This book was released on 2014 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Products based on co-polymers of glycerol, at least one dicarboxylic and one monocarboxylic acid, act as dispersing agents and/or adjuvants in various soluble liquid formulations. Because of the hydrophilicity of the polyglycerol chain, use of these products is typical in water-based formulations. Presenting novel derivatives of this cross-linked co-polymer that has high oil solubility, for example, in alkyl esters of fatty acids, is the goal of this study. One such derivative is a mixture with methylated seed oil (MSO) and is able to be used in oil-based formulations or as tank-mix adjuvant with or without further wetting agents or other components. The new product, referred to as a novel adjuvant (NOVAD) in this study, has no hazardous labeling, is based on renewable resources, and will fulfill any criteria for environmentally friendly adjuvants. Thus, NOVAD is a sustainable product with wide use potential in crop protection. Both components of the product are adjuvants and we will demonstrate the property as an enhancer of penetration of various model compounds and selected active ingredients in this study. The product acts as a foliar penetration enhancer in particular, because the mobility of active ingredients in the plant cuticle is rapidly increased and active availability in the deposit is high. Plant compatibility indications are excellent across all major grain and fiber crops, as well as various fruit crops, vegetable crops, and ornamental plants. NOVAD's plant compatibility is superior to other MSO or non-ionic surfactant adjuvants having the same attribute as a powerful penetration enhancer. The basic product properties are flexibly adapted in accordance with the major use as in-can or tank-mix adjuvant for the respective crop or indication.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper describes studies that were conducted to investigate the effects of different surfactant and emulsion adjuvant chemistries and formulations on spray characteristics and drift potential of a commercial herbicide. Previous research has shown that surfactant, emulsion, and polymer adjuvants can affect the formation of sprays and liquid distribution patterns when atomized through flat fan nozzles. The present research involved the application of various different tank mix-adjuvant combinations through flat fan, disc-core, and air induction nozzles. The sprays were characterized using spark photography, droplet size analysis, liquid patternation, and driftability measurements in a wind tunnel. Atomization was related to the physical properties of the tank mixes and sheet breakup mechanisms. The results will help in the development of ASTM test guidelines for spray characterization and drift research, and provide valuable information for applicators to consider when selecting tank mix-nozzle combinations for the application of agricultural chemicals.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The potential of selected surfactants and other adjuvants to increase cuticular penetration of foliar applied active ingredients was investigated under defined environmental conditions (RH, T). The herbicide cyanazine and the weak acid NAA were selected as model compounds. The time course of cyanazine penetration through apple leaf cuticles in the presence of different adjuvants varied from no penetration within 5 days to almost quantitative penetration within 5 hours. Effective adjuvants are distinguished as donor adjuvants, that produce a liquid film on the surface, and accelerator adjuvants, that additionally can penetrate into and increase solute mobility in the cuticle. Adjuvant efficacy in both groups differs significantly among products and is characterized according to chemistry and concentration, technical product quality, environmental factors, and plant organ (leaf/fruit) and species, respectively. An example is given to combine adjuvants to manipulate the time course of penetration of NAA. The limited use of HLB as a general indicator for the efficacy of adjuvants at the cuticular level is discussed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a world of increasing weed, insect, fungi, bacteria, and nematode resistance, the use of pesticides with different modes of action is the main strategy to prevent these issues. Glufosinate is becoming more important in weed control programs to deal with glyphosate resistance. Tank mix adjuvants are important tools for providing favorable physical chemical properties and boosting active herbicide biological activity. Spreader-sticker adjuvants improve wetting and spreading of the droplets on the leaf, as well as retention of such droplets, enabling other important positive effects such as adhesion. As a contact herbicide, glufosinate could benefit from a spreader-sticker adjuvant use. On the other hand, the main tank mix adjuvants being used with glufosinate are ammonium sulfate (AMS) in the United States and crop oil in Brazil. The objective of this research was to evaluate glufosinate performance when applied with three categories of tank mix adjuvants: AMS, spreader-sticker, and crop oil. The main methodologies used in this study were dynamic surface tension, contact angle on a hard-to-wet leaf surface, and bioefficacy in a greenhouse to control Palmer amaranth and broadleaf signalgrass in Mississippi. The spreader-sticker resulted in the lowest contact angle and surface tension, while all three categories enhanced glufosinate bioefficacy. Crop oils and spreader-stickers are crucial alternative tools to improve the herbicide performance, especially in cases where AMS is not desirable in certain spray mixes due to volatility or compatibility issues.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are several types of drift-reduction technology (DRT) adjuvants commercially available. Natural and synthetic water-soluble polymers function by increasing extensional or shear viscosity. These polymers do a very good job reducing fines, but they can significantly increase volume median diameter (VMD) and broaden the particle-size distribution (PSD). Oil-based products produce emulsions that function to keep small spray drops from forming during the atomization process. A novel DRT adjuvant chemistry has been discovered that reduces fines without increasing VMD or broadening PSD significantly. This novel chemistry is lipophilic surfactants. These surfactants were tank mixed with a glyphosate dilution and their spray PSD was measured using a Sympatec HELOS/KF laser diffraction particle-size analyzer. The experimental procedure followed ASTM Standard Test Method E2798-11 ["Characterization of Performance of Spray Drift Reduction Adjuvants for Ground Application," Annual Book of ASTM Standards, Volume 11.05, ASTM International, West Conshohocken, PA, 2011]. The standard uses measurements of particle-size distribution generated when the spray-tank mixture includes the pesticide formulation. The lipophilic surfactant used in this study was an alcohol alkoxylate. This surfactant significantly reduced fines by 40 % to 50 %, and it narrowed the particle-size distribution.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using activator adjuvants with agrochemicals to improve their bioefficacy is an important practice in agriculture. Adjuvants--mostly crop oil concentrates--are needed to ensure the bioefficacy of herbicides from the class of acetyl-CoA carboxylase (Accase) inhibitors. Because of regulatory pressure from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the development and testing of drift technologies has come to the forefront of U.S. application research in the past few years. However, the majority of the drift control agents on the market aim only to reduce the percentage of fine droplets in the spray spectra. There is a strong market need to combine both activator and delivery technology to develop a dual-function adjuvant. The objective of this research was to develop a novel penetrator adjuvant with built-in drift control properties. The adjuvant was based on a crop oil concentrate (COC). Spray droplet spectra for the new adjuvant were determined in still-air conditions using a Sympatec Helos laser diffraction particle size analyzer. The biological effects of this new adjuvant were investigated in comparison to a commercial COC, Agri-Dex, in greenhouse bioassays using fluazifop on green foxtail (Setaria viridis) and clethodim on barnyardgrass (Echinochloa crus-galli). The novel COC affected green foxtail and barnyardgrass similarly as the traditional COC, but at half the typical COC rate. In addition, the new adjuvant significantly reduced the percentage of fine droplets (

Book excerpt: Weeds affect everyone in the world by reducing crop yield and crop quality, delaying or interfering with harvesting, interfering with animal feeding (including poisoning), reducing animal health, preventing water flow, as plant parasites, etc. Weeds are common everywhere and cause many $ billions worth of crop losses annually, with the global cost of controlling weeds running into $ billions. The anatomy of plants is generally well understood, but the examples used for explanations in most books are often restricted to non-weed species. Weeds have many features that make them more competitive, for example enabling them to more quickly recover after herbicide treatment. Some of these adaptations include rhizomes, adapted roots, tubers and other special structures. Until now, no single book has concentrated on weeds’ anatomical features. A comprehensive understanding of these features is, however, often imperative to the successful implementation of many weed control measures. Beautifully and comprehensively illustrated, in full colour throughout, Weed Anatomy provides a comprehensive insight into the anatomy of the globally-important weeds of commercial significance. Commencing with a general overview of anatomy, the major part of the book then includes sections covering monocotyledons, dicotyledons, brackens and horsetails, with special reference to their anatomy. Ecological and evolutionary aspects of weeds are also covered and a number of less common weeds such as Adonis vernalis, Caucalis platycarpos and Scandix pecten-veneris are also included. The authors of this book, who have between them many years of experience studying weeds, have put together a true landmark publication, providing a huge wealth of commercially-important information. Weed scientists, plant anatomists and agricultural scientists, including personnel within the agrochemical and crop protection industry, will find a great deal of useful information within the book’s covers. All libraries in universities and research establishments where agricultural and biological sciences are studied and taught should have copies of this exceptional book on their shelves.

Book excerpt: The objective of this book is to assist scientists and engineers select the ideal material or manufacturing process for particular applications; these could cover a wide range of fields, from light-weight structures to electronic hardware. The book will help in problem solving as it also presents more than 100 case studies and failure investigations from the space sector that can, by analogy, be applied to other industries. Difficult-to-find material data is included for reference. The sciences of metallic (primarily) and organic materials presented throughout the book demonstrate how they can be applied as an integral part of spacecraft product assurance schemes, which involve quality, material and processes evaluations, and the selection of mechanical and component parts. In this successor edition, which has been revised and updated, engineering problems associated with critical spacecraft hardware and the space environment are highlighted by over 500 illustrations including micrographs and fractographs. Space hardware captured by astronauts and returned to Earth from long durations in space are examined. Information detailed in the Handbook is applicable to general terrestrial applications including consumer electronics as well as high reliability systems associated with aeronautics, medical equipment and ground transportation. This Handbook is also directed to those involved in maximizing the relia bility of new materials and processes for space technology and space engineering. It will be invaluable to engineers concerned with the construction of advanced structures or mechanical and electronic sub-systems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The induction of antigen-specific immune responses after in vivo transfection with expression plasmids has triggered a revolution of vaccine research. After a first hype, evoked by the fascinating options of this method, clinical studies did not reach the ambitious aims and a phase of disillusion ensued. It became obvious that Gene vaccines displayed a weaker immunogenicity in humans than had been observed in the mouse models. Meanwhile these hurdles have been overcome and gene vaccines undergo a renaissance. The present book gives an update of the “world of naked gene vaccines”, namely DNA and RNA vaccines. Its content ranges from general mechanisms, inherent immunostimulatory properties and the vast potential to modulate immune responses, to recent successful clinical studies and approved veterinary gene vaccines. Beyond the state-of-the-art of genetic immunization, the reader will be stimulated with a chapter addressing “burning questions”.

Book excerpt: Since the mid-1990s, the emergence of a hydrogen economy and the speed with which it will arrive have been vigorously debated. As a disruptive technology, dominant designs for the production, storage and distribution of hydrogen have not yet been established. Neither have performance characteristics been achieved to compete with the existing combustion engine, though the efficiency and durability of hydrogen fuel cells are improving. This publication highlights the uncertainties involved in making choices about hydrogen and fuel cells in planning the development policies on national energy, environment and transport sector.--Publisher's description.
