Developed using proprietary, patented technology, easy-wet™ 300n is highly effective in helping farmers control drift and improve pesticide adhesion and delivery.
Easy-wet™ 300n is a biodegradable, nonionic wetting agent designed for a wide range of crops, including corn, soy, wheat, watermelon, and florals.
natrosol™ hec Natrosol™ hydroxyethylcellulose is a free-flowing powder which provides rheological control and lubricity properties. It is easily dissolved in cold or hot water, resulting in clear solutions. Natrosol™ hec is soluble in glycerol, but insoluble in many organic solvents. It also has good solubility in hydro-alcohol systems with up to 60 percent alcohol. klucel™ modified cellulose Klucel™ modified c...
Agrimer™ AT polymer is a cross-linked polyvinylpyrrolidone polymer that absorbs and swells with water / solvent, but is insoluble in aqueous and organic media. Agrimer™ AT polymer has high capillary hydration capacity that provides for high efficiency disintegration in tablets and granules. Agrimer™ ATF polymer is a finer particle size version of Agrimer™ AT polymer.
agrimer™ AT and ATF cross-linked polyvinylpyrrolidone polymers
Easy-sperse™ p-20 dispersant is based on a polymeric technology for improving the suspension stability of crop care formulations. Easy-sperse™ p-20 dispersant features a synergistic composite of PVP (polyvinyl pyrrolidone) and MVE-MAHE (Methyl Vinyl Ether/Maleic Acid Half Ester Neutralized) copolymer that, together, lend super stabilizing effects to hydrophobic agrochemical actives. This EPA- TSCA-exempt polymer serves as an excellent...
Sterin™ insect irradiation indicators are for use with the Sterile Insect Technique (SIT). Sterin™ indicators provide positive visual verification that insects have been irradiated to the specified minimum dosage. Ashland possesses more than a quarter century of expertise in irradiation indicators. When attached to containers containing insects, Sterin™ irradiation indicators display whether the insects have been irradiate...
AgsolEx™ 8 specialty surfactants water-insoluble surface active solvent ideal for liquid formulations; improves wetting, penetration of AI through the cuticle and inhibits crystal formation. AgsolEx™ 8 and agsolEx™ 12 specialty surfactants have a unique combination of solvency and surface activity. AgsolEx™ 12 specialty surfactants is more hydrophobic and surface active than agsolEx™ 8 specialty surfactants. &...
agrimer™ va copolymers series include linear random copolymers that form hard, glossy, thermoplastic films. The films are oxygen permeable with good water holding properties, appropriate for seed coatings and leaf adhesion. Agrimer™ va copolymers have good adhesive, cohesive, and binding properties for several substrates and a host of active ingredients. Can be used as a co-dispersant in enhancing solubility/dispersibility of complex ...
Agrimer™ pvp products are linear, non-ionic polymers that are soluble in water and many organic solvents. They are pH stable, and have adhesive, cohesive and binding properties. The unique ability to adsorb on a host of active ingredients makes agrimer™ pvp homopolymers preferred co-dispersants in many formulations. Agrimer™ homopolymers have a high glass transition temperature. Lower molecular weight (Mw) agrimer™ polymer...
Easy-wet™ 20 wetting agent helps improve the surface coverage of aqueous agrochemical formulations. Formulated from EPA-approved nonfood use inerts, easy-wet™ 20 wetting agent reduces the surface tension and contact angle of common agrochemical formulations efficiently, providing best-in-class wetting and spreading performance. benefits excellent wetting and spreading ultra low use level used as tank mix adjuvant or as coformulant cl...
inherently biodegradable wetting agent to control drift and magnify your yield easy-wet ™ 300n is a unique solution for crop care This biodegradable, nonionic, silicone-free wetting agent, easy-wet™ 300n sets a new standard in crop care, offering superior wettability at lower concentrations, reduced spray drift, and enhanced coverage of active ingredients across leaf surfaces. Developed using proprietary, patented technologies, ...
