Abstract

Soluble granule pesticidal compositions comprise Flonicamid, a dispersant, and a wetting agent are disclosed.

Claims (16)

1. A soluble granule composition comprising:

a) from 45% by weight to 55% by weight based upon the total weight of all components in the composition of Flonicamid;

b) from 2% by weight to 6% by weight based upon the total weight of all components in the composition of a dispersant selected from the group consisting of sodium alkyl naphthalene sulfonate formaldehyde condensate, alkyl naphthalene sulfonate salts and dodecyl benzene sulfonate (Na) salt;

c) from 0.5% by weight to 3% by weight based upon the total weight of all components in the composition of a wetting agent selected from the group consisting of a mixture of sodium dioctylsulfosuccinate and sodium benzoate wherein the sodium dioctylsufosuccinate is present in a concentration up to 85 weight percent; and

d) from 35% by weight to 45% by weight based upon the total weight of all components in the composition of a water-soluble carrier selected from the group consisting of lactose, sucrose, glucose, starch, sodium tripolyphosphate and water-soluble salts.

2. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the dispersant is sodium alkyl naphthalene sulfonate formaldehyde condensate.

3. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the wetting agent is a mixture of sodium dioctylsulfosuccinate and sodium benzoate wherein the sodium dioctylsulfosuccinate is present in a concentration up to 85 weight percent.

4. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the water-soluble carrier is lactose.

5. The composition of claim 1 , further comprising an anti-foam agent.

6. The composition of claim 1 , further comprising an anti-bacteria agent.

7. A soluble granule composition comprising:

a) from 45% to 55% of Flonicamid;

b) from 2% to 6% of sodium alkyl naphthalene sulfonate formaldehyde condensate;

c) from 0.5% to 3% of a mixture of sodium dioctylsulfosuccinate and sodium benzoate wherein the sodium dioctylsulfosuccinate is present in a concentration up to 85%; and

d) from 35% to 45% of lactose;

wherein all % are % by weight based upon the total weight of all components in the composition
