Lo-249

Countertype Product: Silwet 429
CAS NO.:
Lo-249 is a new, hydrolytically stable silicone adjuvant with a broad pH stability range.
It is an excellent candidate for formulators to consider for the enhancement of the efficacy of glyphosate herbicide
products. It provides excellent penetration performance for glyphosate herbicides as well as extended stability in the
4-9 pH range. This product is a cost-effective penetrant to consider for a replacement of Tallow Amine Ethoxylates (TAE)
and other commercial surfactants used as adjuvants for the delivery of glyphosate in herbicide applications, in addition, it
is used at much lower rates compared to conventional surfactants formulated in glyphosate products. 
Features

• Provides effective penetration of gyphosates through the eafl cuticles
• Enhances efficacy of gyphosates
• Up to 10 times lower use rates than TAE surfactant adjuvants
• Excellent carity and phase stability
• Stabiity with glyphosate formulations in the 4-9 PH range

Typical properties

• Active Content percent: 100%
• Appearance: Colorless to pale yellow clear liquid
• Cloud Point (0.1 wt%) : ＞100 ℃
• Pour point: ＜-30 ℃
• Viscosity at 25°C (77°F): 100-150 cSt
• Surface tension (0.1% aq.): 32-40 mN/m
• PH Stabiity: 4-9

Use rates
Lo-249 is a cost-effective penetrant for use in glyphosate herbicide products formulated between pH4-9. It can be added
as component directly to such formulations to provide enhanced penetration and efficacy (weed contro)
Many gyphosae formulations contain about 10-15% TAE surfactants to provide required weed contro. Lo-249 can provide
adequate or better contro with only 3%-5% use rates, which corresponds to a significant 10% reduction of total formulation
volume.
Storage
Store in dry and ventilation place under 40℃, remain original package cosed.
