Claims46
A herbicide composition comprising a herbicide compound in acid form and acidifying agent, wherein the herbicide compound in acid form is other than glyphosate acid.
A herbicide composition comprising
- a herbicide compound in acid form selected from the group consisting of:
- a phenoxy herbicide, a pyridine herbicide, a benzoic acid herbicide, a quinolinic acid herbicide, an aryloxy phenoxy propionic acid herbicide, and combinations thereof, and
- an acidifying agent.
A herbicide composition comprising a herbicide compound in acid form and an acidifying agent, wherein the acidifying agent is selected from the group consisting of:
- sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, acetic acid, phosphoric acid, perchloric acid, polyphosphoric acid, and combinations thereof, and the herbicide composition does not include an adduct of sulfuric acid and a compound of the formula:
- 8
- wherein X is chalcogen, and each of R1, R2, and R3 is independently selected from hydrogen and organic radicals.
A herbicide composition comprising herbicide compound in acid form and an acidifying agent, wherein the acidifying agent is other than an acidifying agent selected from the group consisting of sulfuric acid;
- an adduct of sulfuric acid and a compound of the formula:
- 9
- wherein X is chalcogen, and each of R1, R2, and R3 is independently selected from hydrogen and organic radicals;
- and mixtures thereof.
A herbicide composition selected from the group consisting of:
- a microemulsion-forming-concentrate that contains a herbicide compound in acid form;
- and a microemulsion that contains a herbicide compound in acid form;
- wherein the herbicide composition further comprises acidifying agent.
A method of applying a herbicide composition, the method comprising:
- preparing a herbicide composition comprising herbicide compound in acid form and acidifying agent wherein the herbicide compound in acid form is other than glyphosate acid, and
- applying the herbicide composition comprising the herbicide compound in acid form and acidifying agent, to control plant growth.
A method of applying a herbicide composition, the method comprising:
- preparing a herbicide composition comprising herbicide compound in acid form and acidifying agent, wherein the herbicide compound in acid form selected from the group consisting of:
- a phenoxy herbicide, a pyridine herbicide, a benzoic acid herbicide, a quinolinic acid herbicide, an aryloxy phenoxy propionic acid herbicide, and combinations thereof, and
- applying the herbicide composition comprising the herbicide compound in acid form and acidifying agent, to control plant growth.
