Further the present invention provides a method for potentiating the efficacy of the pesticidal active ingredient comprising using a compound represented by chemical formula (I) or chemical formula (II) in combination with a pesticidal active ingredient.

Pesticide composition potentiated in efficacy and method for potentiating efficacy of pesticidal active ingredients

A composition for preparing an emulsion or microemulsion, the composition including the following components (A) to (D):

Composition for preparing emulsion or microemulsion

Provided is a pest control agent in the form of a suspension, which exhibits excellent dispersion stability for a long time without forming a hard cake due to settling and separation of solid particles or without losing fluidity due to gelation even when a cationic pest control active ingredient and/or an acid is used. Specifically provided is a pest control agent in the form of a suspension, which contains (a) a cationic pest control active ingredient and/or an acid, (b) a nonionic thickening agent, (c) a nonionic surface active agent, (d) a solid active ingredient and (e) water.

Pest control agent in form of stable suspension

A liquid composition comprising (a) 21 to 70 parts by weight of a solvent having no nitrogen atom and having a carbonyl or sulfonyl group in the molecule, (b) 30 to 78.9 parts by weight of at least one component selected from the group consisting of a non-cyclic alcohol, an alkylene glycol, a polyalkylene glycol, a triol, a glycol monoacetate and a glycol monoalkyl ether, (c) 0.001 to 30 parts by weight of a physiologically active ingredient, and (d) 0.001 to 49 parts by weight of water.

Liquid composition, process for producing the liquid composition, and ectoparasite controlling agent for use in mammals and avians

This invention provides an emulsifiable concentrate composition, containing a component (A) which is at least one selected from the group consisting of alkanol having 6 to 20 carbon atoms, alkenol having 6 to 20 carbons, polyoxyethylene alkyl ester, polyoxyethylene alkyl diester, polyoxyethylene alkenyl ester, polyoxyethylene dialkenyl ester, polyoxyethylene&#x2022;polyoxypropylene&#x2022;block copolymer and a silicon-based surfactant, a component (B) which is at least one polyoxyalkylene aryl phenyl ether, and a component (C) which is an aromatic hydrocarbon-based nonpolar solvent, wherein the emulsifiable concentrate composition contains neither anionic surfactant nor cationic surfactant, and an agrochemical emulsifiable concentrate composition using the emulsifiable concentrate composition.

Emulsion composition and agrochemical emulsion composition

An agrochemical composition is provided in which an agrochemically active ingredient having 4 or more fluorine atoms in a molecule and having a Log P value of 3 or more is contained, and superior disintegration dispersibility is exhibited, and which is suitable for a water dispersible granule or a suspension concentrate. An agrochemical composition is characterized by containing (a1) an agrochemically active ingredient having 4 or more fluorine atoms in a molecule and having a Log P value of 3 or more, or (a2) an agrochemically active ingredient for which, in a fluidity test of a mixture composed of 50 parts by weight of the agrochemically active ingredient, 2 parts by weight of sorbitan monooleate and 48 parts by weight of water, the time for moving 85 mm is not less than 90 seconds, in an amount ranging from 0.1 to 70% by weight of the total amount of the composition, and (b) a wetting agent such as an alkylsulfate salt, in an amount ranging from 0.1 to 10% by weight of the total amount of the composition.

Agrochemical composition

The present invention provides a granulated pesticidal composition comprising a pesticidal active ingredient, a lignosulfonate surfactant with a degree of sulfonation of at least 2.0, and a sulfate or phosphate salt of a polyoxyalkylene arylphenyl ether. The composition is highly dispersible in water and allows stable long-term maintenance of its properties observed immediately after preparation.
