Applications of Silicone Surfactant
Silicone Surfactant is a type of lowviscosity silicone polyether copolymer liquid used to enhance the performanceof wetting, spreading and penetration of agricultural chemicals. SiliconeSurfactant may be used as a formulation ingredient in water-soluble broadleafherbicides and insecticides, fungicides and plant growth regulators, or as atank-mix adjuvant for foliar-applied chemicals. Silicone Surfactant can add tothe biological pesticide spray mixture liquid such as pesticide, bactericide,herbicide, foliar fertilizer, plant growth regulator, etc, especially appliedfor systemic pharmacy.
