2025-02-18    69

Description

PTS-8408 is a highly active special silicone surfactant. This product has low surface tension, excellent wetting, spreading, permeability and emulsification and dispersibility, and is a new type of highly efficient pesticide adjuvant. It can be quickly and easily dissolved or dispersed in water.

Chemical name: Polyalkyleneoxide Modified Trisiloxane

Cas No: 67674-67-3

Equivalent Product: Momentive Spreader and Penetrant 408

Application

This product can be used as a spray modifier, leaf penetration and absorption aid, extender, etc. It is widely used in herbicides, foliar fertilizers, growth regulators, insecticides, and fungicides. It does not decompose the original drug, can greatly reduce the surface tension of the solution, reduce the contact angle between the droplets and the leaf surface, and enhance the wetting, penetration, adhesion and expansion ability of the drug solution on the plant leaves or the surface of the pest, which obviously improves the efficacy of the drug, reduces the amount of drug solution sprayed, reduces the number of spraying times, saves water, reduces pesticide pollution, and promotes environmental protection.

 

Dosage

Directly add to the pesticide formulation or use as a tank mix adjuvant for immediate mixing. When used as an immediate mix, the dosage is between 0.02 and 0.04% (i.e., add 3 to 6 grams of PTS-8408 to a 15 kg sprayer). In the pesticide formulation, the dosage is between 0.5 and 5%.

 

Precautions

Due to the extremely low surface tension of silicone surfactants, eyes should be protected when using PTS-8408, and personal protection should be strengthened during spraying operations.

 

Packaging, storage and safety

25kg/200kg/1000kg plastic barrels. Store and transport as non-hazardous goods, sealed at 5-30℃.

Avoid high temperatures and contact with acidic and alkaline substances during transportation and storage. The shelf life is 3 years.
