HS.SIL-1® Super-wetting additive
Performance enhancer for agricultural chemicals Pale yellow liquid
CAS No. 67674-67-3
FEATURES
• Nonionic
• Superspreader for soluble liquid and emulsable concentrate formulations
• Very low surface energy.
• Rapid spreading and wetting.
• Improve spray coverage
• Super spreading and penetrating of spray agricultural chemicals
• Promotes rapid uptake of agrochemicals(rain fastness) • Reduces the residues of pesticides
APPLICATION:
It is a type of low viscosity silicone polyether copolymer liquid used to enhance the performance of wetting, spreading and penetration of agricultural chemicals. It may be used as a formulation ingredient in water-soluble broadleaf herbicides and insecticides, fungicides and plant growth regulators, or as a tank-
mix adjuvant for foliar-applied chemicals.
HOW TO USE
HS.SIL Silicone Surfactant may be used as an ingredient in. formulations, provided all the ingredients are compatible.
HS.SIL Silicone Surfactant is stable in neutral aqueous formulations. (pH=6.5-7.5), but will degrade rapidly in acidic or alkaline formulations. New product formulations should be thoroughly tested for performance and shelf stability before entering market.
As an Agricultural Chemical Tank-Mix Adjuvant:
HS.SIL Silicone Surfactant may be added to tank-mixes to enhance. the biological performance of the spray solution.
