Search CPD:
Action/Use:
- Adjuvant
Use:
For wettable powders, water dispersible granules and suspension concentrates; stabilizers of liquid concentrates. Borresperse*, Lignosite*, Lignosol*, Marasperse*, Norlig*, Polyfons*, Reax* and Vanisperse* are several different types of lignosulfonate dispersing agents suitable for suspending toxicants in the preparation of wettable powders, flowables and water dispersible granules. These materials are water-soluble, anionic derivatives of lignin. Darvan* is a dispersing agent in flowable and wettable dust. Maracell XC* and Vanisperse* will effectively prevent 2,4-D amine concentrates from precipitating when diluted with hard water. Polyfons*, Marasperse*, and Borresperse* are different series of sugar-free sodium lignosulfonate dispersants having varying degrees of sulfonation. Reax* and Diwatex* are the names applied to the series of sulfonated lignin dispersants, wetter-dispersants, and metal complexing agents designed for use in its area of application. The series are sugar-free, highly soluble, free-flowing powders.
