Pesticide compositions containing an adjuvant which contains, based on 100 parts by weight of the adjuvant, (a) greater than about 50 parts by weight of at least one alkyl fatty acid ester, (b) from about 2 parts by weight to less than about 5 parts by weight of a surfactant comprising: (b)(i) one or more anionic surfactants selected from sulfonic acids, sulfonic acid esters, alkylsulfosuccinic acid esters, phosphate esters, sulfate esters, and oleoyltaurate salts, or (b)(ii) one or more non-ionic surfactants selected from sorbitan fatty acid esters, aryl alkoxylates, alkoxylated fatty alcohols, alkoxylated fatty acids, alkoxylated triglycerides, alkoxy copolymers, alkylpolyglucosides, alkoxylated fatty amines, and ether amines, or (iii) a mixture (b)(i) and (b)(ii), exhibit improved performance, particularly when sprayed through a flat fan spray nozzle, an air induction spray nozzle, or other spray nozzle and at a pressure of from about 10 pounds per square inch to about 100 pounds per square inch.

Agricultural adjuvant compositions, pesticide compositions, and methods for using such compositions

Solvents useful with thiophosphoric triamide urease inhibitors, that provide stable solution of a thiophosphoric triamide, such as for distribution (in low or high concentrations) onto a fertilizer or other liquid or solid material that contains urea.

Solvent for thiophosphoric triamide or dicyandiamide solutions, and related methods

Solvent systems for the formulation of alkyl thiophosphoric triamide urease inhibitors, that provide stable dispersion of alkyl thiophosphoric triamides for even distribution (in low or high concentrations) onto fertilizers containing urea in liquid or solid form.

Solvent systems of N-alkyl thiophosphoric triamides and methods of use in agricultural applications

An adjuvant composition that contains, based on 100 parts by weight of the adjuvant composition (a) one or more betaine surfactant compounds, and (b) one or more surfactant compounds selected from, alkyl ether sulfates, sulfonates, sulfosuccinates, alkyl ether carboxylates, alkoxylated fatty acids, and alkoxylated alcohols is useful as a component of pesticide compositions.

Agricultural adjuvant compostions, pesticide compositions, and methods for using such compositions

An adjuvant composition contains an adjuvant composition, comprising, based on 100 parts by weight of the composition: (a) from about 10 to 100 parts by weight of a combined of one or more betaine surfactants and one or more glycoside surfactants, comprising, based on 100 parts by weight of the combined amount: (i) from greater than 0 to less than 100 parts by weight of the one or more betaine surfactants, and (ii) from greater than 0 to less than 100 parts by weight of one or more glycoside surfactants, and (b) from 0 to about 90 parts by weight water A pesticide composition contains based on 100 parts by weight of the composition: (a) from greater than 0 parts by weight to about 20 parts by weight of a combined amount of one or more betaine surfactants and one or more glycoside surfactants, comprising, based on 100 parts by weight of the combined amount: (i) from greater than 0 to less than 100 parts by weight of the one or more betaine surfactants, and (ii) from greater than 0 to less than 100 parts by weight of one or more glycoside surfactants, and (b) from 0 to about 90 parts by weight water, and (c) an effective amount of one or more pesticides. A method for controlling the growth of a target plant includes applying the pesticide composition to the target plant.

An adjuvant composition for use with a pesticide contains at least one surfactant compound selected from each of at least two of the following groups:(i) phosphate ester surfactants, (ii) alkylpolyglucoside surfactants, (iii) the group consisting of imidazoline-based amphoteric surfactants, sultaine surfactants, and aminopropionate surfactants, and (iv) the group consisting of sulfonate surfactants, sulfosuccinate surfactants, alkyl ether carboxylate surfactants, alkoxylated fatty acid surfactants, and alkoxylated alcohol surfactants. A pesticide composition contains the adjuvant composition and a pesticide is useful for treating plants.
