Abstract:
The invention relates to aqueous active ingredient compositions in which the active ingredient or ingredients are present in the form of an aqueous dispersion of finely divided polymer-active ingredient particles which comprise at least one water-insoluble polymer P, at least one surface-active substance, and at least one organic active crop protection ingredient which is present in the polymer particles and has a solubility in water of not more than 5 g/l at 25°C/101.325 hPa, in which the polymer-active ingredient particles have an average particle diameter, determined by dynamic light scattering, in the range from 300 to 1200 nm, preferably in the range from 310 to 1000 nm, and more particularly in the range from 320 to 800 nm, the polymer P being a polymer of ethylenically unsaturated monomers M which comprise 0.1 % to 10%, more particularly 0.2% to 7%, and especially 0.3% to 5%, by weight, based on the total amount of the constituent monomers M of the polymer P, of at least one monoethylenically unsaturated compound M2 which is selected from monoethylenically unsaturated sulfonic acids, monoethylenically unsaturated phosphonic acids, and monoethylenically unsaturated phosphoric monoesters, and also the salts thereof, the amounts in % by weight being based on the acid form of the monomer M2. The invention also relates to a process for preparing them and to the use of active ingredient compositions of this kind.
Abstract:
The invention relates to seed treatment compositions comprising active ingredient, polyarylphenol polyalkoxy ether phosphate and/or polyarylphenol polyalkoxy ether sulphate, and copolymer having polyalkoxy ether side chains. The polyarylphenol polyalkoxy ether phosphate and/or the polyarylphenol polyalkoxy ether sulphate in combination with the copolymer having polyalkoxy ether side chains are used as dispersant, especially to provide a dispersion of suspended active ingredient. The present invention also relates to methods of treating seed with such a composition.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method comprising treating plant propagation material with at least sticker selected from specific acrylate co-copolymers, to seed dressing formulations comprising such stickers and to plant propagation material coated with such stickers.

The present invention also relates to methods of treating seed with such a composition.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to formulation comprising at least (i) two pesticidal compounds A and B dissolved in a lactic acid ester and wherein a) both A and B have melting points below 900C b) both A and B are selected from the following list: pyraclos- trobin, metalaxyl, mefenoxam, trifloxystrobin, imazalil, pro- chloraz and ipconazole with the proviso that A is different from B (ii) at least one pesticidal compound C present in solid particles, and having a melting point of 900C and above, and to their use as seed treatment formulation as well as their use for plant protection, including seed and crop protection.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for the production of particles which comprise two active agrochemical ingredients in amorphous form, by emulsifying a melt encompassing the two molten active agrochemical ingredients in an aqueous solution and cooling the product. The invention further relates to the use of an active agrochemical ingredient for inhibiting the crystallization of another active agrochemical ingredient in a process to produce particles which comprise the two active agrochemical ingredients in amorphous form, by emulsifying a melt encompassing the two molten active agrochemical ingredients in an aqueous solution and cooling the product. The invention further relates to particles which comprise two active agrochemical ingredients in amorphous form. The application in plant protection is likewise described.
