Agrosurf ME100 Microemulsions as opposed to macroemulsions give emulsions of very small particle size and very good stability. Typically when a microemulsion is achieved the end product is a clear solution which sometimes has a slight bloom. One main advantage of microemulsions is that they are easily dilutable to the required concentration.

Functions: Surfactant

Labeling Claims: Foreign matter-free, VOC-free

Microemulsions as opposed to macroemulsions give emulsions of very small particle size and very good stability. Typically when a microemulsion is achieved the end product is a clear solution which sometimes has a slight bloom. One main advantage of microemulsions is that they are easily dilutable to the required concentration.

This product has been developed to give good micro-emulsions for synthetic pyrethroids such as cypermethrin. A typical production method would to be :

  • Cpermetherin : 10
  • ME100 : 25
  • Water : 65

Simply add all components and add water slowly while mixing. The same levels can be used for Permetherin, Fenvalerate and zeta-
cypermetherin.

The advantges are :

  • Easily dilutable to required strength
  • No VOC
  • High flash point
