more of an acid catalyst and emulsifier to form a molten methylene urea mixture. The contents of the molten methylene urea mixture react to form slow-release nitrogen compounds. Fertilizer compositions formed of, or including, the slow-release nitrogen compounds are also disclosed.
