Pesticidal compositions
View Patent ↗Stabilized mixtures of pesticides are disclosed.
1. A composition comprising:
a. a pesticide having an amine functional group >C—NR 1 R 2 wherein R 1 is H or a (C 1 -C 6 ) alkyl, and R 2 is H or a (C 1 -C 6 ) alkyl;
b. a carboxylic acid of the formula RC(═O)OH wherein R is a C 2 -C 36 alkyl, which may have one or more unsaturated carbon bonds, and which may have one or more OH groups, and which may have one or more C(═O)OH groups; and
c. a resolved, epimerizable, pyrethroid.
2. A composition according to claim 1 wherein said pesticide is spinosad or spinetoram or mixtures thereof.
3. A composition according to claim 2 wherein said carboxylic acid is oleic acid, malic acid, or mixtures thereof.
4. A composition according to claim 3 wherein said pyrethroid is gamma-cyhalothrin, alpha-cypermethrin, or mixtures thereof.
5. A pesticidal composition comprising:
a carboxylic acid of the formula RC(═O)OH wherein R is a C 2 -C 36 alkyl, which may have one or more unsaturated carbon bonds, and which may have one or more OH groups, and which may have one or more C(═O)OH groups; and
pesticidal compounds consisting of
a first compound selected from spinosad or spinetoram;
a second compound selected from gamma-cyhalothrin, alpha-cypermethrin.
