High-Performance Solutions for Tank Mix

Syensqo's Innovative and Sustainable Solutions

Tank mix adjuvants are materials combined with crop protection products in the tank to boost the biological efficacy of the active, enhance the spray quality and deliver benefits that cannot be added in-can.

Crop protection products are becoming increasingly complex and sensitive formulations, requiring proper uptake and activation through oils and surfactants. Additionally, more and more products are frequently combined in the same tank, leading to compatibility issues. Tank mix adjuvants ensure activation and compatibility in these challenging formulations.

An increasingly important class of tank mix adjuvants addresses spray formation and retention, which ensures effective delivery of the active and improved pesticide use efficiency. As such, these ingredients are increasingly important in sustainable farming practices that allow for reduced pesticide use, lower treatment costs, better yield and safer food.

One critical aspect of spray formation is related to droplet size. Controlling droplet size is a key characteristic that can be altered to minimize pesticide spray drift and off-target movement. The core of Syensqo's tank mix technology addresses anti-drift and retention, with innovative and sustainable solutions using bio-based polymers that deliver highly effective drift control performance.
