Description

Description of the invention

Glyphosate is a well-known in this area effective post-emergence herbicide applied to leaves. In its 2 acid form, glyphosate has the structure represented by formula (1):

Mra on no" o o o ( ) 1 and is relatively insoluble in water (1.1 bmas.9Uo at 2592). For this reason, it is usually prepared in the form of a water-soluble salt.

Monobasic, dibasic and tribasic salts of glyphosate can be obtained. However, it is usually preferable to obtain glyphosate and apply glyphosate to plants in the form of a monobasic salt, although various ready-made preparations of dibasic salts are also known. The most widely used salt of glyphosate is the mono(isopropylammonium) salt, often abbreviated as IRA. Commercial herbicides of Mopzapio Sotrapu that have the IRA salt of glyphosate as an active ingredient include the herbicides Koipair, Koshpadyr OigaMmah, Koshpadyr kga, s 29 Kotsypdir Higa and Codeo. All herbicides are ready-made preparations in the form of concentrates of aqueous Ge) solutions (51) and are usually diluted in water by the consumer before applying to plant leaves. Another glyphosate salt that is commercially produced as ready-to-use formulations as 51 includes the trimethylsulfonium salt, often abbreviated TM5, which is used, for example, in the herbicide Toispdomup. 7epesa (bupdepia). with

Various salts of glyphosate, methods of obtaining glyphosate salts, ready-to-use formulations of glyphosate or its salts, and methods of using glyphosate or its salts to kill or control weeds and other plants are described in US Pat. No. 4,507,250 to Vackey, US Pat. name of Russia, US patents --

The above patents are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. in.

Among the water-soluble salts of glyphosate, known in the literature, but which were never used before the date of registration of the priority of this invention, it is possible to specify the potassium salt having the structure represented by formula (2): « - - shi s o Vrach o . ny - "from Kry R MN" h no" | I her 2 (2) -

Fo still. t is mainly present in an ionic form in an aqueous solution at a pH of approximately 4. The potassium salt of glyphosate has

Co) molecular weight 207. This salt is described, for example, by Egap2 in US Pat. No. 4,405,531, cited above, as one of the "alkali metal" salts of glyphosate useful as herbicides, with potassium specifically described as one of the alkali metals along with lithium, sodium, cesium and rubidium. Example C describes the preparation of a monopotassium salt by the interaction of certain amounts of glyphosate in the form of acid and potassium carbonate in an aqueous medium.

GF! Very few herbicides are commercially available as their potassium salts. In Resisiside Mapiai, 11 Shko Eyop, 1997, auxin-type herbicides, 2,4-0O8 ((2,4-dichlorophenoxy)butyric acid), or dicamba (3,6-dichloro-2-methoxybenzoic acid), are listed as potassium salts. dichloroprop (2-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)propanoic acid),

MCPA ((4-chloro-2-methylphenoxy)acetic acid) and picloram (4-amino-3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinecarboxylic acid), 60 the active ingredient in certain herbicide products sold under the trademark Yum/Adgossiepsevs Togaop.

The water solubility of the potassium salt of glyphosate is disclosed in co-pending application Ser. No. 09/444766, filed Nov. 22, 1999, the full disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. As described therein, the potassium salt of glyphosate has a solubility in pure water at 209 of approximately 54wt.9o, i.e. approximately 44wt.9o of glyphosate acid equivalent (k.e.). It is very similar to the solubility of the IRA salt. Concentrations expressed here as a mass percent refer to parts by mass of salt or acid equivalent per 100 parts by mass of solution. Thus, a simple concentrate of an aqueous solution of the potassium salt of glyphosate can easily be provided at a concentration of, for example, 44 wt.Oo c.e., comparable to the concentration commercially available with the glyphosate salt

IRA in the form of an aqueous solution concentrate from Mopzapio Sotrap called Koshpashyr O-RakK. Slightly higher concentrations can be obtained by weak overneutralization, for example, at 5-1095, of an aqueous solution of the potassium salt of glyphosate with potassium hydroxide.

The main advantage of IRA salt compared to many other glyphosate salts is good compatibility in ready-made preparative forms of this salt in the form of an aqueous solution concentrate with a wide range of surface-active surfactants. The term "surfactant" as used herein includes a wide range of adjuvants that can be added to glyphosate herbicidal compositions to increase their herbicidal activity (compared to that of the glyphosate salt in the absence of such adjuvant), stability, ability to the manufacture of such a composition or other useful properties of solutions, regardless of whether such excipient meets the more traditional definition of "surfactant".

Glyphosate salts usually require the presence of a suitable surfactant for best herbicidal activity. The surfactant may be provided in a ready-to-use formulation as a concentrate, or it may be added by the user on site to a diluted spray composition.

The choice of surfactant is important for herbicidal action. For example, in an extensive study described in (M/eei 5siepse, 1977, myoshte 25, radez 275-287, MMugiiyi apa Vigpzide| found a wide variation in their ability to increase the herbicidal efficiency of glyphosate applied in the form of IRA salt.

Despite some broad generalizations, the relative ability of different surfactants to enhance the herbicidal efficacy of glyphosate is inherently unpredictable.

Surfactants designed to provide the most beneficial enhancement of the herbicidal efficacy of glyphosate are usually, but not exclusively, cationic surfactants, including surfactants that form cations in an aqueous solution or dispersion at pH levels of about 4-5 , characteristic of the ready-made preparative forms of ZI monobasic salts of glyphosate. Examples are surface-active substances of the type of tertiary alkylamines with a long chain (in a typical case from Со to О and)

Siv) and quaternary alkylammonium surfactants. The most commonly used surfactant of the tertiary alkylamine type, which is used in ready-made preparations in the form of a concentrate of an aqueous solution of glyphosate salt IRA, is a hydrophilic surfactant su

From polyoxyethylene(15)taloamine, i.e. taloamine, which has a total of approximately 1bmol of ethylene oxide in two polymerized chains of ethylene oxide attached to the amino group, as shown in formula (3): "

Me, where K is a mixture of mainly C 46- and C-alkyl and alkenyl chains formed from tallow (animal) fat, and the sum of tp is on average about 15.

It has been found desirable for some applications to use a somewhat less hydrophilic alkylamine type surfactant, such as a surfactant having less than

He is approximately TOmol of ethylene oxide, as proposed in US patent No. 5,668,085 to Rogrez et al., for example, polyoxyethylene(2)cocoamine. In this patent, illustrative aqueous compositions including such a surfactant together with IRA, ammonium or potassium salts of glyphosate are described. The highest dv concentration of glyphosate in the ready-made preparative forms of potassium salts, shown in table C of patent "085, is

ZbOg k.e. of glyphosate/l with a mass ratio of k.e. glyphosate to surfactant 2:1.

F) The class of alkylated alkylamines is described in UMO 00/59302 for use in herbicide compositions for spraying. It describes potassium glyphosate solutions containing various EO/PO-propylamines or dUebatype -propyldiamines. 60 A wide variety of quaternary ammonium surfactants have been described as components of ready-to-use preparative forms of glyphosate IRA salt in the form of an aqueous solution concentrate. Illustrative examples are

M-methylpolyoxyethylene(2)cocoammonium chloride, described in European patent Mo0274369,

M-methylpolyoxyethylene(15)cocoammonium chloride, described in the US patent Mo5317003, and various quaternary ammonium compounds having the formula (4):

where B", K2 and BZ are each C 1-3-alkyl groups and n is an average number from 2 to 20, described in US patent Mo5464807.

In the publication PCT Mo UUO 97/16969, compositions of glyphosate are described, which have the form of an aqueous solution concentrate, in the form of IRA salt and methylammonium and diammonium salts, including a quaternary ammonium surfactant and a salt of an acid and a primary, secondary or tertiary alkylamine compound.

Other cationic surfactants that have been reported to be useful in glyphosate salt formulations in the form of aqueous solution concentrates include the cationic surfactants described in PCT Publication 70 Mo UUO 95/33379. In the publication PCT Mo MO 97/32476 it is also described that highly concentrated aqueous compositions of glyphosate salts can be obtained with some of the same cationic surfactants, additionally adding a certain component that increases the stability of the compositions. Examples of glyphosate salts in it are IRA salt and mono- and diammonium salts.

Among the described amphoteric or zwitterionic surface-active substances, which can be useful /5 Components of ready-made preparative forms of glyphosate IRA salt in the form of an aqueous solution concentrate, there are known alkylamine oxides, such as polyoxyethylene (10-20) tallowamine oxide, described in US patent Mo5118444.

Nonionic surfactants are generally described as less compatible with glyphosate than cationic or amphoteric surfactants when used as the sole surfactant component of glyphosate formulations. Exceptions are some alkylpolylylucosides, as described, for example, in Australian patent Mob27503. Other nonionic surfactants that have been described as useful when used with glirosate include polyoxyethylene(10-100)-C 46 22-alkyl ethers, as described in PCT Mo UUO publication 98/17109. Anionic surfactants, except in combination with cationic surfactants, as described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,389,598 and U.S. Pat.

USA Mo5703015, of course there is little interest in ready-made preparative forms of 51 glyphosate. In the patent "015, a mixture of surface-active substances of dialkylamine and an anionic, reducing eye irritation compound is described. The mixture of surface-active substances is described as suitable for obtaining ready-made preparative (o) forms of various glyphosate salts in the form of concentrates of aqueous solutions, moreover, in the list of specified salts includes the potassium salt. The concentrates of the '015 patent contain from about 5 to about 5095, preferably from about 3595 to about 45905 keu. of glyphosate and from about 5 to about 2595 of surfactant. Further, in the publication PCT Mo MUO 00/08927, the use of some polyalkylated phosphate esters in combination with some polyalkylated amidoamines in ready-made preparations containing t) glyphosate is described. The potassium salt is identified as one of several glyphosate salts listed as "appropriate, acceptable." "-

US patent No. 5750468 recently described a class of surface-active substances such as alkyl(simple) etheramine, alkyl(simple) etherammonium salt and alkyl(simple) etheramine oxide, which are |se) 35 suitable for obtaining ready-made preparative forms of various glyphosate salts in the form of a concentrate part of an aqueous solution, and potassium salt is included in the list of specified salts. It describes that an advantage of the surfactants considered when used in an aqueous composition with glyphosate salts is that said surfactants allow the concentration of glyphosate in the composition to be increased to very high levels. "

It appears that serious consideration of the potassium salt of glyphosate as a herbicidal active ingredient has been held back by the relative difficulty of producing this salt as a highly concentrated product of ZI together with the preferred types of surfactants. For example, a surface-active substance that is widely used in IRA glyphosate salt compositions, namely, polyoxyethylene(15)thaloamine of the above formula (3), is extremely incompatible in an aqueous solution with the potassium salt of glyphosate. In addition, the publication PCT Mo UMO 00/15037 indicates the generally low compatibility of surface-active substances of the type of alkylated alkylamines with -I concentrates that have a high concentration of glyphosate. As described therein, in order to "create" an effective level of surfactant, an alkyl polyglycoside-type surfactant is required in combination with

Me, a surface-active substance of the alkylamine type for the preparation of concentrates with a high concentration, which contain the potassium salt of glyphosate.

The addition of such alkylpolyglycosides leads to the preparation of ready-made preparations having a high 1 viscosity (compared to ready-made preparations without alkylpolyglycosides). Such an increase in viscosity

HA of the indicated ready-made preparations, which have a high concentration, is undesirable for various reasons. In addition to being more difficult to pour out of the container in an appropriate manner or to wash residues out of it, more significant adverse effects resulting from higher viscosity ready-to-use formulations have been observed relative to pump delivery requirements. Bulking of liquid aqueous glyphosate products is achieved by the consumer in large refillable containers, sometimes known as shuttle containers, which typically have (F; a built-in pump or valve for an external pump to move the liquid. Liquid aqueous glyphosate

GI products are also transported in large quantities in large tanks with a capacity of approximately up to 100,000 liters. The liquid is usually moved by pumping to a storage tank by equipment operated by a wholesaler, retailer or cooperative society, from which it can be further transferred to shuttle containers or smaller containers for further distribution. Since large quantities of glyphosate formulations are purchased and shipped in early spring, the low temperature pumping characteristics of such formulations are very important.

When such alkylpolyglycosides (for example, Agdity! APO-2067 and 2-ethylhexylglucoside) are added to glyphosate d5 concentrate, the manufactured product becomes dark brown in color. It is desirable for the manufactured glyphosate product to have a lighter color than products that contain an alkyl polyglycoside as described in

MO 00/15037 having a color intensity of 14 to 18 as measured by a Gardner colorimeter. When a dye is added to a manufactured glyphosate product having a Gardner color intensity greater than about 10, the concentrate remains dark brown in color. Concentrates with a Gardner color intensity of 10 are difficult to stain in different colors, such as blue, green, red, or yellow, which is often desirable to distinguish a glyphosate product from other herbicide products.

It may be desirable to provide a storage-stable composition as an aqueous concentrate (i.e., a ready-to-use formulation) of glyphosate potassium or other glyphosate salts, excluding glyphosate IRA, that has an agriculturally acceptable surfactant content or that is "fully loaded" " surface-active substance. Said formulations exhibit a reduced viscosity so that they can be pumped with a standard bulk pump at 0 C at a rate of at least 7.5 gallons per minute, typically greater than 10 gallons per minute, and preferably greater than 12.5 gallons per minute. "Agriculturally acceptable surfactant content" means the content 75 of one or more surfactants of such a type or types and in such an amount that the user of the composition obtains an advantage in its herbicidal efficacy compared to a similar composition, but which does not contain surfactant - active substance. The term "fully loaded" means that the composition has a concentration of the appropriate surfactant sufficient to provide, after conventional dilution in water and foliar application, herbicidal efficacy against one or more important weed species without the need for additional surfactant to be added to the diluted composition. - active substance.

The term "storage stable" in the context of a glyphosate salt composition in the form of an aqueous concentrate additionally containing a surfactant means that the composition does not show phase separation when exposed to temperatures up to about 502 for 14-28 days and preferably does not form crystals of glyphosate or its salts when exposed to temperatures of about 02 for a period of up to about 7 days (ie, composition Ha must have a crystallization point of 09 or lower). For concentrates of aqueous solutions, storage stability at high temperatures is often indicated by a cloud point at approximately 502C or higher. The cloud point of the composition is usually determined by heating the composition until the solution becomes cloudy, then allowing the composition to cool while stirring, while continuously monitoring its temperature. The temperature reading taken when the solution becomes clear is the cloud point. A cloud point of 502C or higher is generally considered acceptable for most commercial purposes for ready-to-use formulation 51 glyphosate. Ideally, the cloud point should be 602C or higher and the composition should withstand temperatures down to about -109C for up to about 7 days without crystal growth, even in the presence of glyphosate salt seed crystals. Gee)

Surfactant described here as "compatible" with glyphosate salt at certain concentrations

From the surface-active substance and k.e. glyphosate, is a surface-active substance that provides a storage-stable aqueous concentrate, as defined just above, containing such a surface-active substance and salt at certain concentrations.

Users of liquid herbicide products usually measure the dose by volume rather than by weight, and such a product is usually labeled with instructions for the appropriate application rates expressed in volume per unit of area, such as liters per hectare (l/ha) or fluid ounces per acre (oz/acre). Thus, the concentration c of the herbicidal active ingredient that matters to the user is not the mass percentage, but the mass per

A unit of volume, such as grams per liter (g/L) or pounds per gallon (lb/gal). In the case of glyphosate salts, the concentration is often expressed as grams of acid equivalent per liter (g cfu/l).

IRA glyphosate salt products that contain a surfactant, such as Koshpacr and Koopair 49 (Duke Mopvapio Sotrapu) herbicides, were historically most often produced at a glyphosate concentration of approximately 360 g and c.e.u./l. from 7epes, containing a surface-active substance, was prepared

Ge") at a glyphosate concentration of approximately 330 g c.e./l. Products with a lower EC concentration, i.e. more diluted, are also sold in some markets, but lead to costs per unit of glyphosate they contain, which mainly reflects the costs of packaging, transportation and storage. pg 20 Additional advantages in cost savings and user-friendliness are possible if it is possible to obtain a "fully loaded" composition in the form of an aqueous concentrate, or at least a composition that has an agriculturally useful surfactant content, at a concentration of glyphosate, at least about 320 g cfu/l, 340 g cfu/l or significantly more than ZbOg cfu/l, for example, at least about 420 g cfu/l or more, or at least 440, 450, 460, 470, 480, 490, 500, 510, 520, 530, 540, 550 25 or v00g c.e./l or more.

HF) At very high concentrations of k.e. of glyphosate, such as those listed above, usually presents a significant problem. Another problem is the difficulty in pouring and/or pumping the aqueous concentrate, which arises as a result of the high viscosity of the concentrate, which is especially evident at low temperatures. Therefore, it would be highly desirable to have a highly concentrated aqueous solution of the potassium salt of glyphosate, completely filled with an agriculturally useful surfactant, and such a ready-made formulation is preferably less viscous than ready-made preparations of the potassium salt of glyphosate containing alkyl polyglycoside surfactants, such as the surfactants described in PCT Mo UMO publication 00/15037.

There is a need for retentive surfactants that are compatible with a pesticide formulation such as an aqueous glyphosate herbicide concentrate. Surfactants 62 of the invention include novel surfactants as well as known surfactants not previously used in pesticide formulations. Surfactants that are particularly compatible with potassium glyphosate or other glyphosate salts other than glyphosate IRA have been identified to produce concentrates that have increased viscosity, storage stability, and loading compared to known glyphosate concentrates.

As will be apparent from the following description, these and other advantages are provided by the present invention.

Among several features of the present invention, therefore, can be noted the creation of a liquid pesticide composition having a high loading, useful in agriculture, in which the pesticide can be administered at a concentration of up to about 500 grams c.e.u./liter, preferably up to about 600 grams c.e./liter; creating such a 7/0 Composition having a viscosity of less than about 1000 centipoise at 02C, preferably less than about 500 centipoise at 092C; creating such a composition that will remain homogeneous after storage for at least 7 days at 502C; creating such a composition that will not show crystallization after at least 7 days at about 02C, preferably -102C, and creating such a composition that has a broad spectrum of weed suppression and is relatively easy to use.

Another embodiment of the present invention relates to an aqueous herbicidal composition including glyphosate or its salt or ether and an agriculturally suitable amount of the first cationic surfactant and the second surfactant of the diamine or triamine type.

Another variant of the implementation of this invention relates to an aqueous herbicidal composition, which includes 7/5 Glyphosate and a surface-active substance. Glyphosate is preferably in the form of its potassium, monoammonium, diammonium, sodium, monoethanolamine, p-propylamine, ethylamine, ethylenediamine, hexamethylenediamine or trimethylsulfonium salt.

Another version of the implementation refers to the herbicidal method, which includes mixing the composition of the first cationic surfactant and the second surfactant of the diamine or triamine type with the herbicide to form the herbicidal composition, diluting the herbicidally effective amount of the herbicidal composition in the appropriate volume of water to form the mixture for application and application of the mixture for use on « 70 leaves of a plant or plant. in c The last version of the implementation refers to the herbicidal method, which includes mixing the composition of surface-active substances such as etheramine and diamine with the herbicide to form the herbicidal composition, ;" diluting in the appropriate volume of water a herbicidally effective amount of the herbicidal composition to form a mixture for use and applying the mixture for use on the leaves of a plant or plants.

Aqueous pesticide concentrates are often difficult to prepare because many surfactants may be incompatible with water-soluble herbicides. This is especially true for some glyphosate salts, such as potassium glyphosate. It was found that cationic surfactants of the etheramine type

Me, increase the effectiveness of such pesticide compositions. Although some etheramines are very compatible with glyphosate formulations, it is not always possible to obtain a fully loaded formulation with very high pesticide loads. A hydrotrope can be added to such compositions to stabilize them against phase separation. Conventional hydrotropes, however, increase costs and reduce the overall potential

Ge load without increasing biological efficiency. Various surfactants such as diamines, triamines and other polyamines have been found to be effective in stabilizing pesticide compositions and making etheramine surfactants compatible in the compositions.

Pesticide compositions of the invention include a water-soluble pesticide and a composition of cationic surfactants. The composition of cationic surfactants includes at least two surfactants. One surfactant is preferably an etheramine-type surfactant and the other is preferably a compatibilizing surfactant.

The compatibilizing surfactant is preferably a diamine, triamine, or polyamine. The compatibilizing surfactants may also act as secondary surfactants with etheramine-type surfactants. Thus, compatibilizing surfactants can advantageously act as both surfactants and hydrotropes. This property is particularly useful because it leads to a decrease in the excipient load while simultaneously increasing the active component load. 65 In one variant of the implementation of the invention, it was found that in the ready preparation form in the form of an aqueous concentrate, an unexpectedly high mass/volume concentration of the potassium salt of glyphosate can be obtained in the presence of the composition of the surfactant of the invention with the formation as a result of the composition, which shows acceptable, or in some cases, improved characteristics of viscosity and stability during storage and has herbicidal efficiency, similar to the efficiency of commercial ready-made preparative forms, or higher than that of such commercial forms of glyphosate.

Mn glyphosate, which is in the form of an aqueous concentrate, provides the user with a much higher mass of active

From the ingredient (a.i.) per unit volume of the composition, than the corresponding composition of the IRA salt of glyphosate.

The term "water soluble" as used herein with reference to a herbicide or a salt or ester thereof means a solubility in deionized water at 2092 of not less than about 5Og/L. Preferred water-soluble herbicides have a solubility in deionized water at 209C of not less than approximately 200 g/L. Particularly preferred water-soluble herbicides have a herbicidally active acidic or anionic part and are most usefully present in the composition of the invention in the form of one or more water-soluble salts. The aqueous phase of the composition may optionally contain, in addition to the water-soluble herbicide, other salts that contribute to the ionic strength of the aqueous phase.

A particularly predominant group of water-soluble herbicides are herbicides that are usually applied to plant leaves in the period after the emergence of seedlings. Although the invention is not limited to any particular class of water-soluble foliar herbicide, it has been found to provide an advantage for compounds that rely, at least in part for their herbicidal activity, on systemic movement (movement) in plants. Systemic movement in plants can occur through apoplastic (non-living) pathways, including in xylem vessels and in intercellular spaces and cell walls, Through symplastic (living) pathways, including phloem elements and other b5 tissues consisting of cells, with connected in a symplastic way by plasmodesma, or through both apoplastic and symplastic ways. For systemic foliar herbicides, the most important route is the phloem, and it is believed that the present invention provides the greatest benefit when the water-soluble herbicide is phloem-mobile. However, the compositions of the invention may also be useful when the water-soluble herbicide is non-systemic, as in the case of paraquat.

Water-soluble herbicides suitable for use in the compositions of the invention include acifluorfen, acrolein, amitrole, azulam, benazolin, bentazon, bialafos, bromacil, bromoxynil, chloramben, chloroacetic acid, clopyralid, 2,4-O0, 2,4-0O8, dalapon, dicamba, dichlorprop, dibenzoquat, diquat, endotal, fenac, fenoxaprop, flamprop, flumiclorac, fluoroglycofen, flupropanate, fomezafen, fosamine, glufosinate, glyphosate, imazameth, imazametabenz, imazamox, imazapic, imazapyr, imazaquin, imazetapir, ioxynil, RAMS, MSRV, /o mecoprop, methylarsonic acid, naphthalam, nonanoic acid, paraquat, picloram, hinclorac, sulfamic acid, 2,3,6-TVA, TS A, triclopyr and their water-soluble salts.

Preferred phloem mobile herbicides for use in the compositions of the invention include, but are not limited to, aminotriazole, azulam, bialaphos, clopyralid, dicamba, glufosinate, glyphosate, imidazolinones such as imazameth, imazametabenz, imazamox, imazapic, imazapyr, imazaquine and |imazetapyr, phenoxides such as 2,4-O0, 2,4-O8, dichlorprop, MCPA, MCRAV and mecoprop, picloram and triclopyr. A particularly preferred group of water-soluble herbicides are salts of bialaphos, glufosinate and glyphosate. Another particularly preferred group of water-soluble herbicides are salts of imidazolinone herbicides.

The compositions of the invention may optionally contain more than one water-soluble herbicide in solution in the aqueous phase.

A particularly preferred water-soluble herbicide useful in the composition of this invention is glyphosate, the acid form of which is alternatively known as M-(phosphonomethyl)glycine. Glyphosate salts useful in the compositions of this invention are described, for example, in US patents Mo3799758 and Mo4405531. Glyphosate salts that can be used according to the present invention include, but are not limited to, alkali metal salts, for example, sodium and potassium; ammonium salt; C. ds-alkylammonium salts, for example, dimethylammonium and isopropylammonium; salt C) vd-alkanolammonium, for example, monoethanolammonium; C. β-alkylsulfonium salts, for example, trimethylsulfonium, and their mixtures. The M-phosphonomethylglycine molecule has three acidic centers with different i) values of pK.; accordingly, it is possible to use mono-, di- and tribasic salts or any mixtures thereof, or salts with any intermediate level of neutralization. Particularly preferred salts of glyphosate include the potassium salt, the isopropylamine salt, the ammonium salt, the diammonium salt, the monoethanolamine salt, and the trimethylsulfonium salt. The most common is potassium salt.

The relative amount of potassium glyphosate loaded into the herbicidal composition of this invention will vary depending on many factors, including the surfactant system used, stabilizers, rheological characteristics of the composition, and the temperature range at which the composition will be maintained. The loading of potassium glyphosate in the herbicidal compositions of the invention is preferably at least 320 g c.e./l and, more preferably, at least 330, 340, 350, 360, 370, 380, 390, 400, 410, 420, cha 430, 440, 450, 460, 470, 480, 490, 500, 510, 520, 530, 540, 550, 560, 570, 580, 590, 600, 610, 620, 630, 640, 650, 660, 670, 680, 690 or 7O00g k.e./l.

The surfactant compositions described herein have been found to be highly effective when formulated with glyphosate. Effective glyphosate:surfactant ratios of 1:1, 2:1, 421, 6:1, 8:1, 10:1, 1221, 1421, 1621, 18:71 and up to 20:1 can be implemented. The mass ratio of the first surfactant to the compatibilizing surfactant is preferably between about 20:1 and 1:10, preferably between about 10:1 and 1:4 and, most preferably; preferably between about 8:1 and 1:3. This composition of surface-active substances makes it possible to produce compositions with a high load of glyphosate, preferably with an active load of at least 360 grams c.e./liter and, more preferably, at least approximately 370, 380, 390, 400, 410, 420, 430, 440, 450, 460, 470, -And 480, 490, 500, 510, 520, 530, 540, 550, 560, 570, 580, 590, 600, 610, 620, 630, 640, 650, 660, 670, 680, 690 or 700 grams k.e./liter.

Me, Ready preparations of the invention, which have a high load, show elevated temperatures - cloud points and increased stability at low temperature. Cloud point values of preferably at least about 402C, more preferably at least about 50, 60, 70 or otherwise 802C and most preferably greater than 902C can be achieved. Furthermore, two-week temperature stability (thermostability)

Kz is preferably at least approximately 02C, more preferably at least approximately -52C and most preferably at least approximately -102C. Thus, the compositions with a high load of this invention give concentrated ready-made preparations with a long service life and increased resistance to extreme temperature values in the fields, which are often found in early spring and late autumn. o Surface-active components are preferably selected so that the composition has a viscosity of no higher than about 1000 centipoise at 102C, a cloud point of no lower than about 502C, and, preferably, essentially no crystallization of glyphosate or its salts during storage at a temperature of about 02C for a period of up to about 7 days. More preferably, the composition should have a viscosity of no more than about 500 centipoise at 45 sec.7 at 102C, and the most preferred viscosity is no more than 400, 300, 200 or 100 centipoise.

However, in some cases higher viscosities may be acceptable, such as in cases where low temperature pumping considerations are not important. The surface-active component, which is added to the composition in the form of an aqueous herbicide concentrate, is in solution or is a stable suspension, emulsion or dispersion. for the word "predominantly" in the above context means that at least about 5Omas.9o, mostly

at least about 75% by weight and, more preferably, at least about 9% by weight of glyphosate, expressed as k.e., are present in the form of a potassium salt.

The density of any finished formulation of the invention containing glyphosate is preferably at least 1.3 grams/liter, more preferably at least about 1.305, 1.310, 1.315, 1.320, 1.325, 1.330, 1.335, 1.340, 1.345, 1,350, 1,355, 1,360, 1,365, 1,370, 1,375, 1,380, 1,385, 1,390, 1,395, 1,400, 1,405, 1,410, 1,415, 1,420, 1,455, 1,45 "

Other excipient ingredients may optionally be present in the composition of the invention, provided that the herbicide loading, effectiveness, cloud point and ability not to form crystals of the composition remain in accordance with the invention. Such additional excipient ingredients include generally accepted;" additives for ready-made preparations, such as dyes, thickeners, additives that add safety to preparations, stabilizers, crystallization inhibitors, agents that reduce the solidification temperature, including glycols, agents that suppress the formation of foam, agents against swelling of preparations, agents that -And add compatibility, etc.

A type of excipient ingredient that is often used in ready-to-use preparations that contain

Me, glyphosate, is an inorganic salt, such as ammonium sulfate, included to increase the herbicidal activity or - the stability of the herbicidal activity of glyphosate. Since the inorganic salt content of the finished formulation necessary to provide such an increase is typically relatively high, often more than the amount of glyphosate present, the benefit of adding such a salt to the composition of the invention is rarely

It will be. The amount of ammonium sulfate, for example, that could be introduced into a storage-stable aqueous composition containing glyphosate potassium salt at a concentration of at least 100 mg cfu/L may not be sufficient to provide significant benefit. An alternative, therefore, is to include a small amount of a bienergist, such as an anthraquinone compound or a phenyl-substituted olefin compound, as described in MoMo International Publications UUO 98/33384 and UMO 98/33385, respectively. (F, Another ingredient that can optionally be added to the herbicidal formulations of the present invention that contain glyphosate to further increase herbicidal efficacy and related herbicidal properties is dicarboxylic acid or a dicarboxylic acid salt. Suitable dicarboxylic acids which it is possible to add to the herbicide ready preparations containing glyphosate or its salt or ester and a surfactant, as described herein, including, for example, oxalic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid, glutaric acid, maleic acid, adipic acid and fumaric acid acid and their combinations or mixtures, and oxalic acid is preferred. In addition, in addition to dicarboxylic b5 ACID or instead of it, salts of the aforementioned dicarboxylic acids may be included in the herbicidal ready-made preparations of this invention to increase the herbicidal efficiency. Suitable salts include, for example, alkali metal salts, such as potassium salts, alkane salts olamines and salts of lower alkylamines. Preferred salts include potassium oxalate, dipotassium oxalic acid, sodium oxalate, disodium oxalic acid, diammonium oxalic acid, diethanolamine oxalate, dimethylamine oxalate, oxalic acid salts with alkanolamines, and oxalic acid salts with lower alkylamines.

Formulations containing a dicarboxylic acid such as oxalic acid or a salt of a dicarboxylic acid such as potassium oxalate typically contain a sufficient amount of dicarboxylic acid/dicarboxylic acid salt to increase the resulting efficacy of the herbicidal formulation. Typically, the mass ratio of total surfactant to carboxylic acid/carboxylic acid salt can be from about 1:11 to about 50:1, more preferably from 5:1 to 4071, and most preferably from about 5:1 to about 20:1. This ratio of total surface-active substance to carboxylic acid/carboxylic acid salt significantly increases the herbicidal efficiency of the resulting herbicidal preparative form.

Dicarboxylic acid or a salt thereof, which may be added to the herbicidal formulations of this invention to increase efficacy, is suitable for use with glyphosate or its salts or 7/5 ether. Suitable salts of glyphosate include the salts listed above, especially the isopropylamine salt, the potassium salt and the trimethylammonium salt. The present invention also offers a herbicidal method, which includes diluting with an appropriate volume of water a herbicidally effective volume of the concentrate, as proposed herein, to form a mixture for use and applying the mixture for use to the leaves of a plant or plant.

Herbicide efficiency is one of the biological actions that can be increased with the help of this invention.

The term "herbicidal efficacy" as used herein refers to any measure of suppression of plant growth observed, which may include one or more of the following actions: (1) killing, 2) inhibition of growth, reproduction, or proliferation, and 3) elimination, destruction or reduction by other means of distribution and vital activity of plants.

The herbicidal efficacy data presented here represent "inhibition" as a percentage following a standard procedure in the area, which reflects a visual assessment of plant death and reduced plant growth compared to untreated plants, performed by technicians specially trained to perform and i) record such observations. In all cases, all evaluations of percent inhibition within any one experiment or trial shall be performed by a single technician. Such measurements can be trusted and are regularly reported to Mopzapio Sotrap in the course of her herbicide-related activities. The present invention also includes a method of destroying or suppressing weeds or unwanted vegetation, which includes the steps of diluting the liquid concentrate in an appropriate amount of water to obtain a mixture in a tank and applying a herbicidally effective amount of the tank mixture to the leaves of weeds or unwanted vegetation. The invention similarly includes a method of destroying or suppressing weeds or unwanted vegetation, which includes the stages of diluting the concentrate in the form of solid particles in an appropriate amount of water with the formation of a mixture in the tank and applying a herbicidally effective amount of the tank mixture to the leaves of the weeds or eating unwanted vegetation.

In the herbicidal method of using the composition of the invention, the composition is diluted in an appropriate volume of water to obtain a solution for use, which is then applied to the leaves of the plant or plants at an application rate sufficient to achieve the required herbicidal effect. Such a contribution rate is usually expressed as "

The amount of glyphosate per unit of cultivated area, for example, grams of acid equivalent per hectare (g c.e.u./ha). . The term "necessary herbicidal effect" means, in a typical and illustrative case, at least 8595 a suppression of a plant species, as measured by a reduction in growth or death of plants after a period of time during which glyphosate exhibits its full herbicidal or phytotoxic effect in the treated plants. Depending on the type of plant and growing conditions, such a period of time can be as short as a week, but usually a period of at least two weeks is necessary for glyphosate to show its full effect.

The selection of application rates that are herbicidally effective for the composition of the invention is within the limits

Me, qualifications of an ordinary scientific worker in the field of agriculture. In the same way, a specialist in this area should know that the conditions of individual plants, the weather and growing conditions, as well as certain active components 5р | their mass ratio in the composition will affect the degree of herbicidal efficiency achieved in the practice of this invention. Regarding the use of glyphosate compositions, there is a large amount of information about

Preferred application rates for this invention vary depending on a number of factors, including the type and concentration of the active ingredient and the presence of plant species. uh-

Many exogenous chemical compounds (including glyphosate herbicide) must be taken up by the living tissues of the plant and transported within the plant to produce the necessary biological (e.g., herbicidal) action. Thus, it is important that the herbicidal composition is not applied in such a way as not to excessively damage and disrupt the normal functioning of the native plant tissue so rapidly that translocation is reduced. "

However, some limited degree of local damage may be negligible or even beneficial in its effect on the biological efficacy of some exogenous chemical compounds.

The following examples illustrate a large number of compositions of the invention. Many compositions;" glyphosate in the form of concentrates provide sufficient herbicidal efficiency in tests in greenhouses with a large number of weed species under different application conditions.

The amount of an exogenous chemical compound is chosen to ensure the required application rate in grams per 1 hectare (g/ha) when applied in a spraying volume of UZl/ha. For each composition, several rates of introduction of an exogenous chemical substance were used. Yes, except for cases stipulated especially when

For example, spray compositions were tested, the concentration of the exogenous chemical changed directly in proportion to the rate of the exogenous chemical, but the concentration of the excipient ingredients was kept constant for different rates of consumption of the exogenous chemical. o Compositions in the form of concentrates were tested by diluting, dissolving or dispersing in water with

With the formation of compositions for spraying. In these spray compositions obtained from concentrates, the concentration of the excipient ingredients varied with the concentration of the exogenous chemical.

The compositions for spraying the examples contained, in addition to the listed excipient ingredients, an exogenous Chemical substance, such as the potassium salt of glyphosate. The amount of exogenous chemical substance was chosen to ensure the required rate of consumption in grams per hectare (g/ha) when applying the volume for spraying

F) PLN 9/ha. Several norms of exogenous chemical substances were used for each composition. Thus, with the exception of a few specially determined cases when spraying compositions were tested, the concentration of the exogenous chemical changed in direct proportion to the consumption rate of the exogenous chemical substance, but the concentration of the excipient ingredients was kept constant throughout the different consumption rates of the exogenous chemical substance.

The seeds of the specified plant species were planted in 88 mm square vegetation vessels in a soil mixture that had been sterilized in advance and fertilized in advance with slow-release 14-14-14 MRK fertilizer at a consumption rate of 3.bkg/m?. Vegetation vessels were placed in a greenhouse with subsoil irrigation. Approximately one week after emergence, the seedlings were thinned as necessary, including removal of any unhealthy or abnormal plants, to form uniform rows in the test vessels.

Plants were maintained during the test in a greenhouse or growing chamber where they received a minimum of 65 14 hours of light per day. If natural light was insufficient to meet the daily requirement, then artificial light with an intensity of approximately 475 micro-Einsteins was used to compensate for the difference.

The temperature during the test was not precisely regulated, but averaged about 292 during the day and about 21°C during the night. Plants were irrigated subsoil throughout the trial to ensure adequate soil moisture levels.

Vegetation vessels were subjected to different treatments according to a randomized experimental scheme with 4 repetitions. A set of vegetation vessels were left untreated as controls, against which the effects of the treatments could later be assessed.

Application of glyphosate compositions was carried out by spraying with a crawler sprayer connected to a 950IE spray tip calibrated to deliver a spray volume of 93 liters per hectare 70 (l/ha) at a pressure of 165 kilopascals (kPa). After treatment, the vessels were returned to the greenhouse and kept there until they were ready for evaluation.

Treatments were performed using diluted aqueous compositions. The compositions could be obtained in the form of compositions for spraying directly from their ingredients or by diluting with water previously prepared compositions in the form of concentrates.

To assess herbicidal efficacy, all plants in the trial were examined by one experienced technician who recorded percent suppression and visually measured the effectiveness of each treatment compared to untreated plants. Suppression of 095 indicates no action and suppression of 10090 indicates that all plants are completely destroyed. Indicated values 96 suppression represent the average value for all repetitions of each treatment.

Tested plants include: Theophrastus's cord (Arshiop Tpeorngavsia, "AVOTN"), flat cock's millet (Espipospioa sgiv-daiyi mag. Egitepiae, "ESNSE"), forest sedges ("Maima zuimevzigiz MAG 5I"), hard fenugreek (Hoiysht gididst, " ОИ КИ"), turnip (Vgazzisa garza, "KARBA") and field violet (Mioia agmepviv, "MIOAK"), plants were grown and processed according to the above standard procedures.
