Agrochemical composition and method for preparing and using the same

Abstract

An agrochemical composition comprises an azole active ingredient and an N,N-dialkyl long chain alkylamide. The N,N-dialkyl long chain alkylamide is present in sufficient amount to prevent or inhibit the crystallization of the azole derivative during the application of the composition to a locus. Preferred N,N-Dialkyl long chain alkylamide(s) comprised in the composition is/are selected from the group consisting of compounds of the formula (I): in which (a) R1 and R2 are independently normal alkyl radicals having 2 carbon atoms, and R represents an alkyl group having from 10 to 30 carbon atoms; or (b) R1 and R2 are independently normal alkyl radicals having 3 carbon atoms, and R represents an alkyl group having from 9 to 30 carbon atoms; or 20 (c) R1 and R2 are independently normal alkyl radicals having from 4 to 20 carbon atoms and R represents an alkyl group having from 6 to 30 carbon atoms. The composition is particularly advantageous when formulated with a fungicide, in particular one or more of tebuconazole, cyproconazole, difenoconazole, diniconazole, triticonazole, hexaconazole, triflumiazole, metconazole, tricylazole, flusilazole, flutriafol, and myclobutanil.
