Abstract:
The present invention concerns stable aqueous protein dispersions comprising in an aqueous phase at least one self-assembling protein in dispersed form and also at least one specific dispersant for the self-assembling protein; processes for producing such stable aqueous dispersions; processes for electrospinning self-assembling proteins using such stable aqueous dispersions; processes for producing fibrous sheet bodies or fibers from such aqueous dispersions; the use of such aqueous dispersions for coating surfaces; the use of the materials produced by electrospinning in the manufacture of medical devices, hygiene articles and textiles; and also fibrous or fibrous sheet bodies produced by an electrospinning process of the present invention.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an aqueous co-formulation of metalaxyl, which contains: i. metalaxyl, in particular metalaxyl-M; ii. at least one organic pesticide compound PC1, which has a solubility in water of at most 1 g/l at 20° C. and a melting point in the range from 40 to 100° C.; and iii. an aqueous phase containing water and at least one surfactant; wherein the at least one organic pesticide compound PC1 is present in the form of particles suspended in the aqueous phase and where metalaxyl is essentially present dissolved in the aqueous phase and where the surfactant comprises at least one salt of an oligomer or polymer having a plurality of arylsulfonyl groups. The invention also relates to a process for preparing such formulations, which comprises the following steps: a) providing a suspension of metalaxyl in an aqueous phase containing water, at least one surfactant, which comprises at least one salt of an oligomer or polymer having a plurality of arylsulfonyl groups, b) treating the suspension until metalaxyl is essentially dissolved, to obtain an aqueous composition of metalaxyl, wherein metalaxyl is present in dissolved form; c) mixing the aqueous composition of metalaxyl obtained in step b) with an aqueous suspension of the further organic pesticide compound PC1.
Abstract:
Microcapsules including a capsule shell and a capsule core are disclosed, as well as plant propagation materials including the microcapsules and a process for manufacturing the microcapsules. The capsule shell includes a polyester, and the capsule core includes a water-soluble pesticide and at least 10 wt % of water based on a total weight of the capsule core. A method for controlling undesired insect or mite attack, harmful fungi, and/or undesired vegetation, and/or for regulating the growth of crop plants is also disclosed, wherein the method includes application of the microcapsules. A method of using of the microcapsules to reduce volatility or leaching behavior of the pesticide is also disclosed.

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.
