Factors influencing agricultural spray deposit structures on hydrophobic surfaces
Abstract
The properties of dried deposits formed by placing drops of a commercial turf grass fungicide spray formulation on smooth, waxy PARAFILM® M surfaces were measured as functions of formulation variables. The deposit structure reveals the extent to which dispersed active ingredient particles are bound to oil droplets in agricultural spray dispersions, before drying. The dilute spray dispersion (herein called Green Emulsion) was a suspoemulsion, …
