Claims25
A composition comprising a neem extract or biomass comprising azadirachtin and a water-soluble, non-ionic polysiloxane surfactant, wherein at least 90% of the azadirachtin remains present after an accelerated aging test of 14 days at 54° C. in a sealed container, and wherein the composition is a non-aqueous, liquid concentrate.
A composition comprising
- a formulation comprising a neem extract or biomass comprising azadirachtin and a water-soluble organosilicone surfactant, wherein at least 90% of the azadirachtin remains present after an accelerated aging test of 14 days at 54° C. in a sealed container, and wherein the formulation is a non-aqueous, liquid concentrate, and
- water,
- wherein azadirachtin is present as particles less than one micron.
A method of making a composition, comprising
- diluting a formulation comprising a neem extract or biomass comprising azadirachtin and a water-soluble no non-ionic polysiloxane surfactant, wherein at least 90% of the azadirachtin remains present after an accelerated aging test of 14 days at 54° C. in a sealed container, and wherein the formulation is a non-aqueous, liquid concentrate with water.
A composition comprising
- a formulation comprising a neem extract or biomass comprising azadirachtin and a water-soluble organosilicone surfactant, wherein at least 90% of the azadirachtin remains present after an accelerated aging test of 14 days at 54° C. in a sealed container, and wherein the formulation is a non-aqueous, liquid concentrate, and
- water,
- wherein the composition is a micro-emulsion comprising azadirachtin and a water-soluble organosilicone surfactant, wherein the concentration of azadirachtin is 0.1-10% A weight/weight of the composition.
A composition comprising
- a formulation comprising a neem extract or biomass comprising azadirachtin and a water-soluble organosilicone surfactant, wherein at least 90% of the azadirachtin remains present after an accelerated aging test of 14 days at 54° C. in a sealed container, and wherein the formulation is a non-aqueous, liquid concentrate, and
- water
- wherein the composition is a nano-suspension comprising azadirachtin and a water-soluble organosilicone surfactant, wherein the concentration of azadirachtin is 0.1-10% weight/weight of the composition.
A composition comprising a formulation comprising a neem extract or biomass comprising azadirachtin and a water-soluble non-ionic polysiloxane, wherein at least 90% of the azadirachtin remains present after an accelerated aging test of 14 days at 54° C. in a sealed container, and wherein the formulation is a non-aqueous, liquid concentrate, and
- water.
