Agrosurf NOE is a vegetable oil pressed from the fruits and seeds of the Neem tree, Azadirachta Indica, and contains a natural Insecticide, acaricide and fungicide called azadirachtin, a complex triterpenoid. It is not strictly a juvenile hormone mimic but has a more complex spectrum of activity. It acts as a potent antifeedant and also affects insect metamorphosis and development. In addition to azadirachtin, neem extracts contain compounds with antifeedant, repellency, growth regulator and oviposition deterrent activities and extracts of Neem seeds have been registered as pesticides for use in controlling a number of insects affecting ornamentals and horticultural crops. Neem Oil is not known to be harmful to mammals, birds and earthworms. Neem Oil works from inside the plant as it is a systemic insecticide, which means that in addition to foliar spraying a solution can be poured onto the soil, or container compost and the plants will absorb it, they take it up into their tissue, and it works from the inside. Neem Oil is a dark liquid in its normal state and to convert the form into a sprayable liquid, Lankem has developed an emulsifier system that produces a nice free flowing emulsion in an aqueous environment.

Lansurf SML can be used singularly or in combination with the ester ethoxylates such as Lansurf SML20. This product is hydrophobic and finds use as an emulsifier in many waxes and creams for household applications.

Lansurf AE103 is a nonionic surfactant produced by the reaction of 3 moles of ethylene oxide onto a 2-propyl heptanol base. This particular range of ethylene oxide offers a product with a wide range of applications especially for detergency and wetting. This product has good environmental profiling and is readily biodegradable.

Lanphos PET22 is a phosphate ester manufactured using phosphorous pentoxide to give a product that contains both mono and di-esters. The main advantage of a phosphate ester over a conventional anionic is it’s excellent stability in high concentration of acid,alkali and electrolyte.

Lansurf CO12 is a nonionic surfactant produced from the ethoxylation of castor oil. This product offers good emulsification, wetting, detergency and lubricity. This product also has the advantage of being of low toxicity and has good food contact approval.

Kemsurf CA is a calcium salt of a biodegradable dodecylbenzene sulphonic acid. The base acid for Kemsurf CA is manufactured by SO3 sulphonation to produce a product of good color and low inorganic content. Kemsurf CA is a hydrophobic anionic surfactant and functions as an emulsifier for oils and aromatic solvents in the formulation of degreasers. It finds many applications, however, as an emulsifier for pesticide and herbicide systems, especially were spray application is involved. Kemsurf CA may also be used in the emulsification of waxes and hydrocarbon solvents. This product has good compatibility with other anionics and nonionic surfactants and maintains good stability, detergency, foaming power and soil suspension in alkaline, mild acid, low electrolyte and in hard or soft water.

Agrosurf BPE211-EH is a powerful balanced pair emulsifier used in conjunction with Agrosurf BPE148-EH. Once the correct ratios are established these two emulsifiers can be used for a wide range of emulsifiable concentrates across many different pesticide types.

Lanphos PE36 is a powerful emulsifier that can be used across a wide range of polymer systems and more importantly is used as a primary emulsifier without the need for a secondary surfactant to stabilize the system. As a versatile emulsifier. this is the first choice for any formulator. As well as providing extremely small particle sizes it has an in-built stabilizer system to prevent re-agglomeration of polymer particles. Lanphos PE36 is supplied in the free acid form and is typically neutralized before use to produce the salt of choice for individual applications.

Lansurf AE108W is a nonionic surfactant produced by the reaction of 8 moles of ethylene oxide onto a 2-propyl heptanol base. This particular range of ethylene oxide offers a product with a wide range of applications especially for detergency and wetting. This product has good environmental profiling and is readily biodegradable.

Agrosurf BPE211 is a traditional balanced pair emulsifier used in conjunction with Agrosurf BPE148 to produce excellent emulsifiable concentrates once the correct ratio of the two emulsifiers has been established.

Lansurf AE35 is a biodegradable nonionic surfactant produced by the reaction of ethylene oxide on a synthetic primary alcohol. This product is compatible with soaps, anionic, cationic and other nonionic surfactants and exhibits good Oil/Water and Water/Oil emulsification, wetting and detergency. This particular nonionic is anhydrous in nature.

Agrosurf NEC15T 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. These combinations are particularly effective in the preparation of emulsifiable organo-phosphorous insecticides and phenoxy ester herbicides.

Lansurf AE109W is a nonionic surfactant produced by the reaction of 9 moles of ethylene oxide onto a 2-propyl heptanol base. This particular range of ethylene oxide offers a product with a wide range of applications especially for detergency and wetting. This product has good environmental profiling and is readily biodegradable.

Lansurf AE107 is a nonionic surfactant produced by the reaction of 7 moles of ethylene oxide onto a 2-propyl heptanol base. This particular range of ethylene oxide offers a product with a wide range of applications especially for detergency and wetting. This product has good environmental profiling and is readily biodegradable.
