Why use silicone additives in pesticides?

Hits: 667 img

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 atmospheric environment, which not only increases the residue of the drug, but also pollutes the environment and wastes water. Resources. As a result, scientists are trying to find a more efficient additive that can keep more of the medicinal solution on the leaves and spread rapidly. Then, only a small amount of spray can be used to make the pesticide more quickly and effectively contacted. Invading enemies. After unremitting efforts and experiments, scientists have finally developed agricultural silicone additives, which have the following effects:

1. Wetting crops quickly, greatly improving the efficacy

Specifically, it can be reflected in the following examples: Rice leaf roller, is a rice pest. In order to escape the pesticide spray, this guy painstakingly spit out silk threads and carefully woven a security fortress for himself. The silk thread was like a button, and the leaves were folded and rolled up, and the rice leaf curler was hiding in this fort. Then, from the inside to the outside, I sucked the juice of the leaves with a big mouth. I didn't expect that I was so hard-working but easily removed by the all-pervasive magical silicone additives. The medicinal solution spread quickly, drilled into the gap and entered the fortress. Longitudinal curl leaves a maggot to catch a maggot.

In the field, 48% dichlorvos EC is used to prevent rice leaf rollers, and the water consumption per mu is more than 45 kg. Adding 0.05% of organosilicon additives to the medicinal solution and using only 15 kg of water per acre can achieve the ideal insecticidal effect and liquid retention effect. This saves both water resources and workload.

Therefore, farmers' friends must remember that after adding the silicone additive, it is not necessary to spray repeatedly as before, otherwise it will be counterproductive and waste manpower and resources.

2. Super strong penetration, make the drug reach the target quickly.

In nature, many plant leaves have a thick layer of waxy substance, and the medicinal solution is difficult to adhere to it. The special structure of some leaves, such as lotus leaves and taro, makes it almost impossible for water to stay. Pests often try their best to avoid hunting. Look, this cabbage has not suffered any damage on the surface, but when you open the leaf and look at it, it has been eaten by the diamondback moth. The sly diamondback moth ate the vegetable leaf with a big mouth, but instead of biting it, it left a thin layer of skin, like a safe protective umbrella, protecting them underneath. So, is there any trick to deal with the waxy layer on the leaves? Encouraging things happened again. No water droplets are formed on the leaves, and the silicone has super spreading properties, so that the medicinal solution can also expand freely on the waxy leaves. See, none of these diamondback moths that are eating the leaves has survived.

Field experiments show that the addition of 0.03% to 0.05% (2000-3000 times) of silicone additives to the pesticides against diamondback moth can not only reduce the amount of spray, but also reduce the amount of pesticides when the control effect is comparable. This effectively reduces pesticide residues in vegetables. Silicone additives can also promote the rapid absorption of pesticides through the stomata on plant leaves. We used water to simulate rainwater scouring. The chemicals added with the silicone additive on the left have partially entered the leaves, while the ordinary chemicals on the right that failed to enter the leaves were quickly washed away. It has been found that the addition of silicone additives can improve the reliability of using systemic agents. Reduce losses from repeated sprays during the rainy season. This permeability of silicone can also be used to deal with pests that have a waxy layer and are not easily wetted by the liquid medicine.

In fact, the role of organic silicon is far more than just being used. It can be used as an efficient auxiliary, which is widely used in agricultural applications such as pesticides, fungicides, herbicides, foliar fertilizers, plant growth regulators, trace elements and biological pesticides Spray of chemicals. To achieve efficiency, water, labor, medicine, reduce pesticide loss, reduce pesticide residues.
