Abstract:
The invention provides aqueous pesticidal concentrates comprising at least one colloidal solid, a dispersed emulsion phase comprising at least one substantially water-insoluble pesticidally active ingredient, which is either itself an oily liquid comprising the oil phase, is a solid but is dissolved in an oily liquid present in the oil phase, is a solid and is dispersed within the oil phase or is present as a colloidal solid adsorbed to the liquid-liquid interface between the continuous aqueous phase and the dispersed oil phase and at least one Ostwald ripening inhibitor.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to methods for generating polymeric particles which comprise one or more active ingredients. The invention also relates to the use of such polymeric particles as a seed treatment. The present technology provides an improved seed treatment suitable for applying plant propagation materials. The seed treatment of the present technology includes the use of high aspect-ratio particles as a seed treatment. The present technology has been found to have advantageous properties associated with the seed treatment including increased adherence of the formulation to the seed and reduced tendency to dust off.
