What problem is addressed by the project?
The project contributed to developing innovative multifunctional adjuvants with a cross-curricular mechanism of action supporting biological effectiveness and ensuring the stability of action of agrochemicals - mainly herbicides, fungicides and insecticides, applied at reduced doses under changing technical and environmental conditions while ensuring safety for humans and the environment. The ingredients of these adjuvants are characterised by high safety for the environment, especially for bees and aquatic organisms, and rapid biodegradability. The use of innovative adjuvants provides measurable biological benefits - increased efficacy, economic and environmental - the possibility of obtaining high efficacy using doses reduced by 30-50%. The introduction of innovative adjuvants with multifunctional properties into the production process contributes to the improvement of the process and economics of their production through the use of components reducing thermal energy input in the formulation process - from the current 60 degrees C to 20 degrees C, improvement of work safety and environmental protection.
Who uses the project results?
The results of the innovative multifunctional adjuvants developed by our company will mainly benefit agricultural producers.
