UREA - RBU™

UREA - RBU™ is REDUCED BIURET UREA prill is a small diameter, spherical white solid. It is an organic molecule called an amide containing 46% nitrogen in the form of amine groups. This UREA is specially manufactured by quickly melting UREA crystal and prilling. Unlike traditional prilling, the short heating step from crystal to prill results in a very low BIURET formation. UREA is infi nitely soluble in water and is a benign and safe chemical to handle.

    Storage & Handling

    Storage and Handling Information
    • UREA will decompose into ammonia and carbon dioxide at 275°F.
    • ALWAYS wash vessels containing UREA thoroughly before attempting repairs requiring welding.
    • NEVER allow UREA to come into contact with nitric acid. The resulting chemical is unstable and dangerous.
