    Applications & Uses

    Applications
    • Microemulsions as opposed to macroemulsions give emulsions of very small particle size and very good stability. Typically when a microemulsion is achieved the end product is a clear solution which sometimes has a slight bloom. One main advantage of microemulsions is that they are easily dilutable to the required concentration.
    • Agrosurf ME30 can be used as an emulsifier for insecticide (e.g Flufenoxuron), fungicide (e.g IPBC) and herbicide formulations whether they are single or mixed systems. The actives can be added to this product directly to produce a concentrate. The concentrate can then be diluted down by adding to water to the required strength.
    • Agrosurf ME30 is compatible with anionic, nonionic, cationic and amphoteric surfactants.
