The invention relates to process for coating a solid, water-insoluble particulate matter, with a metal oxide comprising: (a) contacting the solid water-insoluble particulate matter with a cationic additive in an aqueous medium to obtain a dispersion of said particulate matter having a positive zeta potential; (b) coating the solid water-insoluble particulate matter by precipitation of a metal oxide salt onto the surface of the particulate matter, forming a metal oxide layer thereon; and (c) aging said coating layer. The invention further relates to coated particulate matter obtained by the process and to compositions comprising solid, water-insoluble particulate matter, coated by a metal oxide layer, the particulate matter being a dermatological active agent or a pesticide. The invention additionally relates to methods of treating a surface condition in a subject using compositions comprising solid, water insoluble dermatologically active agent, coated by a metal oxide layer.

A fungicidal composition having a synergistic effect is provided. The composition includes active ingredients A and B. The active ingredient A is polyhexamethylene biguanide or an agriculturally acceptable salt thereof, the active ingredient B is one selected from cyprodinil, epoxiconazole, benthiavalicarb-isopropyl, zoxamide, azoxystrobin, prothioconazole, difenoconazole, fenamidone, polyoxin, iprodione, acibenzolar, dithianon, pyraclostrobin, trifloxystrobin, picoxystrobin, fluazinam, thifluzamide or dimethomorph, and the weight ratio of the two ingredients is from 1:50 to 50:1. The test results show that the fungicidal composition according to the present invention has an obvious synergistic effect, and importantly, the application rate is reduced, such that the cost is lowered. The application rate of a single agent alone is effectively reduced by combining the fungicides of different mechanisms and modes of action, which is beneficial for broadening the fungicidal spectrum, retarding the resistance development of the fungi and improving the control effect.
