The invention relates to an aqueous agrochemical composition comprising a) suspended particles of an active ingredient; and b) ethoxylated ricinolein; wherein the active ingredient has a water-solubility of at least 1 g/l at 25° C.; and wherein the ethoxylated ricinolein contains 35 to 50 molecules of ethylene oxide per molecule of ricinolein in polymerized form. It also relates to a method of stabilizing an aqueous agrochemical composition comprising the suspended particles of the active ingredient; to uses and methods of application of the agrochemical composition; and to a method for preparing the agrochemical composition; and to plant propagation material comprising the agrochemical composition.

Stabilization of suspension concentrates by ethoxylated ricinolein

Agrochemical formulation, comprising afidopyropen, a cypermethrin like alpha-cypermethrin, a) at least one organic solvent S, b) at least one alkanol substituted amine D, c) at least one aryl sulfonic acid E or their salts, d) at least one organic tricarboxylic acid F or their salts, e) at least one nonionic surfactant G different from components c) to f) and h), f) optionally further components.

Agrochemical formulations

The invention relates to an agrochemical composition comprising propylene carbonate, up to 10 wt % of water, and compounds I their salts, tautomers, or enantiomers; wherein the variables are as defined in the description. The invention also relates to a process for the preparation of the composition, comprising mixing the propylene carbonate, compounds I, and optionally an acid and/or cyclohexanone. It also relates to a method for controlling pests, which method comprises the application of the composition, or a dilution thereof, to plants, plant propagation material, or the locus of growth of the plants; the pests or their food supply, habitat or breeding grounds. Other objects are the use of cyclohexanone and/or an acid, in particular acetic acid, for stabilizing compositions comprising compounds I; composition for stabilizing water-soluble pesticides as defined in any of claimsto, comprising 1 to 50 wt % of propylene carbonate, 0.1 to 30 wt % cyclohexanone, and an acid; and an aqueous tank-mix composition comprising the composition in a concentration of 0.01 wt % to 10 wt % with regard to the total weight of the tank-mix.

Stable formulation of pesticidal pyridazinpyrazolamides

The present invention relates to a method for producing an aqueous suspension concentrate formulation and novel suspension concentrate formulations of the compound of formula I. The method comprises the steps a) to d) as described hereinafter: a) providing an aqueous slurry of the compound of the formula I containing the compound of formula I in the form of coarse particles dispersed in a solution of the at least one surfactant in water; b) comminuting the coarse particles in the slurry of the compound of formula I to obtain an aqueous suspension of the compound of the formula I, wherein the particles of the compound of the formula I have an volume average particle size in the rage from 3 to 10 &#x3bc;m, as determined by light scattering; c) keeping the suspension of step b) at a temperature in the range of 20 to 95&#xb0; C., d) subjecting the suspension of step c) to a further comminution to obtain an aqueous suspension of the compound of the formula I, wherein the particles of the compound of the formula I have an volume average particle size of below 3 &#x3bc;m, as determined by light scattering.
