GROWTH REGULATOR CONCENTRATE AND USE THEREOF

摘要

The invention relates to a liquid dispersion comprising (i) at least one growth regulator which has a solubility in vegetable oil of about 0.1 wt % or less; (ii) an organic hydrophobic carrier, preferably a vegetable oil, hydrocarbon oil or paraffin oil, or a derivative thereof; wherein the at least one growth regulator which is insoluble or unstable in water, is present in the liquid dispersion in an amount exceeding 0.1 wt %; and wherein more than 90% of the particles of said growth regulator has a particle size of between 1-7 μm; wherein the dispersion further comprises (iii) an emulsifier which stabilizes the dispersion in the organic carrier, and which causes the concentrate to be water miscible and self-emulsifying when diluted in water in a suitable dilution, such as for example a 1:50 dilution or higher dilution; wherein the dispersion is essentially water free.

1. A liquid dispersion comprising:
at least one growth regulator which has a solubility in vegetable oil of about 0.1 wt % or less; an organic hydrophobic carrier; wherein the at least one growth regulator is insoluble or unstable in water, and is present in the liquid dispersion in an amount exceeding about 0.1 wt %; wherein more than about 90% of the particles of said growth regulator have a particle size of between 1-7 μm; wherein the dispersion further comprises an emulsifier which stabilizes the dispersion in the organic carrier, and which causes the concentrate to be water miscible and self-emulsifying when diluted in water in a suitable dilution, such as for example a 1:50 dilution or higher dilution; wherein the dispersion is essentially water free.
