Glyphosate formulations containing amidoalkylamine surfactants

An herbicidal composition comprising (a) glyphosate or a derivative thereof, (b) an amidoalkylamine surfactants having the general structure: wherein Ris a hydrocarbyl having from about 1 carbon atoms to about 22 carbon atoms, and R, R, and Rare each independently hydrocarbyl having from about 1 carbon atom to about 6 carbon atoms; and (c) at least one co-surfactant.

Disclosed are thickened organic liquid compositions comprising an organic liquid and a polymeric rheology modifier wherein the polymeric rheology modifier is obtainable by co-polymerizing at least two of a bicyclic (meth)acrylate ester, an alkyl (meth)acrylate, and an aromatic vinyl monomer. Also disclosed are thickened organic liquid dispersions with suspended solids and methods of stabilizing dispersions using polymeric rheology modifiers.

Thickened organic liquid compositions with polymeric rheology modifiers

An herbicidal composition comprising (a) glyphosate or a derivative thereof, (b) an amidoalkylamine surfactant of formula (1): wherein Ris a hydrocarbyl having from about 1 carbon atoms to about 22 carbon atoms, Rand Rare each independently hydrocarbyl or substituted hydrocarbyl having from 1 to about 6 carbon atoms and Ris hydrocarbylene or substituted hydrocarbylene having from 1 to about 6 carbon atoms and (c) a co-surfactant component comprising at least one co-surfactant selected from, for example, alkoxylated tertiary amine oxides, amidoamine alkoxylates, and betaines. 

The present invention relates to an aqueous agrochemical spray solution containing an agrochemical active and a surfactant. The spray solution comprises a dispersed phase comprising dispersed particles which have an average particle size between 1 to 100 microns and the concentration of said dispersed particles is from about 0.001 to 5 wt %. The aqueous agrochemical spray solution is capable of reducing the volume of the fine droplets in mist whose size is less than 150 microns during spraying by at least 20% compared to the same aqueous spray solution without the presence of the surfactant. The present invention also relates to a method of reducing the spray drift of an aqueous agrochemical spray solution upon spraying with a spraying apparatus. The method includes adding the surfactant to the aqueous agrochemical spray solution in an amount effective to form the dispersed phase.

Macrostructure forming surfactants useful as spray drift control agents in pesticide spraying applications

The present invention comprises formulations for agricultural use comprising a surfactant and pesticide. The surfactants comprise nitrogen containing surfactants with N&#x2014;CHCOO, N&#x2014;CHCOOCH, N&#x2014;CHCOOM, N&#x2014;CHCHCOOM, and/or amine oxide functionalities which enhance the pesticide activity. The pesticides include herbicides, fungicides and insecticides.

Nitrogen containing surfactants for agricultural use

The present invention is directed to a nitrogen containing surfactant composition comprising at least one nitrogen containing surfactant of structure (h) or structure (i). The nitrogen containing surfactant of structure (h) is as shown below: Structure (h). The nitrogen containing surfactant of structure (i) is as shown below: Structure (i). The present invention is also directed to an agricultural composition comprising at least one agrochemical and at least one nitrogen containing surfactant composition of the present invention. 

Nitrogen containing surfactants with alkoxylation on the hydroxyl group of fatty chains

Spray drift during the application of an aqueous mixture of glyphosate and an auxinic herbicide is reduced by incorporating certain tertiary amine or tertiary amine oxide surfactants into the aqueous solution or mixture to be sprayed.

Amine and amine oxide surfactants for controlling herbicide spray drift

The present invention generally relates to herbicidal compositions, and more particularly, herbicidal compositions containing glyphosate or a salt thereof and a surfactant comprising at least one mono and/or diglyceride alkoxylate.

Herbicidal formulations comprising glyphosate and alkoxylated glycerides

Disclosed is an agricultural composition comprising at least one agricultural chemical and at least one cellulose ether, wherein the cellulose ether is a nonionic methylethylhydroxyethyl cellulose (MEHEC) polymer as well as a method for reducing spray drift during the spraying of an aqueous solution. The method comprises combining the MEHEC polymer with at least one agricultural chemical to obtain the aqueous solution and spraying the aqueous solution. Also disclosed is a method for increasing resistance to rain wash off of an aqueous solution sprayed onto a surface.

Cellulose ether as a drift control agent and rainfastness agent

Gel prevention agents and methods for use with agricultural products include certain alkylamidoamines and their quaternary ammonium counterparts that, when blended with products containing alkoxylated surfactants, the alkylamidoamines and their quaternary counterparts reduce the gel formation tendency of such products.

Gel prevention agents

The present invention relates to stable glyphosate formulations with improved efficacy by a highly effective alkoxylated alkylamine quaternary surfactant at a very low used level. The alkoxylated alkylamine quaternary surfactant is compatible in all salts of glyphosate formulations (including potassium and ammonium) even at very high concentration (470-600 g a.e./l).

Alkoxylated alkylamine quaternary surfactants for glyphosate

The present invention generally relates to a glyphosate formulation with enhanced viscosity, said formulation containing a thickening composition comprising at least one nitrogen-containing surfactant.
