    Applications & Uses

    Applications
    • Agrosurf NEC12 is a speciality nonionic developed as an emulsifier for use in emulsifiable concentrate formulations. It can be used in conjunction with the anionics found in the Agrosurf AEC range. A combination of both anionic and nonionic emulsifiers can provide good synergistic effects in terms of emulsion quality and stability.
    • Agrosurf NEC12 is commonly used in combination with either Agrosurf PWS or Agrosurf CA for the preparation of emulsifiable concentrates containing organo-phosphorous insecticides such as Fenitrothion, Methyl Ethoate and Dichlorvos. It can also be used in a similar way for herbicide systems based upon esters of chlorinated phenoxy-alkanoic acids.
    • Agrosurf NEC12 is compatible with anionic, nonionic, cationic and amphoteric surfactants.
