Innovative uses for good-old alginate
Formulators
use alginate as a source for micro- and nanostructures in agrochemical
compositions. With this well-known inert ingredient they prepare
controlled-release formulations and improve the environmental profile of
pesticides. Adjuvant Newsletter presents a dip into the increasing
number of interesting papers covering novel uses of good-old alginate.

Patents in brief
Amorphous actives are more soluble than their crystalline counterparts. With this property in mind, chemists have developed amorphous ionic liquid compositions comprising metal chloride pharmaceuticals. Furthermore, they apply this novel approach to agrochemical active ingredients.
Other patent applications in this issue of the Adjuvant Newsletter cover tank-mix adjuvants for use with hard water, drift control agents for auxinic herbicides, cleaver control in brassica and new avermectin formulations for trunk injection.
