Appearance: Normally white to light yellow powder with uniform particle size and no obvious agglomeration. Slight color difference may exist between different batches, which does not affect performance.
Key Physicochemical Indicators:
Solubility: Easily soluble in water to form a uniform and transparent liquid; insoluble in aromatic solvents such as benzene and toluene.
pH Value (1% aqueous solution): 7.0-9.0 (weakly neutral), suitable for most neutral, weakly acidic, and weakly alkaline formula systems.
Moisture Content: ≤8%, which can prevent formula moisture absorption and agglomeration caused by excessive moisture, improving storage stability.
2. Core Performance Characteristics
Dispersion and Stability: It can effectively reduce the surface tension of solid particles such as pesticides, prevent particle agglomeration, and improve the uniformity of suspension systems. The formula suspension rate can reach over 90%, ensuring the uniform release of active ingredients during use.
Compatibility Advantage: It has good compatibility with most pesticide technical materials (such as herbicides, fungicides) and auxiliary materials (such as fillers, binders). It can be adapted without additional formula adjustments, reducing R&D costs.
Core Advantage of Cost-Effectiveness: On the premise of meeting the standards for dispersion and stability performance, its raw material cost is 10%-15% lower than that of similar polycarboxylate dispersants. Moreover, its low addition amount can further control the overall formula cost.
3. Application Scenarios and Parameters
Main Application Field: Pesticide industry, focusing on two formulations: Water-Dispersible Granules (WDG) and Suspension Concentrates (SC), especially suitable for WDG formulas with medium and low concentrations of active ingredients.
Recommended Dosage:
In pesticide WDG formulas with 50%-70% content, the dosage is 2.5%-4%.
In Suspension Concentrate (SC) formulas, the dosage is 1.5%-3% (specific dosage needs to be adjusted according to the characteristics of the technical material).
Typical Application Cases: It can be used in common pesticide formulas such as Atrazine WDG and Imidacloprid SC, effectively improving the product's disintegration speed (WDG formulation disintegration time ≤30 seconds) and suspension stability.
4. Manufacturer and Quality Assurance
Manufacturer: Solvay. As a well-known global enterprise in the chemical additive field, its production process complies with the ISO 9001 quality system standard. Each batch of products undergoes strict performance testing (such as dispersion efficiency and suspension rate testing) to ensure consistent quality.
Storage Requirements: It should be stored in a cool and dry place (temperature 5-30℃, relative humidity ≤60%) in a sealed manner. The shelf life is 24 months. Avoid direct sunlight and high-temperature, high-humidity environments to prevent performance degradation.
