Combination of two or more active ingredients using microencapsulated formulations

Pesticidal formulations of cadusafos are provided. An aqueous capsule suspension is provided, containing from about 150 to about 360 grams of cadusafos per liter of formulation and having lower mammalian toxicity than aqueous cadusafos microemulsion formulations is prepared by interfacial polymerization of a first polyfunctional compound, such as a polymethylene polyphenyl isocyanate, with a second polyfunctional compound, such as a polyfunctional amine or mixtures of polyfunctional amines, in an aqueous phase optionally containing from about 0.05 to about 0.50 xanthan gum viscosity modifier/stabilizer. A granular form of the microencapsulated cadusafos is also provided. Several such formulations and the method of their preparation are described.

Microencapsulation formulations of cadusafos

The present invention provides herbicidal formulation that is composed of an aqueous liquid having suspended therein a multitude of microcapsules having a capsule wall of a porous polymer encapsulating a solution of clomazone, and suitable concentrations of fat in the absence of a resin, or a resin in the absence of a fat, or both fat and resin. Preferably, if included, the fat is at least 95% saturated.

Microencapsulated clomazone in the presence of fat and resin

The present invention provides an herbicidal formulation that is composed of an aqueous liquid having suspended therein a multitude of microcapsules having a capsule wall of a porous polymer encapsulating a solution of clomazone, and suitable concentrations of fat in the absence of a resin, or a resin in the absence of a fat, or both fat and resin. Preferably, if included, the fat is at least 95% saturated.
