Oxiteno launched three new products to reinforce its agrochemicals portfolio

Oxiteno, leader in the development of high-performance adjuvants used in agricultural production, just launched three new products to reinforce its agrochemicals portfolio: a dispersant,Surfom WG 8168, and the emulsifying dispersants Ultraric PE 104 and105.

Ultraric PE 104 and 105 are surfactants that can be used as dispersants and emulsifiers in suspension concentrates and suspo-emulsions. They are non-ionic block copolymers with an excellent shelf-life, have a variety of uses and are compatible with a wide range of active ingredients.Compatible with non-ionic, cationic and anionic surfactants, they have excellent performance even when combined with high concentrations of active ingredients.

Surfom WG 8168 is a dispersant that also acts as a humectant. It is a viable solution for both solid formulations such as WG (water-dispersible granules), as well as liquids such as SC (suspension concentrates), and is ideal for the slurry preparation and extrusion phases during the formulation process. In addition, the adjuvant improves the spray tank mix since it ensures low foaming and excellent dispersibility of the granules when diluted in water.

These Oxiteno adjuvants have been designed to meet the current demands of farmers, who seek agricultural pesticides that can be applied efficiently and easily. This increases the amount of active ingredient reaching the target, reduces application costs and causes less environmental and toxicological risk.

For Alvim Jorge, Oxiteno’s Business Manager for Agrochemicals, these products complement the Company’s already robust portfolio, with solutions designed to meet all of the needs of agrochemicals companies and farmers. “Our challenge is in the continuous search for solutions that support the development of sustainable agriculture, with better productivity and less socio-environmental impact”, explains Alvim.

The Company’s portfolio contains numerous customized solutions, for clients located throughout the world, that work with emulsifiers, dispersants, humectants and tank mixes used in agricultural pesticides. Oxiteno develops innovative technologies designed to improve agricultural productivity per unit of planted area, reducing product dosages and energy consumption during preparation of the formulations, aligned with the requirements of the market and farmers.
