Abstract:
The present invention relates to novel active ingredient compositions for plant protection in the form of fine active ingredient-containing particles, comprising a) at least one active plant protection agent; b) at least one polymer P, which is not soluble in water, can be decomposed by enzymatic hydrolysis and is present in a quantity of at least 20% by weight, relative to the total amount of the components of the active ingredient-containing particles, and c) at least one hydrolase (EC 3), wherein at least 90% by weight of the active ingredient-containing particles of the active ingredient composition does not exceed a diameter of 500 µm (Dgo value), wherein the components a), b) and c) constitute at least 30% by weight of the active ingredient particles. The invention further relates to a method for the production thereof and to the use of the active ingredient compositions for the treatment of plants, soils and seed.
Abstract:
The present invention comprises formulations comprising at least one pesticide and at least one co-polymer comprising a) 1-vinyl-2-pyrrolidinone as comonomer a); and b) 60-99 wt% at least one comonomer b) chosen from the group of laurylacrylate and vinyl ester of neodecanoic acid in polymerized form, methods of combating harmful insects and/or phytopathogenic fungi, a method of controlling undesired vegetation and methods of improving the health of plants based on the afore-mentioned formulations.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to coated inert granules whose coating comprises at least one polymer, at least one agriculturally active ingredient and at least one dispersant. It also relates to a process for preparation of said granules comprising the steps (1) treating at least onepolymer, at least one agriculturally active ingredient and at least one dispersant with water, (2) treating inert granules with the aqueous composition of step (1), and (3) drying the composition of step (2). The present invention also relates to a method of combating harmful insects, phytopathogenic fungi and controlling undesired vegetation with said granules.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for the production of microcapsules that contain a capsule core containing an effective substance and a capsule shell containing a polymer, comprising the formation of the capsule shell by means of the enzyme-catalyzed polymerization of monomers that are present in an inverse mini-emulsion; and microcapsules and dispersions. The invention relates to the use of said microcapsules and dispersions containing microcapsules as components in dyes, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, phytosanitary agents, fertilizers, additives for foods or animal feeds, adjuvants for polymers, paper, textiles, leather, or detergents and cleaning agents.
Abstract:
Agrochemical composition comprising: a) a pesticide, b) a thickener T, c) a polymer P, said polymer P being a homo- or copolymer of (meth)acrylic acid with an average molecular mass Mw of at least 150,000 Da, said composition being a suspension concentrate (SC) composition. The use of the composition for controlling pests as well as a method of controlling phytopathogenic fungi and/or undesired plant growth and/or undesired insect or mite attack and/or for regulating the growth of plants using the composition.
Abstract:
The present invention comprises formulations comprising at least one pesticide and at least one co-polymer comprising (a) a N-vinylamid comonomer a) of formula (I) wherein R1 and R2 are independently of one another hydrogen or C1-C4 alkyl, preferably hydrogen or R1 and R2 represent together a —(CH2)x moiety, which forms together with the nitrogen and the carbonyl-moiety a 5-8 membered ring, and (b) at least one comonomer b) selected from the group consisting of vinylpyrridin, vinylpyrridin derivatives and N-vinlyimidazole in polymerized form, methods of combating harmful insects and/or phytopathogenic fungi, a method of controlling undesired vegetation and methods of improving the health of plants based on the afore-mentioned formulations.
