Abstract

A process for preparing an improved urea-formaldehyde concentrate particularly adapted for production of slow-release nitrogenous fertilizers. The improvement is achieved by accurately controlling the buffer strength and the degree of polymerization of the urea-formaldehyde concentrate within specified critical limits. The process can be operated to also produce a different urea-formaldehyde concentrate suitable for use in adhesives.
