Abstract
A hydrolyzed lignosulfonate-acrylonitrile graft copolymer matrix providing slow release solubility to urea fertilizer. The hydrolysis of the graft copolymer of lignosulfonate and acrylonitrile may be carried out in the presence of a caustic in situ during the urea prill manufacturing process or in a prehydrolysis step with subsequent use of the hydrolyzed copolymer in the urea prill manufacturing process to provide the controlled release formulation for urea.
