Abstract
The present invention relates to various pesticidal compositions including non-water-continuous herbicidal dispersion compositions and processes for preparing these compositions. The present invention further relates to herbicidal application mixtures including water continuous dispersion compositions, processes for preparing these application mixtures, and various methods of use. Further, the present invention relates to various herbicidal compositions having improved application properties.
Claims36
A herbicidal dispersion composition comprising:
- an oil continuous phase comprising an acetamide herbicide comprising acetochlor and a nonaqueous liquid, wherein the weight ratio of the nonaqueous liquid to acetamide herbicide is at least 1:1;
- and
- a dispersed phase in the oil continuous phase and comprising a solid phase herbicide, wherein the nonaqueous liquid comprises a paraffinic or aliphatic hydrocarbon liquid, mineral oil, an ester with a carbon content of at least 12 and/or a silicone oil, wherein the concentration of the acetamide herbicide in the herbicidal dispersion composition is from about 20 wt. % to about 50 wt. %, wherein the solid phase herbicide comprises mesotrione, and wherein:
- the concentration of the nonaqueous liquid in the herbicidal dispersion composition is from about 20 wt. % to about 75 wt. % and the volume fraction of the oil continuous phase based on the total volume of the herbicidal dispersion composition is from about 0.5 to about 0.9.
