Description

  The present invention relates to a liquid agrochemical composition with reduced phytotoxicity and skin irritation to crops.

  Examples of the phytotoxicity and skin irritation to agricultural products caused by agricultural chemicals include factors derived from the active ingredients contained in agricultural chemicals, formulation types, application methods, surfactants contained in agricultural chemical formulations, and solvents. Among them, several papers have been published on pharmaceutical formulation, application method, phytotoxicity to crops caused by surfactants and skin irritation, and they have been presented at symposiums. For example, it has been reported that emulsions generally tend to cause greater phytotoxicity than wettable powders as to the effect of the formulation type on phytotoxicity (Non-patent Document 1). When an agrochemical active ingredient containing an insecticide, fungicide, herbicide, plant regulator, etc. is used in a liquid formulation, for example, an emulsion is an interface between an organic solvent for dissolving or mixing the agrochemical active ingredient and an emulsifier. By adding an activator, an agrochemical emulsion composition having excellent emulsifiability when diluted with water has been produced. However, emulsions have odor, danger, and other safety problems due to the large number of organic solvents to be used and the blending ratio and surfactants as emulsifiers, and selection thereof is not easy. In addition, general emulsion solvents that usually have the highest solvent content include aromatic solvents such as xylol, sorbeso, methylnaphthalene, alkylbenzene, and phenylxylylethane; alcohols such as hexanol and octanol; liquid paraffin, machine Paraffin solvents such as oil and polybutene are used. However, in many cases, phytotoxicity and irritation to the skin are often problematic.

  In addition, liquid agrochemical compositions such as emulsions, aqueous emulsions (EW), liquids, and aqueous suspensions (floorables) are generally preferred dosage forms because of their ease of use, so they are inexpensive and have phytotoxicity and skin irritation. A liquid pesticide composition with reduced water content is desired, and many studies have been made.

  Known methods for reducing phytotoxicity with pesticides include methods based on controlled elution of pesticidal active ingredients and methods based on the addition of phytotoxicity reducing agents. For example, a method for reducing phytotoxicity to rice by impregnating a diphenyl ether herbicide into a glue / gelatin film and gradually releasing agricultural chemical ingredients (Patent Document 1), or a phytotoxicity reducing agent for PCP used for controlling snow rot As a method, sodium carbonate, a method of adding a water-absorbing polymer (Patent Document 2), a method of adding a specific surfactant to an agrochemical formulation (Patent Document 3), and the like are known.

  For example, in the case of an emulsion, a method of adding phospholipid (Patent Document 4), a method of adding gibberellins (Patent Document 5), a paraffinic system having a specific flash point, a naphthenic system, an aromatic system, for reducing chemical damage. A polybutene-based mixed solvent, a method of blending 1-phenyl 1-xylyl ethane (Patent Document 6), and the like are known.

  In order to reduce skin irritation, a method of adding fluorine / polyether co-modified silicone to a skin protective agent (Patent Document 7), an amphoteric interface containing a silicone unit in a hydrophobic group and betaine and an amino acid unit in a hydrophilic group A method of adding an activator (Patent Document 8), a method of adding a cationic surfactant containing a silicone unit as a hydrophobic group and a quaternary ammonium unit as a hydrophilic group (Patent Document 9), a specific quaternary ammonium salt A method of adding a surfactant (Patent Document 10), a method of containing a quaternary ammonium salt and a specific solvent (Patent Document 11), a method of adding a surfactant containing an acyl group (Patent Document 12), etc. Is the method.

  However, none of these show sufficient effects in reducing phytotoxicity, and furthermore, it has been extremely difficult to satisfy phytotoxicity reduction and skin irritation reduction simultaneously.

For these reasons, agrochemical compositions with reduced phytotoxicity to crops and skin irritation to humans, especially liquid-form pesticide compositions such as emulsions, aqueous emulsions (EW), liquids, and aqueous suspensions (flowable). There was a need to develop things.

[Test example]
[Test Example 1] Skin irritation test on rabbits (test animals)
Japanese white rabbits (SPF, KBL-JW, 3 kg) produced by Kitayama Labes Co., Ltd. were purchased and individually housed in a stainless steel bracket cage of 30 x 50 x 50 (H) cm. The sample was acclimated for 1 week or more under humidity of 50 to 65% and artificial lighting (14 hours light, 10 hours dark), and then subjected to the test. For the feed, about 100 g per day of solid feed for rabbit guinea pigs (RC-4) manufactured by Oriental Yeast Co., Ltd. was given, and city water was freely drunk by an automatic water dispenser.

(Test method)
Three days before the start of the test, the hair on the entire back of the rabbit was shaved with an electric clipper for small animals (0.5 mm blade), and three animals with good skin condition were used on the day of the test. Ten samples were attached. At the time of chemical treatment, the rabbits are housed in a dedicated fixture, and then impregnated with 0.25 mL each of gauze patches cut into 2 × 1.5 cm (3 cm ² ), 5 locations on one side of the back of the rabbit, on both sides Affixed with 3M surgical tape and left for 4 hours. After a predetermined time, the patch was immediately removed, the sample remaining on the skin was lightly wiped with gauze and the like, and then the fixation was continued until one hour later.

(Observation of skin irritation)
In accordance with the guidelines of the Ministry of Agriculture and Water, irritation was evaluated according to the evaluation criteria for skin irritation of Draize after 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after patch removal. The skin in which crust formation was observed was also observed after 7 and 14 days, and the presence or absence of reversibility of skin damage was examined from the crusted healing state.

(Evaluation criteria for skin irritation)

(Skin irritation and evaluation)
The average score after 1, 24, 48, 72 hours was calculated, the scores of (A) and (B) were summed, and skin irritation was evaluated from the following. The results are shown in Table 1.

[Test Example 2] Chemical damage test (prototype) Chinese cabbage (variety Musou)
Growth situation Main leaf 5th to 6th leaf stage (approx. 3 weeks after sowing)
(Chemical concentration) x500 x250
(Test method) After 10 ml of chemical solution / pot (about dripping) was applied to Chinese cabbage / cultured rustroware and stored in a greenhouse * for 1 week, the degree of phytotoxicity was investigated by observing browning of the leaf edge. The results are shown in Table 2. *: Temperature 21-29 ° C
(Drug damage assessment)-: No drug damage
±: Slight phytotoxicity is recognized, but there is no practical problem
+: Practical problems due to clear phytotoxicity
++: Practical problems due to strong phytotoxicity

  According to the present invention, a liquid agrochemical composition with reduced phytotoxicity and skin irritation to crops is provided.
