AI Technical Summary
The coating materials of existing bio-compound fertilizers lack targeted modification design, resulting in poor adhesion, insufficient structural stability, easy breakage and detachment, and difficulty in achieving precise control of nutrient release. They also cannot respond to the dynamic changes in the rhizosphere environment during the crop growth period, leading to a mismatch between nutrient supply and demand.
Polyacrylic acid and polyβ-hydroxybutyrate were used as the base coating materials, and modified by adding sodium alginate and nano silica to form a stable intermolecular hydrogen bond cross-linking structure, which improved the adhesion and response sensitivity. Nano silica served as a carrier of response sites to regulate the nutrient release rate.
It achieves stability and precise nutrient release under different soil conditions, reduces nutrient loss, and improves the utilization rate of bio-compound fertilizer and the survival rate of live bacteria colonization.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of organic fertilizer technology, specifically to a bio-compound fertilizer and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] With the development of large-scale and intensive agriculture, adverse conditions such as soil salinization, continuous cropping, and acidification are becoming increasingly prominent, severely disrupting the soil micro-ecological balance, reducing crop nutrient absorption efficiency, and hindering the improvement of agricultural yield and quality. Bio-compound fertilizer, as a new type of fertilizer that combines nutrient supply, soil improvement, and micro-ecological regulation, integrates the rapid effectiveness of inorganic nutrients, the soil-improving properties of organic components, and the functionality of microorganisms. It has become an important tool for overcoming soil adverse conditions and promoting green and sustainable agricultural development, and is widely used in the cultivation of various crops such as corn, wheat, peanuts, greenhouse vegetables, and fruit trees.
[0003] However, existing bio-compound fertilizers still face numerous technical bottlenecks in actual production and application, particularly the imperfections in coating technology, which hinders product performance from meeting the core needs of field cultivation. Firstly, the coating materials of existing bio-compound fertilizers mostly employ single polymers or simple blends, lacking targeted modification design. This results in poor adhesion and insufficient structural stability, making the coating prone to damage and detachment during fertilizer storage, transportation, and application. This leads to premature leakage and loss of internal inorganic nutrients, not only wasting nutrients but also causing microbial inactivation due to direct contact between high-salt inorganic nutrients and functional microorganisms. This significantly reduces the survival rate of live bacteria in the field, preventing the effective functioning of microorganisms in promoting growth and preventing disease, resulting in a discrepancy between the actual application effect and the design expectations. Secondly, existing coating technologies struggle to achieve precise control of nutrient release. Most coatings only achieve simple physical isolation and slow release, failing to respond to the dynamic changes in the rhizosphere environment during the crop's growth period. On the one hand, the coating has low sensitivity and poor stability in response to changes in rhizosphere pH. Under adverse conditions such as crop nutrient stress (rhizosphere pH drops to 5.0-5.5) or saline-alkali environment (rhizosphere pH rises to 7.5-8.0), it cannot adjust the nutrient release rate in time, resulting in a mismatch between nutrient supply and crop demand. On the other hand, the coating has a weak ability to sense the concentration of available nitrogen and available phosphorus in the soil, making it difficult to achieve micro-control of nutrient release based on nutrient concentration thresholds. This can easily lead to loss and waste caused by excessively rapid nutrient release, or crop nutrient deficiency caused by excessively slow release.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a bio-compound fertilizer and its preparation method to improve the nutrient utilization efficiency and overall effectiveness of bio-compound fertilizer. Summary of the Invention
[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a bio-compound fertilizer and its preparation method. Using polyacrylic acid and polyβ-hydroxybutyrate as the base coating materials, the fertilizer is modified and optimized by adding sodium alginate and nano-silica. This allows the coating to respond to rhizosphere pH signals and soil nutrient concentrations, synchronizing nutrient release with crop growth stage requirements, reducing nutrient loss from the bio-compound fertilizer, and improving utilization.

[0023] Beneficial technical effects:
[0024] This application uses polyacrylic acid and polyβ-hydroxybutyrate as the basic coating materials, and modifies and optimizes them by adding sodium alginate and nano-silica. The hydroxyl and carboxyl groups on the sodium alginate molecular chain can form stable intermolecular hydrogen bonds with polyacrylic acid and polyβ-hydroxybutyrate molecules. On the one hand, this hydrogen bonding crosslinking optimizes the coating molecular network structure, enhances the adhesion of the coating to fertilizer particles, and prevents nutrient loss due to coating damage. On the other hand, it can regulate the dissociation environment of the carboxyl groups in polyacrylic acid, enabling precise and reversible dissociation / association of carboxyl groups even with slight changes in rhizosphere pH, thus strengthening pH control. The sensitivity and stability of the response allow for more precise control of the hydrophilicity / phobicity and porosity of the coating under crop nutrient stress (pH 5.0-5.5) and saline-alkali environments (pH 7.5-8.0). The uniform filling of nano-silica into the pores of the polyacrylic acid and polyβ-hydroxybutyrate blend not only improves the density and structural uniformity of the coating, reducing deviations in the coating degradation rate under complex field conditions and preventing erratic nutrient release, but also acts as a carrier for response sites, adsorbing the carboxyl sites of polyacrylic acid and soil nutrient ions, amplifying the -COO groups after the nutrient ions dissociate from the polyacrylic acid. - The complexation signal allows the coating to precisely regulate the stability of the coating structure by changing the strength of the complexation when the concentration of available nitrogen and available phosphorus in the soil deviates slightly from the crop's required threshold, thereby achieving micro-regulation of nutrient release. Ultimately, the modified coating can stably and accurately regulate the nutrient release rate in the field environment based on changes in rhizosphere pH and nutrient concentration.

[0083]
[0084] The bio-compound fertilizer prepared in Examples 1-3 of this invention uses polyacrylic acid and polyβ-hydroxybutyrate as the basic coating materials, and is modified and optimized by adding sodium alginate and nano-silica. The hydroxyl and carboxyl groups on the sodium alginate molecular chain can form stable intermolecular hydrogen bonds with polyacrylic acid and polyβ-hydroxybutyrate molecules. On the one hand, this hydrogen bonding crosslinking optimizes the coating molecular network structure, enhances the adhesion of the coating to fertilizer particles, and prevents nutrient loss due to coating damage. On the other hand, it can regulate the dissociation environment of the carboxyl groups in polyacrylic acid, enabling precise and reversible dissociation of the carboxyl groups even with slight changes in rhizosphere pH. The association enhances the sensitivity and stability of pH response, allowing for more precise control of hydrophilicity / phobicity and porosity of the coating under crop nutrient stress (pH 5.0-5.5) and saline-alkali environments (pH 7.5-8.0). Nano-silica uniformly fills the pores of the polyacrylic acid and polyβ-hydroxybutyrate blend system, not only improving the density and structural uniformity of the coating and reducing deviations in the coating degradation rate under complex field conditions, thus avoiding sudden changes in nutrient release, but also serving as a carrier for response sites. It adsorbs the carboxyl sites of polyacrylic acid and soil nutrient ions, amplifying the -COO groups after the nutrient ions dissociate from the polyacrylic acid. - The complexation signal allows the coating to precisely regulate the stability of the coating structure by changing the strength of the complexation when the concentration of available nitrogen and available phosphorus in the soil deviates slightly from the crop's required threshold, thereby achieving micro-regulation of nutrient release. Ultimately, the modified coating can stably and accurately regulate the nutrient release rate in the field environment based on changes in rhizosphere pH and nutrient concentration.
[0085] Among them, the comparative examples, lacking one or two key modifying components such as sodium alginate and nano silica, could not form hydrogen bond cross-linking and pore filling effects, nor could they amplify response signals. As a result, they lost their precise pH-nutrient dual-response capability, leading to insufficient membrane adhesion, high breakage rate, and large fluctuations in nutrient release rate. Ultimately, all comparative examples showed low viable bacterial retention rate, poor membrane stability, and poor nutrient release regulation.
[0086] It should be understood that the above are only some embodiments of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for those skilled in the art, other modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the inventive concept of the present invention, and these all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
