Adjuvants

The effectiveness of chemical treatment of crops directly depends on how well the preparation is retained on the leaf surface. Most plants possess a natural protective barrier — a waxy coating or dense pubescence — which often causes droplets of the working solution to roll off onto the soil without having the desired impact. To solve this problem, modern agricultural production utilizes stickers — specialized auxiliary substances (adjuvants) that fundamentally change the physicochemical properties of aqueous solutions. 

The Role of Stickers in Agronomy 

The primary task performed by stickers for plants is a significant reduction in the surface tension of water. Thanks to this, droplets do not form into spheres but instead spread across the leaf blade as much as possible, forming a thin, uniform film. This mechanism allows the active ingredients of fungicides, herbicides, and insecticides to penetrate plant tissues much faster and deeper. 

Mechanism of Action and Protection Against Climatic Factors 

In conditions of an unpredictable climate, where sudden precipitation can wash away expensive preparations just an hour after treatment, the use of high-quality surfactants becomes a guarantee for the safety of invested funds. In addition to resistance to rain wash-off, modern adjuvants help slow down the evaporation of the working solution in hot weather. This is especially critical when working with systemic preparations that require additional time for full absorption. Including proven additives in tank mixes allows for the optimization of chemical consumption, increasing its biological activity even when exposed to negative environmental factors.
