High concentrate fomesafen herbicide formulations
The invention relates to compositions containing the non-salt form of the herbicide fomesafen solubilized with at least one surfactant. Advantages provided by these compositions include higher active ingredient levels, improved cold temperature stability, and enhanced weed control performance.
1. A soluble composition consisting essentially of 10 to 60% by weight fomesafen herbicide in a non-salt form and solubilized with at least one surfactant in an amount of at least 20% by weight, and the balance water,
wherein the at least one surfactant consists essentially of fatty amine alkoxylate, and
wherein the composition is adjusted to a pH range of 2.0-7.5.
2. The composition as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the composition is diluted in water or fertilizer at the range of 0.05-10.0%.
3. The composition as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at one surfactant is present in an amount of at least 30% by weight.
4. The composition as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the fatty amine alkoxylate is an ethoxylated tallow amine.
