AGROCHEMICAL DELIVERY SYSTEM BASED ON ENZYME- OR pH- RESPONSIVE AMPHIPHILIC PEG-DENDRON HYBRIDS

The present invention relates to an amphiphilic hybrid delivery system in micellar form for delivery of agrochemicals, based on a hydrophilic polyethylene glycol (PEG) polymer conjugated to a hydrophobic dendron, the dendron comprising at least one pH-dependent or enzymatically cleavable hydrophobic end group that is covalently attached to the dendron, wherein the micelle disassembles upon enzymatic or pH-dependent cleavage of the hydrophobic end group. The hydrophobic end group that is conjugated to the dendron may comprise an agrochemical, and/or the micelle may (non-covalently) encapsulate an agrochemical. The present invention further provides methods of use thereof and to a kit comprising same.

Auxin herbicidal mixtures
09743662 · 2017-08-29 · ·

Herbicidal mixtures comprising an auxin herbicide and an adjuvant comprising a salt having a quaternary ammonium cation and/or a phosphonium cation are described. The adjuvant reduces the volatility of the auxin herbicide and/or counteracts the negative impact on the volatility of the auxin herbicide caused by the addition of a co-herbicide. Methods of preparing the herbicidal mixtures are also described.

HIGH-STRENGTH, HERBICIDAL COMPOSITIONS OF GLYPHOSATE AND 2,4-D SALTS

The mixture of certain amine salts of glyphosate and 2,4-D allows the preparation of high-strength liquid compositions containing up to greater than 450 gae/L of total active ingredient loading if the pH is adjusted to about 6.0 to about 8.0. Compositions are particularly well-suited for application to crops that are resistant or tolerant to both glyphosate and 2,4-D.
