Abstract:
An agricultural formulation includes a copolymer including (i) 20 wt% to 50 wt% monomeric structural units derived from a first acrylic monomer with a log Kow of 1.0 or less based on a total weight of the copolymer and (ii) from 50 wt% to 80 wt% of monomeric structural units derived from a second acrylic monomer with a log Kow of from 2.0 to 6.0 based on a total weight of the copolymer. The agricultural formulation also includes an active ingredient with a log Kow of greater than 1.0.

Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a method of promoting optimal stretching of stretch film during a wrapping operation, which method comprises at least the following steps. First a resin suitable for making stretch films is selected. Then a dispersed agent is selected, preferably one which has a refractive index similar to the selected resin such that when a film is made comprising the resin and the dispersed agent, the film will appear somewhat clear. The dispersed agent is then mixed with the resin and a film is formed from the resin containing the dispersed agent. Finally, a load is manually wrapped using such film, wherein during wrapping, the film is stretched to a level where the film becomes more opaque.
