Description
Urea (CO(NH₂)₂) is the world's most widely used nitrogenous fertilizer, containing approximately 46% nitrogen by weight — the highest nitrogen content of any solid fertilizer. It is produced synthetically from ammonia and carbon dioxide through the Haber-Bosch process. Beyond agriculture, urea is also an important industrial chemical used in plastics manufacturing, resins, and as a diesel exhaust fluid (DEF/AdBlue).
Key Applications
- Nitrogenous fertilizer for rice, corn, wheat, and other crops.
- Industrial feedstock for melamine and urea-formaldehyde resins.
- Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF/AdBlue) for SCR emission systems.
- Animal feed supplement (non-protein nitrogen source).
