Urea,(NH2)2CO, is a colorless organic chemical compound also known by the International Nonproprietary Name (rINN) carbamide, as established by the World Health Organization. It is highly soluble in water and has a pKa close to zero. Urea is essentially the waste produced when the body metabolizes protein. It is not only produced by humans, but also by many other mammals, as well as amphibians and some fish. Urea was the first natural compound to be artificially synthesized using inorganic compounds — a scientific breakthrough.
Application
Agriculture
More than 90 percent of world urea production is destined for use as a nitrogen-release fertilizer. Urea has the highest nitrogen content of all solid nitrogenous fertilizers in common use (46.7%). Therefore, it has the lowest transportation costs per unit of nitrogen nutrient.
Chemical industry
Urea is a raw material used in the manufacture of many important chemicals, such as:
Various plastics, especially the Urea-formaldehyde resins.
Various adhesives, such as Urea-formaldehyde or the urea-melamine-formaldehyde used in marine plywood.
Potassium cyanate, another industrial feedstock Urea nitrate, an explosive.
Urea has the ability to trap many organic compounds in the form of clathrates. The organic compounds are held in channels formed by interpenetrating helices comprising of hydrogen-bonded urea molecules. This behavior can be used to separate mixtures, and has been used in the production of aviation fuel and lubricating oils, and in the separation of paraffin.
As the helices are interconnected, all helices in a crystal must have the same molecular handedness. This is determined when the crystal is nucleated and can thus be forced by seeding. The resulting crystals have been used to separate racemic mixtures.
