Natural emulsifiers: learning from food and beverages

Industries involved in food, beverages and cosmetics and academia in these fields explore applications of natural emulsifiers. The developed expertise may be used as leads in the formulation of (bio)pesticides. Adjuvants & Formulations presents trends in the development and commercialization of natural emulsifiers (surfactants, polymers and particles).

Polymorphism plays major role in pesticide development

The solid-state properties of an active ingredient affect its bioavailability and stability. It also relates to the selection and/or development of an optimal formulation. Adjuvants & Formulations summarizes briefly the highlights of a review about the importance of chemical polymorphism in the formulation and development of commercial pesticides.

More news in this issue:

  • Review of ionic amphiphilic lignin applications
  • Study of the spontaneous nano-emulsification process
  • Chitosan-coated phytoglycogen for preparation of biocompatible Pickering emulsion
  • Nonionic surfactant mixtures and crop safety
  • Back to the future: fatty acids for soft materials

 

Patents in brief

Fatty acid herbicides perform significantly better when they are combined with cyclodextrin, or a cyclodextrin derivative. These cyclodextrins or derivatives can be added in a less than equimolar ratio to the fatty acid active ingredient, according to the German chemical company Wacker Chemie.

Adjuvants & Formulations also reports about activities of other companies as well as universities, such as:

  • Epyrifenacil-based herbicide compositions
  • In-situ polymerisation encapsulation of a.i. microparticles in aqueous suspension improves crop safety
  • Overview of recent patent publications with brief summary
