Description

 Suspension concentrates for improving root absorption of agrochemical active ingredients

The present invention relates to the improvement of the biological activity of aqueous agrochemical suspension concentrates in soil application by increasing the uptake of active ingredient via the root using suitable adjuvants and their use for controlling noxious insects or phytopathogenic fungi.

Advantage of this approach is that the application rate of the active ingredient can be reduced by the compositions of the invention or an improved effect is achieved at the same rate. In addition, the water consumption can be minimized.

An adjuvant in this context is a component which improves the biological activity of the active ingredients in the compositions according to the invention without exhibiting a biological effect itself. The adjuvants are preferably incorporated into the concentrated formulation of the agrochemical active ingredient (in-can formulation). These ready-to-use formulations help prevent dosage errors and improve the safety of users in the application of agrochemicals. Furthermore, this avoids the unnecessary use of packaging material compared to use in the tank mix process.

Agrochemical active substances can be applied in different ways for controlling harmful organisms. In addition to the foliar treatment, a treatment of the culture substrate can also be carried out, for example by spraying on the ground, casting, side dressing, shower-drenching, overhead drenching or application in the context of an irrigation system (drip irrigation). The culture substrate can be soil, but also special substrates based on peat moss, coconut fibers, rock wool, such as Grodan®, pumice, expanded clay, such as Lecaton® or Lecadan®, clay granules, such as Seramis®, foams, such as Baystrat®, vermiculite, perlite, man-made earth, such as Hygromull®, or combinations of these substrates. All of these culture substrates are referred to below as soil. In addition to a treatment of the culture substrate, another relevant application form is the direct addition of the active ingredient into the water phase surrounding the root, for example in the floating box or paddy field method. By applying active ingredients in or on the soil and directly in the water phase, both soil / water-borne pests are brought into contact with the active ingredient and the uptake of systemic drugs by the roots is initiated. Various formulations are already known in order to improve the action of agrochemical active ingredients in foliar treatment. For example, DE-A 10 129 855 describes oil-based suspension concentrates which improve absorption via the leaf cuticle by adding penetration enhancers. Furthermore, water-based suspension concentrates which improve foliar uptake have also become known. For example, WO 05/036963 describes formulations of this type which, in addition to certain fungicides, also contain at least one penetration promoter. The penetrants described in these formulations suitable for foliar application are defined as being able to penetrate the aqueous spray mixture and / or the spray coating into the cuticle of the plant and thereby increase the tissue mobility (mobility) of active ingredients in the cuticle. The method described in the literature (Baur et al., 1997, Pesticide Science 51, 131-152) can be used to determine this property. In addition, the mechanisms that describe the uptake of drugs by the leaf cuticle are known. The following publications are mentioned by way of example: HuIl, HM (1970) Residue Reviews 31, 1-150; Hartley, GS, Graham-Bryce, IL (1980) Academic Press, London; Price, CE, Anderson, NH (1985) Pestic. Sei., 16, 369-377; Kirkwood, RC (1993) Pestic. Be. 38, 93-102; Holloway, PJ, Rees, RT, Stock, D. (eds.) Springer-Verlag, Berlin (1994); Schönherr J., Baur P. (1994) Pesticide Sci. 42, 185-208. The use of adjuvants to improve the mobility of active ingredients in soil systems is also known. Griffith and Miller (McMullan, PM (ed.) 1998, Adjuvante for Agrochemicals, Proceedings of the 5th International Symposium on Adjuvants for Agrochemicals (1998), Memphis, USA p 233-239 and 291-297) describe that the addition of surfactants affect the interaction between soil minerals and water and thereby improve the penetration of water and the transported substances. Various nonionic surfactants are named for this purpose. Others describe how surfactants, which lower the surface tension of the spray mixture, improve penetration into the soil. Howell (McMullan, PM (ed.) 1998, Adjuvante for Agrochemicals, Proceedings of the 5th International Symposium on Adjuvants for Agrochemicals (1998), Memphis, USA p 247-253) describes the influence of trisilane surfactants, which have a static surface tension below 30 mN / m bring on the horizontal and vertical mobility of permethrin in different soil types. Improvements in capillary action result in more and smaller pores in the soil. Chung (Pesticide Science (1993), 38 (2-3), p.250-252) describes a similar mechanism for improving the effect of atrazine by adding adjuvants.

The influence of adjuvants on the uptake of agrochemical active ingredients via the root system, however, has not been described. Also in the literature remain the

Recording by the root system and the related mechanisms unmentioned (Plant roots growth, activity and interactions with soils, Peter Gregory, Blackwell Publishing (2006)).

It is an object of the present invention to provide agrochemical compositions which contain suitable adjuvants to enhance the uptake of drugs via the root system. These compositions should also have the necessary stability for storage and good biological activity.

The present invention thus relates to the use of suitable adjuvants for increasing the uptake of active ingredients via the root system. The present invention therefore also relates to formulations containing these adjuvants. The subject matter of the present invention is also the use of these adjuvants or agrochemical compositions for improving the action of soil-agrochemical compositions, e.g. by spraying on the ground, casting, side-drenching, shower-drenching, overhead drenching or using an irrigation system and direct application in water to plants that are in direct contact with the water phase. The invention furthermore relates to the use of these formulations for combating soil-borne harmful organisms and leaf pests.

New aqueous suspension concentrates were found containing

at least one solid at room temperature agrochemical active ingredient from the group of insecticides and / or fungicides,

at least one adjuvant,

at least one nonionic surfactant and / or at least one anionic surfactant,

at least one antifreeze and

one or more additives from the group of antifoaming agents, preservatives, antioxidants, spreading agents, dyes and / or

Thickener.

The suspension concentrates according to the invention are referred to as aqueous because they contain virtually no organic solvent, in any case less than 7.5 g / l. A non-ionic surfactants are all commonly used in agrochemical agents substances of this type into consideration. Polyethylene oxide-polypropylene oxide block copolymers, polyethylene glycol ethers of linear alcohols, reaction products of fatty acids with ethylene oxide and / or propylene oxide, polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinylpyrrolidone, copolymers of polyvinyl alcohol and polyvinylpyrrolidone, copolymers of polyvinyl acetate and polyvinylpyrrolidone and copolymers of (meth) acrylic acid and (meth ) Acrylsäureestem, further alkyl ethoxylates and alkylaryl ethoxylates, which may optionally be phosphated and optionally neutralized with bases, polyoxyamine derivatives and nonylphenol ethoxylates.

Suitable anionic surfactants are all substances of this type conventionally usable in agrochemical compositions. Preference is given to alkali metal and alkaline earth metal salts of alkylsulfonic acids or alkylarylsulfonic acids.

Another preferred group of anionic surfactants or dispersants are salts of polystyrenesulfonic acids, salts of polyvinylsulfonic acids, salts of naphthalenesulfonic acid-formaldehyde condensation products, salts of condensation products of naphthalenesulfonic acid, phenolsulfonic acid and formaldehyde and salts of lignosulfonic acid.

As antifreeze all commonly used in agrochemical agents substances of this type come into question. Preference is given to urea, glycerol, propanediol and propylene glycol. The suspension concentrates according to the invention particularly preferably comprise an antifreeze from the group of polyglycerols and polyglycerol derivatives. Polyglycerols and polyglycerol derivatives are described in DE-A 100 23 153. Very particular preference is given to the polyglycerols and polyglycerol derivatives which are marketed under the trade name Synergen GL®.

Optionally, the compositions according to the invention contain further additives from the groups of the foam-inhibiting agents, the preservatives, the antioxidants, the spreading agents, the dyes and / or the thickeners.

Suitable foam-inhibiting substances are all substances customarily usable for this purpose in agrochemical compositions. Preferred are silicone oils and magnesium stearate.

Suitable preservatives are all substances customarily usable for this purpose in agrochemical compositions of this type. Examples which may be mentioned are Preventol® (Bayer AG) and Proxel®. As antioxidants are all commonly used for this purpose in agrochemical agents substances into consideration. Examples include: butylhydroxytoluene (2,6-di-t-butyl-4-methyl-phenol, BHT), propyl gallate, octyl gallate, dodecyl gallate, butylated hydroxyanisole, propyl paraben, sodium benzoate and 4,4 '- (2,3-dimethyltetramethylene) dibrenz-catechin (nordihydroguaiaretic acid). Preference is given to butylhydroxytoluene (2,6-di-t-butyl-4-methyl-phenol, BHT).

Suitable spreading agents are all substances customarily usable for this purpose in agrochemical compositions. Preference is given to polyether- or organo-modified polysiloxanes.

Suitable dyes are all substances customarily usable for this purpose in agrochemical compositions. Examples include titanium dioxide, carbon black, zinc oxide and blue pigments as well as permanent red FGR.

Suitable thickeners are all substances of this type conventionally usable in agrochemical compositions. Preference is given to silicates (such as, for example, Atagel® 50 from Engelhard) or xanthan gum (such as, for example, Kelzane® S from Kelko).

An adjuvant in the context of the present invention is a substance which, in the test system described below, brings about an improvement in the uptake of agrochemical active ingredient via the root in the plant:

A representative number (more than 40) seeds of a selected crop (tomato plants, variety Rentita) are seeded individually in cavities of Styrofoam perforated trays filled with peat culture substrate based special soil. The floatable trays are then exposed in containers with nutrient solution based on 0.1% Bayfolan ^® and until reaching the desired plant size at 25 ° C, 80% rel. Humidity and 12 hours exposure (Na steam lamps) cultivated. The active substance and (potential) adjuvant-containing solutions are added directly to the nutrient solution of individual containers before inserting the trays. Tomato sprouts are harvested 12 and 19 days after treatment and extracted with acetonitrile: water in the ratio 80:20 (v / v) and then the content of imidacloprid and the relevant degradation products is determined quantitatively by HPLC - MS / MS in a suitable manner.

For example, the extracted samples are analyzed using an Applied Biosystems API 4000 QTrap HPLC-MS / MS in MRM mode. The HPLC system consists of an Agilent 1 100 pump, column oven, degassing unit and a CTC-PAL autosampler. Samples are chromatographed on a Phenomenex GEMINI 3 μm column (length 50 mm, inner diameter 2.1 mm) in reversed phase mode with gradient elution (eluent from acetonitrile / water / 0.1% formic acid). MS conditions for quantitation: 256.1> 209.2 (ESI +; imidacloprid) and 155.9> 111.9 (ESI- 6-CNA). The peak integrals were evaluated via an external standard using the calibration curve (required correlation coefficient r> 0.99). Matrix effects are accounted for by adding a known amount of analyte to an untreated sample. Quantification limit = 1 ng / ml for each analyte.

4 liters of nutrient solution are used per box. The concentration of imidacloprid is 0.1 μg imidacloprid / ml nutrient solution (0.1 ppm). The concentrations of the tested adjuvants in the nutrient solution are between 2.5 μg / ml and 0.1 mg / ml (2.5 and 100 ppm).

As a control, the same test is performed without the addition of a potential adjuvant. When using the adjuvants according to the invention shows in this test compared to the control by at least 20% increased drug absorption.

In this test, the root of the plant is only in contact with the nutrient solution. This excludes the possibility that other properties of the adjuvants, such as distribution in the culture substrate, concentration profiles, etc., may influence the uptake via the root.

It has also been found that the compositions according to the invention can be prepared by mixing the components together and optionally grinding the resulting suspension. The invention therefore furthermore relates to a process for the preparation of the compositions according to the invention, comprising mixing

at least one solid at room temperature agrochemical active ingredient from the group of insecticides and / or fungicides,

at least one adjuvant,

at least one nonionic surfactant and / or at least one anionic surfactant,

- at least one antifreeze and

one or more additives from the groups of foam-inhibiting agents, preservatives, antioxidants, spreading agents, dyes and / or thickeners.

and, if necessary, grinding the resulting suspension. It can be described as extremely surprising that the suspension concentrates according to the invention have a positive influence on the uptake of agrochemical active ingredients via the root system. Based on the properties of the plant root described in the literature, this was not to be expected.

It is also surprising that the adjuvants selected by means of the described test system cause comparable effects in the more complex soil or other culture substrates.

Surprisingly, it should further be noted that the effects of the various adjuvants do not correlate with the lowering of the static surface tension of the spray mixture and consequently do not depend on the mobility in the soil.

It is furthermore surprising that the adjuvants which improve the uptake via the root system do not necessarily increase the uptake via the leaf cuticle, which indicates deviating mechanisms of action.

Furthermore, it is surprising to note that the use of polyglycerol as antifreeze, although no intrinsic effect on uptake via the root system has been found, exhibits a synergistic effect in combination with the adjuvants of the invention.

Finally, it is extremely surprising that the suspension concentrates according to the invention have very good stability. The applied adjuvants, as well as the dispersants of a water-based suspension concentrate, have surface active properties, which normally results in competition with the dispersants. This leads to destabilization of the suspension concentrate, especially at high storage temperature or after storage under changing temperature conditions. The very good stability of the suspension concentrates according to the invention can be determined by e.g. Dispersion stability, particle size distribution or viscosity of the formulations describe.

In the following, preferred embodiments of the subject invention will be described.

The advantageous effect of the formulations of the invention is given in principle in all agrochemical active ingredients, but especially in insecticidal agents from the classes of neonicotinoids, pyrethroids, butenolides, ketoenols, fiproles, anthranilamides, the Mectine, the spinosyn, the organophosphates and the carbamate.

The compositions of the invention may further contain synergists. Synergists are compounds which increase the effect of the active ingredients without the added synergist itself having to be active.

The compositions of the invention may further contain inhibitors which reduce degradation of the active agent after use.

The application is done in a custom-adapted formulation. The treatment according to the invention of the plants and plant parts with the compositions is carried out by soil treatment, e.g. in the species listed at the beginning.

As already mentioned above, according to the invention all plants can be treated. In a preferred embodiment, wild or conventional biological

Breeding methods, such as crossing or protoplast fusion obtained plant species and

Treated plant varieties and their parts. In a further preferred embodiment, transgenic plants and plant cultivars which have been obtained by genetic engineering methods, if appropriate in combination with conventional methods (Genetically Modified Organisms) are treated. It is particularly preferred according to the invention to treat plants of the respective commercially available or in use plant cultivars. Plant varieties are understood as meaning plants having new traits which have been bred by conventional breeding, by mutagenesis or by recombinant DNA techniques. These can be varieties, biotypes and genotypes.

Depending on the plant species or plant cultivars, their location and growth conditions (soils, climate, vegetation period, diet), the treatment according to the invention may also give rise to superadditive ("synergistic") effects. Thus, for example, reduced application rates and / or enhancements of the spectrum of action and / or enhancement of the effect of the compositions of the invention, better plant growth, increased tolerance to high or low temperatures, increased tolerance to dryness or against water or Bodensalzgehalt, increased flowering, easier harvesting , Acceleration of ripeness, higher crop yields, higher quality and / or higher nutritional value of the harvested products, higher shelf life and / or workability of the harvested products possible, which go beyond the actual expected effects.

The preferred plants or plant varieties to be treated according to the invention to be treated include all plants which, as a result of the genetic engineering modification, obtained genetic material which gives these plants particularly advantageous valuable properties ("traits"). Examples of such properties are better plant growth, increased tolerance to high or low temperatures, increased tolerance to dryness or to bottoms salt, increased flowering, easier harvesting, acceleration of ripeness, higher crop yields, higher quality and / or higher nutritional value of the harvested products , higher shelf life and / or workability of the harvested products. Further and particularly emphasized examples of such properties are an increased defense of the plants against animal and microbial pests, as against insects, mites, phytopathogenic fungi, bacteria and / or viruses as well as an increased tolerance of the plants to certain herbicidal active substances. Examples of transgenic plants are the important crops such as cereals (wheat, rice), corn, soybeans, potatoes, sugar beets, tomatoes, peas and other vegetables, cotton, tobacco, oilseed rape and fruit plants (with the fruits apples, pears, citrus fruits and Grapes), with special emphasis on maize, soya, potato, cotton, tobacco and oilseed rape. Traits that are particularly emphasized are the increased defense of the plants against insects, arachnids, nematodes and snails by toxins produced in the plants, in particular those which are produced by the genetic material from Bacillus thuringiensis (eg by the genes CryΙA (a) , CryΙA (b), CryΙA (c), CryllA, CrylHA, CryIIIB2, Cry9c Cry2Ab, Cry3Bb and CrylF and their combinations) are produced in the plants (hereinafter "Bt plants"). Traits also highlight the increased resistance of plants to fungi, bacteria and viruses by systemic acquired resistance (SAR), systemin, phytoalexins, elicitors and resistance genes and correspondingly expressed proteins and toxins. Traits which are furthermore particularly emphasized are the increased tolerance of the plants to certain herbicidally active compounds, for example imidazolinones, sulfonylureas, glyphosate or phosphinotricin (eg "PAT" gene). The genes which confer the desired properties ("traits") can also occur in combinations with one another in the transgenic plants. Examples of "Bt plants" are maize varieties, cotton varieties, soybean varieties and potato varieties which are sold under the trade names YIELD GARD® (eg corn, cotton, soya), KnockOut® (eg maize), StarLink® (eg maize), Bollgard® ( Cotton), Nucotn® (cotton) and NewLeaf® (potato). Examples of herbicide-tolerant plants are maize varieties, cotton varieties and soybean varieties, which are sold under the trade names Roundup Ready® (tolerance to glyphosate eg corn, cotton, soy), Liberty Link® (tolerance to phosphinotricin, eg rapeseed), IMI® (tolerance against imidazolinone) and STS® (tolerance to sulfonylureas eg corn). As herbicide-resistant (conventionally grown on herbicide tolerance) plants are also sold under the name Clearfield® varieties (eg corn). Of course, these statements also apply to future or future marketed plant varieties with these or future developed genetic traits.

The plants listed can be treated particularly advantageously erfϊndungsgemäß with the compositions of the invention. The preferred ranges given above also apply to the treatment of these plants. Particularly emphasized is the plant treatment with the compositions specifically listed in the present text.

Determination of the efficiency of various adjuvants for root absorption of agrochemical active ingredients (imidacloprid)

Forty-five seeds of tomato plants, variety Rentita, were grown individually in cavities of Styrofoam

Potted trays, filled with special potting soil based on peat culture substrate. The floatable floats were then placed in containers with nutrient solution based on 0.1%

Bayfolan ^® exposed and until reaching the desired plant size at 25 ° C, 80% rel.

Humidity and 12 hours exposure cultivated. The intended solutions were given before inserting the trays directly into the nutrient solution of individual boxes. Tomato sprouts were harvested 12 and 19 days after treatment, extracted and analyzed for imidacloprid content by HPLC-MS / MS.

The adjuvant according to the invention was defined as those substances which increased the absorption by more than 20% compared to the control.

Table 1: Improvement of imidacloprid uptake in tomato plants after addition of 0.008 mg imidacloprid and 8 mg adjuvant per plant. When mixtures were added, 8 mg each.

Preparation Examples

To prepare a suspension concentrate, all the liquid components are first mixed together. In the next step, the solids are added and stirred until a homogeneous suspension is formed. The homogeneous suspension is first subjected to a coarse and then a fine grinding, so that one contains a suspension in which 90% of the solid particles have a particle size below 10 microns. Then add Kelzan® S and water while stirring at room temperature. There is obtained a homogeneous suspension concentrate.

The following examples illustrate the invention without limiting it in any way. All data are in% by weight.

Table 2c: Compositions of inventive formulations

Comparative example

To prepare a comparative example (suspension concentrate with surfactant which is not an adjuvant according to the invention, here Geropon® SDS, see also Table 1), all the liquid components are first mixed together. In the next step, the solids are added and stirred until a homogeneous suspension is formed. The homogeneous suspension is first subjected to a coarse and then a fine grinding, so that one contains a suspension in which 90% of the solid particles have a particle size below 10 microns. Then add Kelzan® S and water while stirring at room temperature. There is obtained a homogeneous suspension concentrate.

Determination of the static surface tension

The measurements were carried out using a commercially available tensiometer from Kruess GmbH (Hamburg / Germany) and using a platinum ring according to OECD guideline No. 115. The measuring vessel and the platinum ring were cleaned with traces of adhering chemicals before being measured with acetone. The platinum ring was additionally cleaned by annealing traces of any surface-active substances. All samples were measured shortly after their preparation. For measurement, the samples were filled at least 1 cm high (without foaming) in the meter. Thereafter, the samples were tempered until they reached the measuring temperature (25 ° C.). The platinum ring was then immersed in the sample (about 5 mm). By lowering the sample table, the platinum ring was then moved out of the sample liquid at a constant speed of 5 mm / min according to OECD guideline no. The necessary traction is measured continuously. The maximum value of the required traction is recorded as the measured value. Then the ring is submerged again under the surface and the measurement is repeated. The test is carried out a total of five times and the average of all measurements reported as surface tension [mN / ra].

Table 4: Static surface tension of formulations according to the invention (27 mg SC (8 mg active ingredient) in 1000 ml water at 25 ^° C.).

Storage stability of the formulations according to the invention

To test the storage stability, 100 ml of formulation were stored for eight weeks under changing temperature conditions (TW) and at 54 ^° C. The changing temperature conditions are 48 hours at 30 ⁰ C, lowering the temperature in 22.5 hours at 2 ⁰ C / hour to - 15 ⁰ C, 75 hours at - 15 ⁰ C, increasing the temperature over 22.5 hours with 2 ⁰ C / hour to 30 ^° C. After storage, the sample is brought to room temperature and dispersibility, particle size and viscosity are checked.

The dispersibility (DISP) is determined by the CIPAC MT 180 method, the particle size (Part) is measured on a Malvern Mastersizer 2000, and the dynamic viscosity (Visk) is measured at 20 s ^"1 on a RheoStress RS 150 from Haake.

TABLE 5 Storage stability of formulations according to the invention

Application experiments with formulations according to the invention

After reaching the cotyledon stage, uniformly grown Paprika plants of the variety 'Feher' are transplanted into 3 liter plastic pots (13.5 x 13.5 x 23.5 cm) with natural soil or coconut fiber substrate. After transplanting the plants at 24 ° C, 70% rel. Humidity and 12h light (Na steam lamps) cultivated. Fertilization and irrigation is done via a drip hose per pot. Fertilizer solutions of approx. 3 x 20 ml per pot are applied daily. The insecticide or insecticide adjuvant drench solution is applied after one day interruption of fertilizer solution administration 29 days after sowing. The volume of drench solution is about 60 ml / pot. The drench solution is applied to the substrate in a circular manner around the shoot base by means of a pipette. The drench solution contains 0.355 mg imidacloprid / plant. 1 day after application of the drench solution, the supply of the plants with water and fertilizer solution is switched on again.

For the efficacy test against Myzus persicae (green peach aphid), pepper plants are infected with a mixed population of Myzus persicae (3-leaf stage, 25 days after sowing, 4 days before the Drench application). To assess the rate of action, the mortality in% 2 days after Drenchapplikation evaluated (30 - 36 days old plants). The results are shown in Tables 6 and 8. To assess the duration of action, 67-day-old plants are inoculated again with Myzus persicae 38 days after drench application as described above, and the mortality in% in the lower and upper half of the shoot is evaluated separately 7 days after inoculation. The results are shown in Table 7. In the selected experimental setup are only female aphids, which settle after reaching the adult stage almost daily a new aphid larva. As a result, an aphid population grows extremely fast.

The number of aphids remaining on a treated plant is critical to rebuilding the aphid population. This leads to significant differences being found in the aphid experiments in the greenhouse only at very low concentrations compared to the practice. The applied amount of active ingredient of 0.355 mg / plant is higher by a factor of 5 than the breaking edge in the greenhouse experiment with the standard formulation without adjuvant. Therefore, a difference of 5% in the effect is significant. In addition, efficiencies above 95% have less than 10 aphids on the treated plant; Anfertörschieden of 5% in this area are clearly visible, since, for example, 10 aphids (90-95% effect) to build up the population much faster than z. B. 2-3 aphid (> 98% effect). For the effectiveness test against Liromyza trifolii (miner fly), adult miner flies are released 6 days after drench application for oviposition on pepper plants (35 days old) under clear-sighted cylinders. 13, 16 and 20 days after drench application, the effect on the hatched larvae in% leaf area is estimated (Use Example 3, Table 9).

To test the effects against Spodoptera exigua (sugar beet column), the third leaf of each pepper plant is cut off 20 days after drench application, placed in a Petri dish and covered with Spododoptera exigua larvae. After the desired time, the effect on the larvae is determined in% mortality (Use Example 4, Table 10).

As a control, the same test is carried out with the comparative example (containing a surfactant which is not an adjuvant according to the invention) and with a commercial formulation without inventive adjuvant (prior art, Admire® 2F, Bayer CropScience). When using the adjuvant according to the invention shows in this test increased mortality compared to the control. The mortality is not necessarily increased at any time, it can also occur only an improvement of the initial effect or the long-term effect.
