摘要:
The present invention relates to a stable suspoemulsion which includes an oil-in-water miniemulsion which includes at least one agriculturally active ingredient and a suspension that includes at least one agriculturally active ingredient and methods of using such suspoemulsions to treat plants. The miniemulsion comprises oily globules that include at least one agriculturally active ingredient, and are coated with a polymeric adsorption layer. The polymeric adsorption layer coating the oily globules includes (1) at least one polymeric surface-active agent having an HLB values in the range of about 16 to about 18, and (2) at least one ionic surface-active agent. The oily globules of the miniemulsion have a mean particle diameter of less than about 800 nanometers, are resistant to Ostwald ripening and are well suited for the treatment of plants. Agriculturally active ingredients that can be used with the suspoemulsion include pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, mitocides, bactericides and the like.
