Alfalip Extra, SL

Alfalip Extra, SL



Surfactant (adjuvant) to improve coating, retention and penetration of working solutions, which increases the effectiveness of plant protection products

 

Active substance: Nonylphenol ethylate (advanced formulation)

Preparative form: Soluble concentrate (SL)

Packaging: 5 l

 

Mechanism of action

 

Alphalip Extra is an improved formulation of nonylphenol ethyl ester, which belongs to the group of non-ionic surfactants. The adhesive ensures a decrease in the water repellent properties of the weed surface, the coverage of phytophagous insects and pathogenic fungi, increases the contact of plant protection products with harmful objects. Improved wetting of aerial parts of plants (especially those with heavy wax layer or excessive pubescence) and increased retention of the working solution of pesticides contribute to faster and more complete penetration of active substances. This accelerates the action of herbicides, fungicides and insecticides, ensuring their high efficiency and reliability. Surfactant is particularly important during application in dry or cold weather, when weed growth, pest and pathogen activity slows down and the penetration of active substances in the preparations worsens. The use of Alphalip Extra provides resistance to rainfall washout, heavy dew and reduced losses due to evaporation and photodegradation

 

Working fluid consumption rate


Alphalip Extra is used in a concentration of 0.1% (100 ml/100 l of water) at a working fluid consumption rate of 200-300 l/ha. When processing with a smaller volume, use at least 200 ml of Alphalip Extra surfactant per hectare.

 

Advantages

 

  • Provides complete coverage of the leaf surface with the working solution.
  • Improved efficacy of fungicides, insecticides and herbicides.
  • Increased penetration power of pesticides, especially in dry formulations (powders, granules).
  • Stability over a wide range of temperatures and pH environments.

 

PROPERTIES

 

Compatible in tank mixtures with most pesticides, however, prior to preparing the tank mixture, a test mixture is required. It is recommended to use tank mixtures immediately after preparation. Stable over a wide range of temperatures and pH environments.

 

GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS

 

To prepare the working solution, pour the required amount of pesticide during the activated mixing time into the spray tank filled to ½ - . After 15 minutes, add surfactant Alfalip Extra and add water to the full volume of the tank. It is especially recommended for use with herbicides in arid conditions when there are only moderately sensitive weeds in the field to the applied herbicide and weeds that are overgrown or stressed.
