Abstract
The invention relates to supports consisting of nanoscalar polymer fibres, polymer tubes or hollow fibres for the application and targeted and/or delayed release of ingredients, in particular, agricultural active ingredients. The invention also relates to a method and a device for the production of supports of this type in a charged or empty state. The method and device use electrospinning technology.
Claims5
A method of using nanoscaled polymer fibers, polymer tubes or nanoscaled hollow fibers with and/or without nanoscaled morphologies as carriers for agricultural or agriculturally useful active substances, wherein the fibers or tubes feature a diameter of 10 nm to 6 μm and are biodegradable, i.e. are degradable under natural environmental conditions.
