Herbicidal composition, a method for its preparation and the use thereof

摘要

A herbicidal composition comprises microcapsules having a polymer shell and containing therein clomazone and a stabilizer, the stabilizer comprises urea. Also claimed is a method of preparing a herbicidal composition, the method comprises the steps of: providing a water immiscible phase comprising clomazone, urea, an isocyanate and optionally an acetylene carbamide derivative (ACD) cross-linker; providing an aqueous phase comprising one or more surfactants; combining the water immiscible phase and the aqueous phase to form a dispersion of the water immiscible phase in the aqueous phase; thereby forming microcapsules of polyurea containing droplets of the water immiscible phase; and curing the microcapsules.
