Abstract
Pesticidal compositions for improving physical characteristics of pesticide formulations which comprise natural pesticidal oil active ingredients are disclosed. One such composition comprises a pesticidal natural oil active ingredient, a surfactant to disperse the active ingredient in a water emulsion and a polymeric pour point depressant effective to reduce a pour point temperature of the pesticidal natural oil active ingredient. Methods for providing pesticidal compositions and application to control one or more pests are also disclosed.
Claims20
A pesticidal composition comprising
- a pesticidal natural oil active ingredient;
- a surfactant in an amount operable to disperse the pesticidal natural oil active ingredient in a water emulsion;
- and
- a polymeric pour point depressant in an amount effective to reduce a pour point temperature of said pesticidal natural oil active ingredient, wherein the polymeric pour point depressant comprises at least one of a crystallization inhibitor and a co-crystallization modifier of at least one wax component of the pesticidal natural oil.
