SPRAYABLE COMPOSITION FOR INSECT CONTROL

摘要

A sprayable composition suitable for releasing an active substance by vaporisation, comprises a dispersion of the active substance and a non-phytotoxic waxy substance such as a long-chain fatty acid in an aqueous solvent containing a primary stabiliser such as polyvinyl alcohol and optionally a binder such as sodium alginate. The composition is produced by (a) dissolving an active ingredient in the waxy substance, (b) dispersing the solution in an aqueous solvent containing the primary stabiliser, and (c) adding the binder, and optionally diluting the dispersion obtained in (b).
