Abstract

Methods are provided for the production of granular composite compositions including at least two pesticidally active ingredients in combination such as insecticidally active and herbicidally active ingredients and to the composite combination products produced thereby.

Claims (46)

1. A composition comprising:

a granular substrate,

a coating layer over the granular substrate, the coating layer comprising a blend of

a) a non-cyano containing pyrethroid insecticidally active ingredient,

b) a non-polar tackifier, and

c) a small grain or powdered pesticidally active ingredient, wherein the small grain or powdered pesticidally active ingredient is an herbicidally active ingredient,

wherein polar solvent is absent from the coating layer,

and wherein the small grain or powdered herbicidally active ingredient comprises atrazine or metsulfuron methyl, or mixtures thereof.

2. The composition of claim 1 wherein the herbicidally active ingredient comprises atrazine.

3. The composition of claim 1 wherein the pyrethroid insecticidally active ingredient comprises allethrin, barthrin, bifenthrin, bioallethrin, bioresmethrin, biopermethrin, dimethrin, esbiol, furethrin, permethrin, resmethrin, tetramethrin, or mixtures thereof.

4. The composition of claim 1 wherein the pyrethroid insecticidally active ingredient has the structural formula:

5. The composition of claim 1 wherein the granular substrate comprises fertilizer granules, inert carriers, or mixtures thereof.

6. The composition of claim 1 wherein the granular substrate comprises an inert carrier.

7. The composition of claim 6 wherein the inert carrier comprises corn cobs, peanut hulls, coffee bean husks, pelletized limestone, dolomite, biological granules or mixtures thereof.

8. The composition of claim 1 wherein the granular substrate comprises a fertilizer granule.

9. The composition of claim 1 wherein the tackifier comprises cottonseed oil, linseed oil, soybean oil, canola oil, coconut oil, corn oil, fish oil, hydrogenated vegetable oils, fatty acid esters, olive oil, palm oil, paraffin wax, peanut oil, safflower oil, mineral oil, greater than 10 carbon alkenes, polymerized alpha olefins, oxidized plant oils, oil polymerizates, methyl oleate, pine oil, petrolatum, PPG mono oleate, rape oil methyl ester, or mixtures thereof.

10. The composition of claim 1 wherein the tackifier is of the formula:

wherein n ranges from about 2 to about 20.

11. The composition of claim 10 wherein n ranges from about 4 to about 6.

12. The composition of claim 10 wherein the tackifier is polybutene having a molecular weight of about 370.

13. The composition of claim 12 wherein n=4.59.

14. The composition of claim 10 wherein the tackifier is polybutene having a molecular weight of about 430.

15. The composition of claim 14 wherein n=5.66.

16. The composition of claim 10 wherein the tackifier is polybutene having a molecular weight of about 440.

17. The composition of claim 16 wherein n=5.84.

18. The composition of claim 10 wherein the tackifier is polybutene having a molecular weight of about 490.

19. The composition of claim 18 wherein n=6.73.

20. The composition of claim 1 wherein the pesticidally active ingredient is atrazine and the insecticidally active ingredient is bifenthren.

21. The composition of claim 1 wherein the pesticidally active ingredient is atrazine, the insecticidally active ingredient is bifenthren, and the tackifier is polybutene.

22. A composition comprising:

i. a granular substrate;

ii. a coating layer over the granular substrate, the coating layer comprising a blend of

a) a non-cyano containing pyrethroid insecticidally active ingredient, and

b) a non-polar tackifier,

wherein polar solvent is absent from the coating layer; and

iii. a small grain or powdered pesticidally active ingredient adhered on the coating layer, wherein the small grain or powdered pesticidally active ingredient is atrazine or metsulfuron methyl, or mixtures thereof.

23. The composition of claim 22 wherein the pyrethroid insecticidally active ingredient has the structural formula:

24. The composition of claim 22 wherein the tackifier is of the formula:

wherein n ranges from about 2 to about 20.

25. The composition of claim 24 wherein n ranges from about 4 to about 6.

26. The composition of claim 22 wherein the pesticidally active ingredient is atrazine and the insecticidally active ingredient is bifenthren.

27. The composition of claim 22 wherein the pesticidally active ingredient is atrazine, the insecticidally active ingredient is bifenthren, and the tackifier is polybutene.

28. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the herbicidally active ingredient is metsulfuron methyl.

29. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the herbicidally active ingredient is metsulfuron methyl and the insecticidally active ingredient is bifenthren.

30. The composition of claim 22 , wherein the pesticidally active ingredient is atrazine.

31. The composition of claim 22 , wherein the pesticidally active ingredient is metsulfuron methyl.
