Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION REPORT FOR "WATER DISPENSED AGROCHEMICAL FORMULATIONS, NON-THERAPEUTIC PROCESS FOR COMBATING ANIMAL PARASITES IN AGRICULTURE AND HORTICULTURE, AND PROCESS FOR COMBATING PHYTOPATHOGENIC FUNGI". The present invention relates to novel water-dispersible agrochemical formulations, such as, for example, water-based suspension concentrates of agrochemical active substances, a process for producing such formulations and their use for applying the active substances. Gifts

Systemic agrochemical active substances, especially systemic insecticides and fungicides, need a formulation for the development of the biological effect, which allows the active substances to be absorbed into the target plant / organisms. Normally, therefore, systemic agrochemical active substances are formulated as emulsion concentrate (EC), soluble liquid SL and / or oil-based suspension concentrate (OD). In an EC and SL formulation, the active substance is present in dissolved form, in an OD formulation as a solid. A suspension concentrate, as a rule, is also technically possible. Furthermore, only suspension concentrates are described, and other types of formulations are also understood, in which the active substance is present in a dispersed form in water. If SC formulations are used, however, to obtain a sufficient biological effect, the active substance must be combined with an additive. An additive in this context is a component, which enhances the biological effect of the active substance without itself showing a biological effect. In particular, an additive allows / promotes absorption of the active substance in the leaf (penetration enhancer). A penetration enhancer may be incorporated into the agrochemical active substance formulation (in-can formulation) or added to the spray broth after dilution of the concentrated formulation (tank mix). To prevent dosing errors and to improve user safety when applying agrochemicals, it is advantageous to incorporate penetration enhancers into the formulation. In addition, unnecessary use of extra packaging material for tank mix products is thus avoided. The disadvantage of the aforementioned formulations with penetration enhancers is that particularly in the application to leaves, fruits or other parts of plants in sensitive cultivated plants such as, for example, stone fruit (eg Malus domesticus, Pyrus communis), drupa. (Prunus armeniaca, Prunus domesticus, Prunus perssica), citrus crops, vegetables such as paprika (Capsicum annuum) and melon (Cucumis melo), as well as ornamental plants such as roses after application and drying of the liquid. sprayed, the residue from the spray broth can lead to plant damage. Some water-based suspension concentrates of agrochemical active substances that contain penetration enhancers and show minor plant damage are already known. In this way, in Pest. Manag. Know. 58, 82-933 (2002) describe triglyceride ethoxylates (Agnique® RSO Series), which are recommended as tank mix penetration enhancers for systemic water-soluble agrochemical active substances. An advantage of such auxiliary agents is the compatibility of plants with weeds. This is characterized by a non-influence of photosynthesis, which is advantageous for the systemic action of mobile phloem active substances such as glyphosate. The concentrations of spray broth required for sufficient absorption of the active substance were, however, in this case between 1 and 10 g / l, which is not reconcilable with an in-can formulation.

US2002 / 0155954 mentions triglyceride ethoxylates which decrease the spray broth surface tension to less than 40 mN / m as an additive. In this application, triglyceride ethoxylates are described in an in-can formulation. The formulations described herein contain xanthan gum as a thickener (commercially available, for example, as Kel Kel S® from CP Kelco).

EP-A 1905300 describes suspension concentrates containing triglyceride ethoxylate. The disadvantage of these formulations is that by adding larger proportions of polyalkoxyalkyl triglycerides to the aqueous formulation, the viscosity of the formulation increases. In the case of surfactant concentrations significantly above critical mycelial concentrations, surfactant molecules assemble into foreground structures, which leads to higher viscosity. In addition to these surfactant molecules, a certain amount of a thickener (generally xanthan gum is used for this purpose) is added to the suspension concentrates. This thickener is necessary to prevent sedimentation of active substance particles after longer storage. High viscosity - caused by a supramolecular tensor-active structure - is not sufficient to prevent the sedimentation process. One problem with this procedure is that often only a very small amount of thickener can be added, otherwise too high viscosities are produced. Too much thickener leads to suspension concentrates showing phase separation in the vial within the shortest time, which is problematic for the user as formulations do not drain well from the vial.

Accordingly, the object of the present invention is to provide stable, storable water-based suspension concentrates which contain penetration enhancers without significant phase separation following storage.

It has been found that water-dispersible agrochemical formulations containing a penetration enhancer, especially of the polyalkoxy triglyceride class and a thickener of the anionic polysaccharide class, which contain as a repetitive basic unit in the main chain four sugar molecules (glucose, glucuronic acid , glucose, rhamnose) solve this problem. The thickeners described herein are known to the petroleum and concrete industries, however, are unknown in plant protection preparations formulations.

Therefore, the object of the present invention are liquid suspension concentrates, containing at least one solid agrochemical active substance at room temperature and at least one penetration enhancer and at least one thickener of the anionic polysaccharide class, which contains as a basic unit repetitive in the main chain, four sugar molecules (glucose, glucuronic acid, glucose, rhamnose) as the basic repetitive unit in the main chain.

In the case of the compositions according to the invention, these are preferably liquid suspension concentrates containing - at least one solid agrochemical active substance at room temperature and - at least one polyalkoxy triglyceride class penetration enhancer - at least one anionic polysaccharide thickener, which contains four basic sugar molecules (glucose, glucuronic acid, glucose, rhamnose) as the basic repetitive basic unit in the main chain.

Particularly preferably, the compositions according to the invention are liquid suspension concentrates containing - at least one solid agrochemical active substance at room temperature and - at least one penetration enhancer of the polyalkoxy triglyceride class , where the triglyceride is of vegetable origin, - at least one thickener of the anionic polysaccharide class, which contains four basic sugar molecules (glucose, glucuronic acid, glucose, rhamnose) as the basic repetitive unit in the main chain. main chain.

In addition, it has been found that water-based suspension concentrates according to the invention can be produced by - at least one solid agrochemical active substance at room temperature and - at least one penetration and polyalkoxy promoter in whereas triglyceride is of plant origin, - at least one thickener of the anionic polysaccharide class, which contains four basic sugar units (glucose, glucuronic acid, glucose, rhamnose) as the basic chain repetitive basic unit , are mixed with each other and then the resulting suspension is eventually milled.

Furthermore, it has been found that preferably water-based suspension concentrates according to the invention can be produced by - at least one solid agrochemical active substance at room temperature and - at least one triglyceride class penetration enhancer - At least one thickener of the anionic polysaccharide class, which contains as a repetitive basic unit in the main chain, four sugar molecules (glucose, glucuronic acid, glucose, rhamnose) as a repetitive basic unit in the main chain are mixed with one another. the others and then the resulting suspension is eventually ground.

Finally, it has been found that suspension concentrates according to the invention are very well suited for the application of agrochemical active substances present on plants and / or their habitat. It is surprising that with the compositions according to the invention formulations can be developed which have a sufficient viscosity although they contain only a small amount of thickener.

Furthermore, it is extremely surprising that the suspension concentrates according to the invention have very good stability even after storage at elevated temperatures. The low concentrations of thickener applied should lead, according to the invention, to phase separation.

Furthermore, it has been surprisingly found that the compositions according to the invention show a better biological effect than known xanthan gum formulations. It was not foreseeable in the art that the absorption of the active substance could be influenced by the thickener.

Finally, it is mentioned as surprising that while the compositions according to the invention lead to higher absorption, plant compatibility does not worsen through the compositions according to the invention. In the following, preferred embodiments of the object of the invention are described.

Compositions according to the invention containing at least one herbicidal active substance (= herbicidal composition) have excellent herbicidal efficacy against a broad spectrum of economically important mono- and dicotyledonous weeds. In this case, it is irrelevant whether the substances are applied in the pre-seeding, preemergence or postemergence process.

Individually, for example, some representatives of mono- and dicotyledonous weed flora are mentioned, which may be controlled by the compounds according to the invention, without mentioning a limitation to certain species.

On the monocotyledon species side, spontaneous cereals such as wheat, barley, rye and triticale are well covered, as well as, for example, Apera spica venti, Avena spp., Brachiaria spp., Digitaria spp. , Lolium spp., Echinochloa spp., Panicum spp., Phalaris spp., Poa spp., Setaria spp., As well as Bromus spp., Such as Bromus catharticus, Bromus erectus, Bromus tectorum and Bromus japonicuse Cyperus species from the annual group and from the perennial species side, Agropyron, Cynodon, Imperata and Sorghum, as well as perennial Cyperus species.

In the case of dicotyledonous weed species, the spectrum of action extends to species such as, for example, Abutilon spp., Amaranthus spp., Chrysanthemum spp., Galium spp., Ipomoea spp., Kochia spp., Lamium spp., Matricaria spp., Pharbitis spp., Polygonum spp., Sida spp., Sinapis spp., Solanum spp., Stellaria spp., Veronica spp. and Viola spp., Xanthium spp., Papaver rhoeas spp., Centaurea spp. on the annual side, as well as Convolvulus, Cirsium, Rumex and Artemisia spp. among perennial weeds species.

If the herbicidal compositions according to the invention are applied to the soil surface prior to germination, then either the emergence of weed seedlings is completely prevented or weeds grow to the leaf germination stage, however, afterwards they adjust their growth and finally, after the course of three to four weeks, die completely.

In the application of the active substances on the green parts of the plants in the postemergence process, there is also a very rapid stop of growth after treatment and weeds remain in the growth stage present at the moment of application or die completely after over time, so that harmful weed competition for cultivated plants is eliminated very early and effectively.

The herbicidal compositions according to the invention are noted for their rapid onset and long lasting herbicidal effect. The resistance of the active substances to rain in the combinations according to the invention is generally favorable. By combining the active substances according to the invention, a considerable reduction in the amount of application required of the active substances is allowed.

Herbicidal compositions according to the invention have excellent herbicidal efficacy against a broad spectrum of mono- and dicotyledonous weeds, including species that are resistant to herbicidal active substances such as glyphosate, glufosinate, atrazine or imidazolinone herbicides.

Although the herbicidal compositions according to the invention have excellent herbicidal activity against mono- and dicotyledonous weeds, the cultivated plants are very little damaged, if any.

Furthermore, the compositions according to the invention have partially enhanced growth regulating properties in cultivated plants. They intervene in the plant's own metabolism by regulating it, and thus can be used to visibly influence plant constituents and to facilitate harvesting, such as by causing dissection and stunting of growth. In addition, they are also suitable for general control and inhibition of unwanted vegetative growth without killing plants. Inhibition of vegetative growth plays a very important role in mono- and dicotyledonous crops, as they can reduce or completely prevent crop losses in storage.

Due to their herbicidal and plant growth regulating properties, the compositions according to the invention may be used to combat weeds in genetically-grown cultivated plants or by mutation selection. Such cultivated plants generally stand out for particular advantageous properties, such as resistances against herbicidal compositions or resistances against plant diseases or plant disease pathogens, such as certain insects or microorganisms such as fungi, bacteria or viruses. Other particular properties relate, for example, to material harvested with respect to quantity, quality, storage, composition and special constituent substances. Thus, for example, transgenic plants with high starch content or modified starch quality or those with a different fatty acid composition from the harvested material are known. Conventional methods for the production of new plants, which have modified properties compared to existing plants hitherto consist, for example, of classical cultivation processes and mutant production (see, for example, US 5,162,602; US 4,761 .373; US 4,443,971). Alternatively, it is possible to produce new plants with modified properties with the aid of genetic processes (see, for example, EP-A-0221044, EP-A-0131624). For example, they have been described in several cases. - genetic modifications of crop plants for the purpose of modifying synthesized starch in plants (for example, WO 92/11376, WO 92/14827, WO 91/19806), - transgenic crop plants which show resistance against other herbicides, against sulfonylureas (EP-A-0257993, US-A-5013659), against glyphosate (Round-up Ready © varieties), against glufosinate (Liberty link © varieties) or against imidazolinones, - transgenic rapeseed plants, for example , imidazolinone-resistant rapeseed varieties, Round-up Ready rapeseed (RR rapeseed) or Liberty link © rapeseed (LL rapeseed), - transgenic crop plants, capable of producing Bacillus thuringiensis toxins (Bt toxins), which make plants resistant to certain parasites (EP-A-0142924, EP-A-0193259), - transgenic crop plants with modified fatty acid composition (WO 91/13972).

Numerous molecular biology techniques with which new transgenic plants with modified properties can be produced are in principle known; see, for example, Sambrook et al., 1989, Molecular Cloning, A Laboratory Manual, 2nd edition, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, Cold Spring Harbor, NY; or Winnacker "Gene und Klone", VCH Weinheim 2nd Edition 1996 or Christou, "Trends in Plant Science" 1 (1996) 423-431).

For such genetic manipulations, nucleic acid molecules may be introduced into plasmids, which allow for mutagenesis or sequence modification by recombination of DNA sequences. With the aid of the standard procedures mentioned above, for example, base exchanges may be effected, partial sequences removed or natural or synthetic sequences added. To link the DNA fragments together, adapters or ligands may be added to the fragments. Production of plant cells with reduced activity of a gene product can be obtained, for example, by expressing at least one corresponding antisense RNA, by positive sense RNA to achieve a cossupression effect or by expression of at least one correspondingly constructed ribozyme that specifically dissociates the transcripts from the gene product mentioned above.

To this end, DNA molecules comprising the entire coding sequence of a gene product may be used, including any flanking sequences that may be present, as well as DNA molecules comprising only parts of the coding sequence, and these parts must be be long enough to cause an antisense effect on the cells. It is also possible to use DNA sequences, which have a high degree of homology to the coding sequences of a gene product, but are not completely identical.

In the expression of nucleic acid molecules in plants, the synthesized protein may be located in each desired compartment of the plant cell. But to obtain localization in a certain compartment, for example, the coding region can be linked with DNA sequences, which ensure localization in a certain compartment. Such sequences are known to the skilled artisan (see, for example, Braun et al., EMBO J. 11 (1992), 3219-3227; Wolter et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 85 (1988), 846-850; Sonnewald et al., Plant J. 1 (1991), 95-106).

Transgenic plant cells can be regenerated to whole plants by known techniques. In the case of transgenic plants, these may be mainly plants of any desired plant species, ie both monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous plants. Thus, it is possible to obtain transgenic plants, which have modified properties through overexpression, suppression or inhibition of homologous (= natural) genes or gene sequences or expression of heterologous (= foreign) genes or gene sequences.

In addition, the object of the present invention is also a process for combating the growth of unwanted plants (e.g. weeds), preferably in plant crops such as cereals (e.g. wheat, barley, rye, oats, crosses). such as triticale, rice, maize, millet), beet, sugar cane, rapeseed, cotton and soy, particularly preferably in monocotyledon crops such as cereals, for example wheat, barley, rye, oats such crossings, such as triticale, rice, maize and millet or in dicotyledonous crops, where one or more type (A) herbicides with one or more type (B) herbicides are applied together or separately, e.g. emergence, post-emergence or pre- and post-emergence, on plants, for example weeds, plant parts, plant seeds or over the area in which plants grow, for example in the cultivation area.

Plant crops can also be genetically modified or obtained by mutation selection.

Herbicidal compositions according to the invention may also be applied non-selectively to combat the growth of unwanted plants, for example in crop crops, at roadside, squares, industrial facilities or railway facilities.
