Product Agricultural Organic Silicon Wetting Aid 2283: A Super Wetting Agent That Helps Reduce Pesticide Usage and Enhance Efficiency


In agricultural production, the traditional pesticide spraying method has a serious problem of wasted pesticide solution. Research shows that only 20% to 30% of the pesticide solution can effectively remain on the crop leaves, while up to 70% to 80% of the pesticides are lost due to their inability to effectively wet the target. This not only increases production costs but also puts pressure on the environment. Our company has launched the product agricultural organic silicon wetting additive 2283, which is a low-molecular-weight organic silicon polyether non-ionic surfactant. With its outstanding performance such as super spreading, efficient penetration, and resistance to rain erosion, it provides an efficient additive solution for pesticide reduction and efficiency improvement as well as the green and sustainable development of agriculture.


I. Core Physical and Chemical Characteristics


Product agricultural organic silicon wetting additive 2283 is a colorless to pale yellow transparent liquid. It belongs to an organic-modified trisiloxane compound and has a viscosity of 40 to 90 square millimeters per second at 25 degrees Celsius. The effective content is not less than 95%, and the surface tension is only 21 to 22 millinewtons per meter. This product is a non-ionic surfactant. Through completing the wetting treatment of plants to improve the effect of pesticides and fertilizers, it further enhances the spraying effect. It can enter the stomata through the wax layer on the leaf surface and absorb better, demonstrating the comprehensive performance advantages of super spreading agent, super penetration agent, and super spreading agent.


II. Core Performance Advantages


Product agricultural organic silicon wetting additive 2283, with its unique molecular structure and low surface tension characteristics, exhibits the following core performance advantages in agricultural applications:


Excellent spreading and wetting performance. The product can greatly reduce the surface tension of water, significantly reduce the contact angle between the pesticide solution and the biological target, and achieve rapid wetting and dispersion on surfaces that are difficult to wet, such as the wax layer on the leaf surface, enabling complete coverage of herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, and other pesticides.


Promote rapid absorption and resistance to rain erosion. The product can greatly improve the efficiency of plant tissue absorption of pesticides, and quickly absorb to achieve rain resistance - since the herbicides have penetrated into the internal tissues of the plant, they will not be washed away by rain, effectively ensuring the persistence of the pesticide effect.


Increase pesticide utilization and reduce dosage. The product can increase the effective utilization rate of pesticides, reduce the pesticide dosage by up to 30% to 50%, and also reduce the amount of spraying water, meeting environmental protection requirements and helping agricultural sustainable development.


III. Application Areas


Product agricultural organic silicon wetting additive 2283, with its excellent wetting and spreading performance, can play a key role in the following agricultural application areas:


1. Additive for pesticide formulation. The product can be directly added as a component of the formulation and is suitable for various agricultural pesticides such as herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, and plant growth regulators. It is necessary to adjust the pH of the formulation system to be as close to neutral as possible, with the suitable pH range being 5.5 to 6.5. Beyond this range, it may lead to hydrolysis.


2. Bucket mixing additive. The product can be mixed before use to increase the coverage area of the spraying liquid, improve the internal absorption effect, and reduce the spraying volume. The recommended usage rate varies depending on the type of pesticide: 0.03% to 0.05% for plant growth regulators, 0.03% to 0.15% for herbicides, 0.03% to 0.1% for insecticides, 0.02% to 0.05% for fungicides, and 0.02% to 0.1% for fertilizers and trace elements.


3. Enhancing the efficacy of foliar fertilizers and trace elements. By adding the product to foliar fertilizers and trace element spraying, it can significantly improve the wetting, spreading, and penetration absorption efficiency of nutrients on the leaf surface, enhancing the fertilization effect.


4. Ensuring the effectiveness of pesticide application in rainy areas or rainy seasons. In rainy areas or rainy seasons, the product can effectively ensure that the pesticide solution maintains good efficacy after rainfall, reducing the number of supplementary sprays and lowering the spraying cost.


IV. Usage Methods and Precautions When used in pesticide formulations, the product can be directly added as the direct addition component for the formulation, and the pH of the formulation system should be adjusted to be as close to neutral as possible. As a bucket mixing additive, it can be mixed before use to increase the coverage area and internal absorption effect of the spray liquid. When using, it is recommended to conduct tests in a small area first to ensure that it will not cause damage to crops, and use the additive in accordance with the instructions on the manufacturer's label.


V. Packaging Specifications and Storage Conditions


The agricultural organic silicon wetting additive 2283 provided in the product offers two packaging specifications: 200 kilograms of closed containers and 1000 kilograms of containers. This makes it convenient for users of different scales to choose. Store in a sealed container, with a shelf life of 24 months. The product should be stored in a cool, ventilated, and dry place, avoiding high temperatures and direct sunlight.


VI. Quality Assurance and Environmental Value


The agricultural organic silicon wetting additive 2283 in the production process has established a strict quality control system. Key indicators such as product appearance, viscosity, effective content, and surface tension are inspected throughout the process to ensure consistency and reliability between batches. With the continuous advancement of the national policy of reducing pesticide use and increasing efficiency and the deep development of green agriculture, the demand for agricultural organic silicon additives with super spreading, efficient penetration, and resistance to rain erosion continues to grow. The agricultural organic silicon wetting additive 2283, with its excellent performance and environmental characteristics, is becoming an important additive choice for pesticide formulation enterprises and farmers in the process of reducing pesticide use and increasing efficiency, providing strong support for promoting the green and high-quality development of agriculture and reducing pesticide residue risks.
