Understanding Tetramethrin: Properties, Uses, and Safety Measures
Tetramethrin, with CAS number 7696-12-0, is a highly effective synthetic pyrethroid insecticide recognized for its rapid action against a wide array of insects. Its chemical composition, including its molecular formula C19H25NO4 and a molecular weight of 331.41, underpins its potent insecticidal properties. Typically appearing as a white to light yellow powder with a purity of at least 95%, Tetramethrin is a cornerstone ingredient for many pest control products manufactured by NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD.
The primary application of Tetramethrin is its fast-acting knockdown capability. This characteristic is crucial in controlling insects that pose immediate threats, such as mosquitoes and flies, which can transmit diseases. While its lethal performance can sometimes be limited, leading to insect recovery, it is frequently compounded with other active ingredients, such as more potent pyrethroids or synergists, to ensure a more complete kill. This strategic formulation approach is a key aspect of Tetramethrin applications in pest control.
The Tetramethrin knockdown effect is highly valued in sectors like household pest management and public health. For instance, it can be used to flush out cockroaches from their hiding places, making them vulnerable to other insecticides. This makes Tetramethrin a recommended pesticide by organizations like the World Health Organization for public health applications. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. provides premium Tetramethrin, enabling the creation of effective sprays and aerosols that offer quick relief from insect infestations.
When using Tetramethrin, adherence to Tetramethrin safety precautions is essential. This includes wearing protective clothing, avoiding contact with skin and eyes, and ensuring proper ventilation in treated areas. Storage in a cool, dry, and sealed place, away from food and beverages, is also vital. By understanding these properties and employing them judiciously, NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. ensures that its Tetramethrin contributes to effective and responsible pest control strategies, aligning with the advancements in pyrethroid insecticide formulations.
