In the face of the growing population, declining land, rising food demand and increasingly severe environmental requirements, people need to develop more efficient and safe pesticides. However, new pesticides have a long development cycle, need huge investments, have high risks, and low success rates, especially for modern and super efficient pesticide varieties. With the rapid development of pesticide synergists, many new dosage forms have emerged, as required by the times. In traditional pesticide spraying, only 20-30% of the chemical solution can be stored on the leaves of crops, and 70-80% of the pesticide is lost to the soil and the environment, which not only increases the pesticide residue, but also pollutes the environment and leads to the wastage of water. As a result, scientists are trying to find a more efficient adjuvant that can keep more of the spray solution on the leaves and also spread rapidly. Then, only a small amount of the spray can be used to make the pesticide more quickly and effectively make contact with the invading enemies. After unremitting efforts and experiments, in the 1980s, scientists finally developed the agricultural silicone surfactant.
What exactly is organosilicone for agriculture?
The agricultural silicone surfactant is also called synergist, pesticide adjuvant, organosilicon etc. It is ethoxylated polytrisiloxane, and it is a light yellow transparent liquid. It can be widely used in spraying agricultural chemicals such as pesticides, fungicides, herbicides, foliar fertilizers, plant growth regulators and biological pesticides etc, to achieve efficiency, savings in water usage, labor and pesticides, and reduce pesticide losses and pesticide residue.
Industry leader
Runhe, a professional manufacturer of silicone products, was established in 2000 and has a 20-yearlong history. It is one of the leading silicone listed enterprises in China. It is focused on scientific and technological innovation, committed to the development and production of agricultural silicone surfactant and its core raw materials. Runhe helps farmers around the world increase crop production and reduce production costs.
High efficient wetting, green organosilicone
Characteristics of agricultural silicone surfactant
1.Super spreading, penetrating and sticking ability.
2.It has a strong vertical penetration and a horizontal spreading property, which can penetrate the plant leaves rapidly.
3.Reduces the surface tension quickly and rainfastness
4.Improves the pesticide-applying efficiency, reduces the amount of pesticides, spray amount, pesticide residues, and saves water.
