Croda has offered first insights into the speciality chemical company’s new low speed wind tunnel for agricultural spray analysis. The facility, which is currently being installed at Croda’s North American site in New Castle, Delaware, will be a core enabler in the company’s spray drift research platform.
 
Last week, delegates at Croda’s technical seminar in North Carolina participated in a morning master class focused on the challenges associated with off target movement. Dr. Greg Kruger, Assistant Professor at the University of Nebraska opened the session by introducing current practice and developments in characterization of agricultural spray drift. The Croda team then introduced the measurement capability that the organization will have, based on a bespoke design endorsed by leading third party researchers and design partners, and a comprehensive validation program.
 
Greg Lindner, Research Director at Croda, said “Our low speed wind tunnel gives us the testing capability to characterize agricultural spray quality according to established industry protocol as well as other techniques. This capability will enable us to conduct research into the mechanisms of drift reduction to minimize off-target movement and develop reliable spray drift reduction technologies relevant to our customers’ needs.”
