Technical Data Sheet

JohnHo* 248

spray adjuvant (Low Surface Tension)            

SPECIALTY FLUIDS - AGRICULTURE

CAS No. 67674-67-3

Description

JohnHo 248 spray adjuvant is a

polyether trisiloxane. In aqueous   solutions, it gives super spreading and does dramatically reduce

surface tension.

Typically, JohnHo 248 spray adjuvant reduces the surface tension of

aqueous agricultural mixtures

significantly. At concentrations as    low as 0.1 percent, JohnHo 248 spray adjuvant reduces surface tension

below 22 mN/m, which produces very rapid wetting and spreading on hard-to-wet surfaces such as   waxy leaves.

JohnHo 248 spray adjuvant is

nonionic in nature, making it useful with a broad range of agrochemical formulations.

Typical Applications

. Crop protection products

. Herbicides

. Insecticides

. Fungicides

. Nutrients and plant growth regulators

Key Features

. Superspreading for exceptional spray coverage of crop and plant surfaces

. Up to 70% spray volume reduction to lower water use and application costs

. Excellent penetration providing better pesticide uptake and efficiency

. Better spray treatment adhesion on crop and plant surfaces

. Rain rinsing resistance to lower pesticide wash-off and waste

. Lower use levels than non-silicone surfactant

. Nonionic

Typical Physical Properties

Usage

. JohnHo 248 spray adjuvant may be used as a component in agrochemical formulations. Although organosilicone surfactants are

subject to hydrolysis under acidic or basic

conditions, optimum performance is

achieved by buffering the formulation to pH 6.5-7.5. Additionally, it is recommended that JohnHo 248 spray adjuvant be used at a

concentration of at least 5%, based on the total formulation.

. JohnHo 248 spray adjuvant, when used as a tank-side adjuvant may be used to improve spray coverage, improve uptake or to allow for a reduction in spray volume. JohnHo 248  spray adjuvant is most effective as a tank-    side adjuvant when spray mixtures are used within 12 hours of preparation.

. JohnHo 248 spray adjuvant has been used successfully in spray applications globally. Typical applications include:

Packing

200L or IBC tank

Storage

Being storage in closed containers

Shelf Life

36 months
