The STEPSPERSE dispersants are used in a variety of agricultural delivery systems including wettable powders, spray dried, extruded, and pan granulated dry flowables. These products offer traditionally liquid surfactants in a dry form. These products provide the following attributes:
- Good performance in formulations requiring high silica levels
- Improved long term storage performance
- Flexibility in formulating
- Improved hard water performance
- Compatibility with PVA packaging
- Lower surface tension
