Abstract:
A method of recovering oil from a subterranean formation is suggested, comprising injection into said formation an aqueous composition comprising a surface-active amount of an alkyl or alkenyl oligoglycoside.
Abstract:
Suggested are herbicidal compositions comprising a lithium salt of glyphosate and one or more surfactants, the surfactant(s) enhancing the herbicidal efficacy of the lithium salt of glyphosate over that of the lithium salt of glyphosate alone.
Abstract:
An herbicidal composition which comprises a mixture of an herbicide and a C 2 -C 5 mono- or dicarboxylic acid additive, and mixtures of additives thereof, wherein the composition is more effective in providing a faster-acting herbicidal effect than the herbicide alone is described. A method of controlling weed growth with the herbicidal composition is also described.

Abstract:
An herbicidal composition which comprises a mixture of an herbicide and a C 2 -C 5 mono- or dicarboxylic acid additive, and mixtures of additives thereof, wherein the composition is more effective in providing a faster-acting herbicidal effect than the herbicide alone is described. A method of controlling weed growth with the herbicidal composition is also described.
Abstract:
Compounds for controlling aquatic breeding insects including an ethoxylated alcohol with a carbon chain length of about 10 to about 24 carbon atoms and about 0 to about 16 moles of ethylene oxide per mole of alcohol, where the carbon chain is linear or branched with an alkyl group are provided. Methods for making branched alcohol ethoxylated compounds and linear secondary alcohol ethoxylated compounds are also provided. Methods for controlling insects with the compounds are also provided.
Abstract:
A pesticide composition containing: (a) a polyaliphatic amine and/or its derivative; and (b) a biologically active component selected from the group consisting of insecticides, insect repellents, fungicides, bactericides, bacteriostats, herbicides, plant growth regulators, and mixtures thereof.
Abstract:
