STABLE HIGH STRENGTH OIL-IN-WATER EMULSIONS

摘要

Novel high-strength herbicidal oil-in-water emulsions containing a water soluble salt of glyphosate and an oil soluble herbicide active ingredient show enhanced stability to oil phase coalescence and active ingredient crystallization by the use of specific surfactants and water immiscible organic solvents. A stable high-strength herbicidal oil-in-water emulsion is disclosed that includes a discontinuous oil phase comprising, with respect to the oil-in-water emulsion, from about 25 grams active ingredient per liter (g ai/L) to about 300 g ailL of at least one oil soluble herbicide active ingredient and from 0 grams per liter (giL) to about 300 giL of a water immiscible organic solvent.
