Searching for adjuvants and formulations that reduce pesticide volatilisation
Considering
physical chemical properties of active ingredients and formulation
components/adjuvants is quite helpful for the design of volatility
reducing formulations and adjuvants. Adjuvants & Formulations shares recent efforts to address this approach.

Deep eutectic solvents can provide more than true solutions
Deep
eutectic solvents (DES) can fully dissolve substances, but researchers
found that a DES can also result in a polydisperse colloidal system with
superior physical and chemical stability. Adjuvants & Formulations summarizes briefly the results of this study.
More news in this issue:
- A general supramolecular adjuvant for pesticides
- Nanocarriers based on polysaccharides and bovine serum albumin
- Plant and insect virus-like particles as delivery vehicles
- Adjuvants improve efficacy of water-based d-phenothrin formulations against Aedes aegypti

Patents in brief
Chinese inventors have prepared an imidacloprid formulation that contains 24-epibrassinolide to accelerate the in planta
degradation after this active ingredient has done its work. The
formulation is a composite nanoparticle that comprises as core material
imidacloprid and the 24-epibrassinolide. The wall material provides for a
sequential release of both compounds.
Adjuvants & Formulations also reports about activities of other companies as well as universities, such as:
- Granule formulation showing sustained release of active ingredient into water
- Organic acids to improve chemical stability of florylpicoxamid in EC and OD formulations
- New cyclobutrifluram seed treatment formulations
- Overview of recent patent publications with brief summary
