Claims19
A liquid formulation comprising:
- nanoparticles comprising a polymer and a strobilurin compound with an average diameter of between about 1 nm and about 500 nm;
- wherein the polymer is a polyelectrolyte copolymer comprised of between about 50 weight percent and about 95 weight percent methacrylic acid monomers and between about 50 weight percent and about 5 weight percent ethyl acrylate or styrene monomers and the strobilurin compound is associated with the polymer;
- between about 0.5 weight percent and about 5 weight percent of a naphthalene sulfonate condensate dispersant;
- between about 0.5 weight percent and about 5 weight percent of a sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate wetting agent;
- between about 0.1 weight percent and about 1 weight percent of an anti-foaming agent;
- between about 0.01 weight percent and about 0.1 weight percent a preservative;
- and
- water;
- wherein the nanoparticles comprise between about 1 weight percent and about 50 weight percent of the formulation.
