PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF MICROCAPSULES

摘要

Process for the preparation of microcapsules The invention relates to a process for the preparation of microcapsules having a capsule wall of polyurea and encapsulating a water-immiscible pesticide. The process comprises first dispersing a solution of a polyisocyanate in the sparingly water-soluble pesticide, in the presence of an anionic dispersant and at least one nonionic protective colloid and/or a nonionic surfactant, and subsequently reacting the dispersion with a polyamine, to give a stable aqueous suspension of microcapsules which can be used either direct or after dilution with water as pesticidal composition.
