Countertype Product: Silwet 429 CAS NO.: Lo-249 is a new, hydrolytically stable silicone adjuvant with a broad pH stability range. It is an excellent candidate for formulators to consider for the enhancement of the efficacy of glyphosate herbicide products. It provides excellent penetration performance for glyphosate herbicides as well as extended stability in the 4-9 pH range. This product is a cost-effective penetrant to consider for a replacement of Tallow Amine Ethoxylates (TAE) and other commercial surfactants used as adjuvants for the delivery of glyphosate in herbicide applications, in addition, it is used at much lower rates compared to conventional surfactants formulated in glyphosate products. Features
Provides effective penetration of gyphosates through the eafl cuticles
Enhances efficacy of gyphosates
Up to 10 times lower use rates than TAE surfactant adjuvants

Use rates Lo-249 is a cost-effective penetrant for use in glyphosate herbicide products formulated between pH4-9. It can be added as component directly to such formulations to provide enhanced penetration and efficacy (weed contro) Many gyphosae formulations contain about 10-15% TAE surfactants to provide required weed contro. Lo-249 can provide adequate or better contro with only 3%-5% use rates, which corresponds to a significant 10% reduction of total formulation volume. Storage Store in dry and ventilation place under 40℃, remain original package cosed. Package In 25KG, 200KG, 1000KG drum
