About this book
Highlighting means of reducing toxicity, increasing efficacy, lessening environmental impact, and facilitating product development, this work covers up-to-date advances in pesticide delivery technologies. It evaluates pesticide formulations and their use in mixtures that reduce physical incompatibilities in spray tanks and biological anatagonism in the field.
Contents
Microcapsules: selection of coating and microencapsulation processes; microencapsulation of solid particles; application and particle design of insecticide microcapsules. Microparticles: controlled-release of pesticides from microparticles;dispersible microparticles. Granule: controlled-release pesticide formulations from cornstarch; formulation of microbial pesticides; controlled-release granules, with emphasis on lignin-based methods. Devices: long-term controlled-release pesticidedevices; temperature-triggered permeability of capsules and seed coatings; controlled delivery of pesticides through synthetic biodegradable polymer compositions; controlled-release devices for pheromones.
