Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of agricultural production technology, and relates to a water-retaining compound fertilizer, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Soils in arid regions of Northwest and North my country, as well as along the Yellow River, are characterized by large porosity, rapid water infiltration, and poor water and fertilizer retention capacity. Therefore, irrigation water infiltrates quickly during crop cultivation, resulting in water use efficiency below 40%, and significant nutrient loss, particularly low nitrogen utilization. These problems lead to low crop germination rates and severe nutrient deficiency in the later stages of growth. Existing water-retaining fertilizers are mostly general-purpose materials such as potassium polyacrylate, polyacrylamide, and superabsorbent polymers, which suffer from the following main problems: poor soil affinity, easily washed away by water; lack of environmental responsiveness, unable to adjust release according to temperature changes; low mechanical strength, easily damaged by sand friction; and rapid nutrient release, failing to meet the needs of crops throughout their entire growth cycle.
[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a fertilizer that is suitable for soil characteristics, has temperature response capabilities, and is long-lasting, water-retaining, and slow-release. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this invention is to provide a water-retaining compound fertilizer, its preparation method and application.
[0005] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a water-retaining compound fertilizer, which comprises, from the inside out, a bentonite-diatomite composite, a temperature-sensitive hydrogel, fertilizer nutrients, and a temperature-responsive membrane.
[0007] The raw materials for preparing the temperature-responsive membrane include polyglutamic acid, chitosan, and water.
[0008] This invention aims to address the problems of rapid soil moisture loss, large soil porosity, and low water and fertilizer retention capacity in arid regions such as Northwest and North China, providing a temperature-responsive water-retaining compound fertilizer suitable for arid soils. This fertilizer is prepared and encapsulated through a multi-layered material consisting of a mineral framework, temperature-sensitive hydrogel, nutrient core, and a surface-responsive layer. It can sense temperature changes in highly permeable soil environments, achieving the retention and release of water and nutrients, thus solving the problems of soil water and fertilizer leakage, low fertilizer nutrient utilization, and short-lived fertilizer effects. This invention comprehensively utilizes various materials to form a temperature-responsive water-retaining compound fertilizer suitable for arid soils. After application to the soil, it improves soil aggregate structure, promotes nutrient and water retention, and intelligently senses external temperature, responding to temperature changes to retain and release water. Furthermore, the fertilizer particles are rigidly supported by a mineral framework, flexibly bonded together by temperature-sensitive hydrogel, and densely protected by a surface-responsive layer. The layers are chemically bonded and strengthened, resulting in increased particle strength, strong slow-release of fertilizer nutrients, and long-lasting nutrient release. The fertilizer prepared by this invention has a water absorption rate of 350 g / g in the soil and a water retention time that is 2.3 times longer. It is suitable for crops such as corn, cotton, and potatoes in the arid Northwest region and can significantly reduce irrigation frequency and nutrient loss rate.
[0009] The fertilizer has a water absorption ratio of ≥180 g / g in soil, a solubility of <5% at 5℃, and a solubility of >60% at 35℃. The hybrid microspheres have a particle size of 2.0-4.75 mm and a compressive strength of >40 N / sphere.

[0030] In a second aspect, the present invention provides a method for preparing the water-retaining compound fertilizer according to the first aspect, the method comprising:
[0031] (1) The bentonite-diatomite composite was mixed with the raw materials for the preparation of thermosensitive hydrogel to obtain the first mixture;
[0032] (2) Grind the fertilizer nutrients and mix them with the first mixture in a molten state to obtain the second mixture;
[0033] (3) Spray the mixture of polyglutamic acid, chitosan and water onto the surface of the second mixture to obtain the final product.
[0034] Compound fertilizer nutrients are ground into ultrafine dry powder and evenly sprinkled into a fluidized "hot" particle group at 55℃. Simultaneously, a very small amount of plasticizer is sprayed to instantly "melt" and adhere the powder. After 10 minutes, a 0.15 mm nutrient coating forms on the core surface, requiring no drying. Thermosensitive hydrogel, formed by copolymerizing N-isopropylacrylamide and acrylamide, has a critical sensing temperature of 32-35℃ and combines with a mineral framework to form hybrid microspheres.
[0035] After spraying a polyglutamic acid and chitosan composite solution, the mixture is air-dried to form a biodegradable responsive film with a thickness of about 3 μm, resulting in the final product with a particle size of 2-4 mm and a moisture content of <5%.
[0036] In some embodiments, the mixing of the bentonite-diatomite composite with the raw materials for the preparation of the thermosensitive hydrogel specifically includes: mixing the bentonite-diatomite composite with polymerized N-isopropylacrylamide, acrylamide, and N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide, adding potassium persulfate aqueous solution dropwise, and reacting.
[0037] Using a mineral sphere core as a solid-phase substrate, water-soluble thermosensitive monomers N-isopropylacrylamide, comonomer acrylamide, and crosslinking agent N,N′-methylenebisacrylamide are dispersed in an aqueous system. By heating, the initiator potassium persulfate decomposes to generate free radicals, causing the monomers to undergo addition polymerization on the surface of the mineral sphere core. At the same time, the crosslinking agent N,N′-methylenebisacrylamide connects the linear polymer chains into a three-dimensional network gel structure. Finally, the gel layer tightly coats the surface of the sphere core, forming hybrid microspheres. The thermosensitive critical temperature is controlled to 32-35℃.
[0038] In some embodiments, the fertilizer nutrients are further mixed with a plasticizer when mixed with the molten first mixture.
[0039] In some embodiments, the reaction is carried out at a temperature of 50-70°C for a time of 2-5 hours.
[0040] Temperatures can be selected from 50℃, 52℃, 55℃, 58℃, 60℃, 62℃, 65℃, 68℃, 70℃, etc., and time can be selected from 2 h, 2.2 h, 2.5 h, 2.8 h, 3 h, 3.2 h, 3.5 h, 3.8 h, 4 h, 4.2 h, 4.5 h, 4.8 h, 5 h, etc. Other specific point values within the above range can be selected, which will not be elaborated here.
[0041] In some embodiments, the amount of plasticizer added is 0.1-0.3%, such as 0.1%, 0.12%, 0.15%, 0.18%, 0.2%, 0.22%, 0.25%, 0.28%, 0.3%, etc. Other specific values within the above range can be selected, and will not be described in detail here.
[0042] In some embodiments, the plasticizer includes one or more of dibutyl phthalate (DBP), dimethyl phthalate (DMP), and diethyl phthalate (DEP).
[0043] In some embodiments, the mixing temperature is 50-80°C and the time is 1-10 minutes.
[0044] Temperatures can be selected from 50℃, 52℃, 55℃, 58℃, 60℃, 62℃, 65℃, 68℃, 70℃, 72℃, 75℃, 78℃, 80℃, etc., and time can be selected from 1 min, 2 min, 3 min, 4 min, 5 min, 6 min, 7 min, 8 min, 9 min, 10 min, etc. Other specific values within the above range can be selected, which will not be elaborated here.
[0045] Thirdly, the present invention provides an application of the water-retaining compound fertilizer according to the first aspect in agricultural production in arid regions.
[0046] The water-retaining compound fertilizer described in this invention is suitable for corn, cotton, and potato crops.
