About TopFilm
Adjuvants are tank additives that a grower or applicator uses to optimise
pesticide applications. The old technology usually uses synthetic or petroleum
based oils, which penetrate and seal the plant surface, causing injury to crops,
and are used in huge volumes.
This new Technology features TopFilm™, an adjuvant made from natural patented
grain materials called
Biocar®, which are microsponges
that absorb pesticides and other plant treatments and offer coating properties
to protect the application and optimise pesticide delivery. Biocar®
is patented under US Patent #
5,888,500 and European Patent
#PCT/US97/17605.
TopFilm™ is a suspo-emulsion (SE) of
Biocar® that absorbs
the active ingredient during the tank mixing and deposits a natural film of
microsponges that stick the treatment to the leaf surface, flower or fruit
during spraying. The natural film dries within 10 - 30 minutes and enhances
rain-fastness, completely stopping wash off of the product by rain or
irrigation. The layer of sponges absorb the pesticide and release it
slowly into the plant increasing the efficacy of all treatments.
Approved Adjuvant List
Number: A0670
This dramatically different adjuvant is cereal based (not oil based) and can be
mixed with any pesticide to improved rain-fastness and herbicide delivery,
resulting in increased efficacy and less pesticide use. Reduced frequency of
application saves you money while improving weed control or crop performance.
