  • 31 g lumpy Sapogenat ® T500 were ground on an IKA laboratory mill to a grain size of approx. 200 ⁇ , and in a kitchen mixer with 21.05 g glufosinate ammonium, 16.75 g Sipernat ® 350 (highly disperse silica), 3.04 g Atlox ® Metasperse 150S, 5.10g Genapol ® LRO (paste, 69%), 0.06g Fluowet ® PP, 20g ammonium sulfate and 3g Agrimer ® XLF intimately mixed.
  • This premix was metered by means of a vibrating trough into a melt extrusion apparatus from Thermo-Prism (type twin-screw extruder Eurolab 16mm) and through a multi-hole nozzle with 0.7mm holes extruded.
  • the operating temperature was 25 ° C in the feed area, 65 ° C in the entire mixing and kneading zone, and 60 ° C directly in front of the nozzle.
  • the extrudate solidified within a few seconds after leaving the extruder and was broken into pieces approximately 3 mm long.
  • the dispersibility of the extrudate was measured under conditions according to CIPAC MT174 and was 70% by weight. This method is described in: CIPAC Handbook, Collaborative International Pesticides Analytical Council Ltd 1995: Physico-chemical Methods for Technical and Formulated Pesticides, Vol. F, page 435.
  • Example 6 was repeated with the only difference that glyphosate was used as the active ingredient instead of glufosinate ammonium.
  • the dispersibility of the extrudate was 76% by weight.
  • Genapol ® LRO (paste, 69%) lauryl ethoxyl ether sulfate (Clariant)
  • Genapol ® X-150 isotridecyl alcohol ethoxylate (Clariant) Kaolin ® 1777 clay (Ziegler, Wunsiedel) Atlox Metasperse ® 150S styrene-acrylic acid copolymer (Uniquema) Steamic ® OOS aluminum hydrosilicate (Tale de Luzenac) Morwet ® EFW alkylnaphthalenesulfonic acid derivative (Akzo Nobel) Fluowet ® PP perfluoroalkylphosphonic acid (Clariant)
