Agricultural Silicone Surfactant LA-13 is insoluble in water, compatible with most organic oils such as ethanol and toluene, and is an oil-soluble extender.
LA-13 oil-soluble extender is widely used in pesticide formulations, which can increase the compatibility of oily components, and its super-diffusion ability can increase the utilization of pesticides by leaves.
Oil-based extender, excellent spreadability;
Low viscosity, low surface tension;
Good solubilizer for silicone oil and hydrocarbon oil;
Increase the wetting rate and spreading area of pesticides on the leaves, and promote the absorption of pesticides.
Based on formula addition, the recommended concentration is 0.1~10%; based on tank mix spray addition, the dosage is 0.01~5%. Addition of 5% oil-soluble additives or mineral oil or methyl oleate can significantly increase coverage.
