Dispersing agents are crucial for plant treatment and protection by offering a range of benefits that enhance the efficacy and performance of agricultural formulations. These additives help ensure uniform dispersion of active ingredients, optimise coverage on plant surfaces, and improve overall effectiveness in pest management and disease control.
One significant benefit of dispersing agents is their ability to lower the viscosity of particulate slurries, making them easier to handle and apply. By reducing the viscosity, dispersing agents improve the flow properties of agricultural formulations, allowing for more precise and uniform application on crops. This results in better coverage and distribution of active ingredients, leading to improved pest control and disease prevention.
Dispersing agents also inhibit the settling of particulate solids, ensuring that active ingredients remain evenly suspended in solution. This prevents sedimentation and clogging in spray equipment, reducing the need for maintenance and downtime during application. These also maintain stability in formulations, to prolong the shelf life of agricultural products, preserving their effectiveness over time.
Dispersing agents also help enhance the efficacy of plant protection products by preventing agglomeration and promoting even dispersion of active ingredients on plant surfaces. This ensures maximum contact between pests or pathogens and the treatment, increasing the likelihood of successful pest control and disease management. As a result, dispersing agents contribute to improved crop health and yield, ultimately enhancing the profitability and sustainability of agricultural operations.
In summary, dispersing agents are essential additives in plant treatment and protection, offering a range of benefits that optimize the performance and effectiveness of agricultural formulations. From improving flow properties and preventing sedimentation to enhancing coverage and efficacy on plant surfaces, dispersing agents play a critical role in modern agriculture, ensuring the success and sustainability of crop production systems.
Product and customer insights
Despite numerous cleanings, the productivity of the Reverse Osmosis plant would not recover from severe membrane fouling. The membrane autopsy revealed that the ferric hydroxide was seeding
silica polymerization and that even while the ferric hydroxide was removed, the silica scaling was continuing to grow.
The plant was experiencing weekly shutdowns for fiber clean up (~ 3 kg bags of matted slurry is cleaned per week). The shut downs were costly as they reduce plant availability for production.
The International Maritime Organisation (IMO) regulation, known as IMO 2020 was the the largest change in regulation relating to marine fuels impacting 75% of the fuel used by the shipping industry.
Keeping drilling costs low using Redi-Guard™ High Performance, an ecologically friendly drilling fluid technology with revolutionary rheological and shale encapsulation properties
AWC A-110 effectively inhibited scale at a dosage of 3.5 ppm and an operating pH of 6.9. This increase in operating pH reduced the district’s annual acid consumption by ~$350K per year based on their current production.
Research indicates that Sea Buckthorn may be able to strengthen the immune system. One in vitro study focused on the possible immunomodulatory properties of Sea Buckthorn.
MCI® -2020 V/O and ChemMaster’s Colorsil were chosen to repair and protect the walls based on their 20 year warranties and the fact that together they could fulfill the other specified repair design requirements.
The East Hokkaido region is known to have the highest volume of potato product in Japan. Unfortunately, a potato farmer in the area was experiencing a high rate of potato scab infection in his agricultural field.
