Abstract:
The present invention relates to an agrochemical aqueous suspension concentrate comprising a pesticide in the form of pesticide particles and at least 5 wt % of an adjuvant dissolved in the aqueous phase, wherein the adjuvant is of the formula (I) as defined herein. The invention also relates to the adjuvant as defined in formula (I). Furthermore, the invention relates to a process for the preparation of the suspension concentrate by contacting water, the pesticide, and the adjuvant. The present invention further relates to a method of controlling phytopathogenic fungi and/or undesired plant growth and/or undesired insect or mite attack and/or for regulating the growth of plants.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a granulate comprising a carboxylic growth regulator and a solid acidifier. The invention further relates to a method for producing the granulate by extrusion or fluidized bed granulation. The invention further relates to a use of the granulate for producing an aqueous spray mixture, in which the granulate is brought into contact with water, and the use of the granulate for regulating the growth of plants.
Abstract:
Herbicidally active composition containing a) the compound of formula (I), wherein X is a monovalent cation, and b) water, characterized in that the compound of the formula (I) is present dissolved in water.
Abstract:
Provided herein are microcapsules comprising a capsule core and a capsule shell. The capsule shell includes a core surrounding a layer of a polyvinyl alcohol and an adjacent layer of a polyoxazoline, and the capsule core includes a water-insoluble pesticide. Further provided herein is a process for producing the microcapsule, including: a) preparation of an oil-in-water emulsion with a disperse phase which includes the pesticide and an aqueous continuous phase and the polyvinyl alcohol, and b) subsequent addition of one or more of the polyoxazoline. The process relates to a method of controlling phytopathogenic fungi, undesired plant growth, and/or undesired insect or mite attack, and/or for regulating the growth of plants, wherein the microcapsules act on the respective pests, their environment, the crop plants to be protected from the respective pest, on the soil, on undesired plants, on the crop plants, and/or on the environment of each plant.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to aqueous concentrate formulations for plant protection comprising: - 2-chloro-5-[3,6-dihydro-3-methyl-2,6-dioxo-4-(trifluoromethyl)-1-(2H)pyrimidinyl]-4-fluoro-N-[[methyl(1-methylethyl)amino]sulfonyl]benzamide in the form of its anhydrate; - Λ/-(phosphonomethyl)glycine in the form of its free acid, in the form of the ammonium salt or a substituted ammonium salt or a mixture thereof; - at least two different non-ionic surfactants with at least one of them comprising an ethylene oxide polymer moiety or an ethylene oxide/C 3 -C 4 -alkylene oxide block copolymer moiety, and - water; wherein the pH-value of the formulation is below 6.
Abstract:
Herbicidally active composition containing a) the compound of formula (I), wherein X is a monovalent cation, and b) water, characterized in that the compound of the formula (I) is present dissolved in water.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a composition comprising microcapsules, which comprise a polyurea shell and a core, wherein the core comprises pendimethalin and the shell comprises a polymerization product of a tetramethylxylylene diisocyanate, and a polyamine with at least three amine groups, and where the polymerization product comprises less than 5 wt % of further isocyanate monomers in polymerized form, based on the weight of the tetramethylxylylene diisocyanate; a method for preparing the composition comprising the steps of contacting water, the pendimethalin, the tetramethylxylylene diisocyanate, and the polyamine; and to a method of controlling undesired plant growth, wherein the composition is allowed to act on the soil and/or on undesired plants and/or on the crop plants and/or on their environment.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a process for producing a granular material comprising prohexadione-calcium and an inorganic sulfate, comprising the fluidized bed granulation of an aqueous dispersion comprising prohexadione-calcium and an aqueous solution comprising at least one inorganic sulfate. The invention further relates to a homogeneous granular material comprising an inorganic sulfate and prohexadione-calcium, wherein the inorganic sulfate and the prohexadione-calcium are distributed homogeneously in the granular material and the granular material has a porous matrix structure. The present invention further relates to the use of the homogeneous granular material for regulating the growth of plants, especially in the form of a spray liquor.
