Applications of Silicone Agriculture Adjuvant LC-2077

• In Agrochemical In-Can Formulations

It may be used as a component in agrochemical formulations. Although organosilicone surfactants are subject to hydrolysis under acidic or basic conditions, optimum performance is achieved by buffering the formulation to pH 6.5 to 7.5.

Additionally, it is recommended that LC-2077 be used at a concentration of at least 5%, based on the total formulation.

• As a Tank-Mix Adjuvant

When used as a tank-side adjuvant may be used to improve spray coverage, improve uptake or to allow for a reduction in spray volume. It is most effective as a tank-side adjuvant when spray mixtures are within a pH range of 5 to 8 and used within 24 hours of preparation. High spray volumes, coupled with high surfactant rates, are not required to achieve sufficient coverage with LC-2077. In fact, it has the potential to provide adequate coverage in many low volume spray applications at rates between 0.025% and 0.1%.
