Formulating with deep eutectic solvents
Deep
eutectic solvents are attracting more attention. These eutectic
systems, also-called designer solvents, are aimed to replace volatile
organic solvents. Deep eutectic solvents are also used to improve the
performance of pharmaceutical active ingredients. Adjuvants & Formulations explored the state-of-the-art of these ‘green solvents’ in agrochemical formulations. | |

Effect of 2,4-D formulation on volatility under field conditions
Dicamba
is more volatile than 2,4-D and there is no difference in vapour
emissions between the amine and choline salts of 2,4-D under field
conditions. That is the take-home message of a study that is briefly
summarized in Adjuvants & Formulations.
