Urea Supplier Distributor Manufacture in vizag visakhapatnam in india
Vizag chemical Manufactuure , urea also known as carbamide, is an organic compound with chemical formula CO(NH2)2. This amide has two –NH2 groups joined by a carbonyl (C=O) functional group.Urea serves an important role in the metabolism of nitrogen-containing compounds by animals and is the main nitrogen-containing substance in the urine of mammals. It is a colorless, odorless solid, highly soluble in water, and practically non-toxic (LD50 is 15 g/kg for rats). Dissolved in water, it is neither acidic nor alkaline. The body uses it in many processes, most notably nitrogen excretion. The liver forms it by combining two ammonia molecules (NH3) with a carbon dioxide (CO2) molecule in the urea cycle. Urea is widely used in fertilizers as a source of nitrogen and is an important raw material for the chemical industry.
Uses of urea
Agriculture
In grain and cotton crops, urea is often applied at the time of the last cultivation before planting. In high rainfall areas and on sandy soils (where nitrogen can be lost through leaching) and where good in-season rainfall is expected, urea can be side- or top-dressed during the growing season. Top-dressing is also popular on pasture and forage crops. In cultivating sugarcane, urea is side-dressed after planting, and applied to each ratoon crop.
Chemical industry
Urea is a raw material for the manufacture of two main classes of materials: urea-formaldehyde resins and urea-melamine-formaldehyde used in marine plywood.
ExplosivesUrea can be used to make urea nitrate, a high explosive that is used industrially and as part of some improvised explosive devices. It is a stabilizer in nitrocellulose explosives.
Miscellaneous uses
A component of animal feed, providing a relatively cheap source of nitrogen to promote growth.
A non-corroding alternative to rock salt for road de-icing. It is often the main ingredient of pet friendly salt substitutes although it is less effective than traditional rock salt or calcium chloride.
A main ingredient in hair removers such as Nair and Veet.
A browning agent in factory-produced pretzels
An ingredient in some skin cream, moisturizers, hair conditioners, and shampoos
A cloud seeding agent, along with other salts.
A flame-proofing agent, commonly used in dry chemical fire extinguisher charges such as the urea-potassium bicarbonate mixture
An ingredient in many tooth whitening products.
An ingredient in dish soap.
Along with diammonium phosphate, as a yeast nutrient, for fermentation of sugars into ethanol.
A nutrient used by plankton in ocean nourishment experiments for geoengineering purposes.
As an additive to extend the working temperature and open time of hide glue.
As a solubility-enhancing and moisture-retaining additive to dye baths for textile dyeing or printing.
