Interest in super absorbents for (bio)pesticides is growing
Application
of super absorbents with (bio)pesticides may deliver benefits like
better performance and reduced leaching to the deeper soil layers. Apart
of developing general scientific principles and the transition to
biopolymer-based products there seems to be a great need for tailor-made
solutions and guidelines. Adjuvants & Formulations provides an update that may stimulate to go further on the discussed items. | |

News in brief
Chitosan
and high molecular weight polyacrylamide can be used to suppress the
coffee-ring effect. Relatively low molecular weight polyacrylamide,
however, does not reduce the extent of ring formation. Adjuvants & Formulations presents the major findings of two studies into possible solutions to reduce the coffee ring effect. Photograph: SURfaPLUS

Patents in brief
Soybean
is naturally sensitive to dicamba. Researchers are investigating why
some amine salts significantly reduce the volatilisation potential of
this auxinic herbicide and which amine chemistry can further reduce the
volatilisation potential.
Adjuvants & Formulations also reports about activities of other companies as well as universities, such as:
- Shear-stable spray drift control composition
- Specific combinations of glyphosate salts and specific surfactants
- Solvent system for EC formulations to produce very small emulsified oil droplets
- Use of tetraconazole as oil dispersion phase for second fungicide
- Anti-foaming agent for clear compositions of water-insoluble or poorly water-soluble active ingredients
- Suspension concentrate of slow-release polymer/pesticide particles
- Film forming agent for seed coating compositions
- Overview of recent patent publications with brief summary
