Agrochemical Formulation: Expert Tips for Using Aqueous Dispersants Effectively
NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. is committed to supporting agrochemical manufacturers with not only high-quality products but also expert knowledge. Today, we offer practical tips on effectively using aqueous dispersants in your formulations to achieve optimal stability and efficacy.
The correct application of a dispersant is as important as selecting the right one. For high-performance aqueous dispersants like TH-904, understanding the optimal dosage is the first step. This dosage can vary significantly based on the specific active ingredient, its particle size, concentration, and the desired formulation type (Suspension Concentrate, Water-Dispersible Granule, or Wettable Powder). We recommend conducting thorough laboratory trials to determine the minimum effective dosage for your particular formulation. Over-using a dispersant can sometimes lead to unwanted rheological properties or increased costs.
Compatibility is another key consideration. While many advanced dispersants, such as our TH-904, offer broad compatibility, it's always advisable to test them with other formulation components, including active ingredients, wetting agents, antifoams, and preservatives. This is particularly important when looking for a dispersant with good acid alkali tolerance or when aiming for synergy with other additives.
When integrating a dispersant into your process, consider the order of addition. Often, it is best to add the dispersant to the liquid phase before the active ingredient is introduced, or to add it during the milling or grinding stage. This ensures that the dispersant can effectively coat the active ingredient particles as they are formed or introduced, maximizing its stabilizing effect. For a pesticide granule dispersion enhancer, ensuring even distribution during the granulation process is critical.
For Suspension Concentrates (SC), the dispersant helps maintain a fine particle size and prevents sedimentation over time. For Water-Dispersible Granules (WDG), it ensures that the granules disperse rapidly and completely upon contact with water. For Wettable Powders (WP), it improves the powder's ability to wet and suspend evenly in water. Using a dispersant for wettable powder effectively enhances its suspensibility.
At NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD., we believe that knowledge sharing is vital. We encourage our clients to consult with our technical team for personalized advice on incorporating our dispersants into their formulations. By following these expert tips and leveraging our high-performance aqueous dispersants, you can create more stable, effective, and cost-efficient agrochemical products. When planning your next purchase, consider how expert application can unlock the full potential of your chosen dispersant.
