Patent ID: 8133294

Claim:
A method of producing reduced volatility of urea fertilizers comprising: a) dissolving N-(n-butyl)-thiophosphoric triamide (NBPT) in a mixture of an amino alcohol having the formula 1—(H) x —N—((CH 2 ) m —OH) n where m is 1-3, x is 0 or 1, and n is 2 when x is 1 and 3 when x is 0: or the formula 2—(H) y —N—((CH 2 )—CHOH—CH 3 ) z such that the length of the carbon chain where the secondary hydroxyl group is located is 3, y is 0 or 1, and z is 2 when y is 1 and 3 when y is 0, and a carboxylic acid having 6 or fewer carbon atoms to form an NBPT solution; and b) combining said NBPT solution with said urea fertilizer.
