Principle and Application of Organosilicon Surfactant As Pesticide Assistant

Mar 6, 2023

Agricultural silicone surfactants mainly include agricultural formula additives and spray additives, of which the largest amount is silicone spray additives, whose main components are ethoxy modified trisiloxane compounds. Since the 1980s, with the development of polyurethane industry, organic silicone surfactants have achieved comprehensive and rapid development, and have been widely used in textiles, cosmetics, plastics, coatings, agricultural chemicals, medicine, In recent years, as an excellent lubricant, organosilicon surfactant has extremely low physiological toxicity, high temperature resistance, microbial resistance and other properties, which has brought fundamental changes to the formulation and application technology of pesticides.

The application of organosilicon surfactants has brought fundamental changes to the formulation and application technology of pesticides. The leaves, stems and insect epidermis of plants often have anti-wetting components or structures, and the leaves often have negative charges. It has a repulsive effect on pesticide liquid, while the addition of organosilicon surfactants can promote the smooth attachment, retention, wetting, spreading and penetration of pesticide preparations on the target, It plays a key role in improving the efficacy of the drug. In addition, stomata is one of the main ways for the drug to enter the plant body. The organosilicon surfactant can make the surface tension of the drug liquid lower than the critical wetting point of the plant leaf surface (about 25 mN/m), so it can promote the drug liquid to penetrate into the epidermis from the stomata.

The processing of pesticide preparations cannot be separated from surfactants. Different types of surfactants should be added to the processing of pesticides (including: emulsifiable oil, water emulsion, microemulsion, wet powder, soluble powder, dispersible granules, granules, etc.). The addition of surfactants greatly reduces the surface tension of the solution, enhances the wetting, display and adhesion of plant or pest surface agents, and thus improves the curative effect.

Our agricultural silicone surfactant is an innovative product with strong non-foaming and anti-adhesion properties. It can effectively penetrate and spread to plants, providing an initial silicon protective layer to better protect plants from insects, pests and diseases.
