Claims20
An oil-based agrochemical composition with increased viscosity, comprising
- (a) one or more biocides,
- (b) one or more hydrophobic carriers, and
- (c) one or more polymers selected from the group consisting of poly(meth)acrylates, polymaleates and polyfumarates.
A method of producing an agricultural composition, the method comprising using a polymer selected from the group consisting of poly(meth)acrylates, polymaleates and polyfumarates as a rheology modifier for making agricultural compositions.
A method of increasing viscosity of a hydrophobic carrier for an agricultural composition, the method comprising:
- adding a polymer selected from the group consisting of poly(meth)acrylates, polymaleates, and polyfumarates to the hydrophobic carrier to form a mixture;
- wherein the mixture has a higher viscosity than the hydrophobic carrier.
