Definitions
- the present invention concerns coated plant seeds which seeds have been coated by a composition containing a water-soluble or water swellable polymer.
- the invention also relates to a process for providing the coated seeds.
- Anionic linear polymers have been used to reduce leaching of water and nutrients in leaching substrates, for instance coarse textured sands.
- the effect of water-soluble anionic polyacrylamides on the saturated hydraulic conductivity and water retention values of a range of textured soils is described in the paper by DJ Home and RE Sojka, Soil and Water Conservation Society 2002 Conference Abstracts.
- the polymers referred to in this article have been applied to irrigation water and the upper region of the soil substrate.
- a problem with techniques in which polymers are applied to irrigation water, is that the amounts of polymer required are quite high in order to achieve any useful effect.
- Acrylic polymers have been used as binders in seed coating applications to achieve adhesion of a variety of materials to seeds.
- An example of this is in Russian patent 2183394 which describes the application of polyacrylamide to adhere selenium to seeds.
- Acrylic polymers have also been used as part of a film forming coating in order to protect seeds.
- Polish patent 146138 describes a seed dressing containing pesticides, nutrients and growth regulators that been a obtained by the addition of polymers such as polyacrylamide or hydrolyzed polyacrylamide and lignosulfonates, molasses or brown coal dust film and formaldehyde, epoxides or Ca salts.
- the dressing is applied by spraying and forms a strong film that has low phytotoxicity and is designed to protect the seed.
- GB 2207140 describes the preparation of water absorbent polymers by reverse phase suspension polymerisation for by the recovery of the polymer beads thus formed. There is no disclosure of preparing step polymers by reverse phase emulsion or dispersion polymerisation. The polymer is said to be useful for a variety of applications including seed coating agent.
- Australian patent application 2000 053638 describes using a linear polymer of sodium acrylate to produce a protective coating for hulled rice which protective coating is said to improve the germination of the seed.
- a gelling agent usually a calcium or barium based compound, is required in order to produce the gel forming layer that is used coated seeds.
- WO 85/01736 describes a hygroscopic or water absorbent coating for seeds for facilitating seed germination prepared using finely divided polyacrylamide and polyacrylate.
- the polymer is usually applied as a particulate composition together with other particulate material such as finely divided graphite.
- Chinese patent 1297682 describes a polyacrylate used with a mix of nutrients and other additives in order to maintain moisture in the root zone and improve drought resistance.
- South African patent 85/01925 reveals an alkali swellable aqueous emulsion that is diluted in water and the polymer is activated by adjustment of the pH to 8.5. The resulting solution thinned by the addition of acid, and then applied to the seeds. The objective is to improve the germination of the seed.
- U.S. published patent application 2004 069031 concerns water-soluble polyacrylamide soil conditioners that are applied to a solid carrier such as fertilizers or mulches.
- a coated plant seed comprising a seed which is coated with polymer composition comprising a water-soluble or water swellable polymer, which polymer composition is in the form of a reverse phase emulsion or a reverse phase dispersion.
- the polymer migrates within the soil structure and prevents leaching of the soil solution (containing nutrients) by entering into the interstitial spaces and capillaries within the soil/sand. This has been found to reduce the vertical flow of the water or nutrient solution under gravity, which helps to maintain moisture in the root zone.
- the emulsion or dispersion polymer coated on the seed allow soil moisture and/or nutrients to be retained in the zone of the plant seed or seedling which improves nutrient transport and uptake and can reduce the susceptibility to disease. This reduces variation in plant growth, nutrition distribution, crop quality and crop yield.
- the water-soluble or water swellable polymer may be any suitable hydrophilic polymer that can be provided in the form of a reverse phase emulsion or a reverse phase dispersion.
- the polymer may be a natural polymer, for instance polysaccharides such as starches, starch derivatives, hydroxy ethyl cellulose, carboxy methyl cellulose, etc.
- the polymer is synthetic and suitably is a vinyl addition polymer.
- Preferred water-soluble or water swellable polymers are formed from water-soluble ethylenically unsaturated monomer or blend of water-soluble ethylenically unsaturated monomers.

- IV is at least 5 or 6 dl/g, more preferably at least 8 or 9 dl/g.
- IV may be up to for instance 25 or 30 dl/g but generally it is found that the optimum performance is given by polymers having IV not more than about 20 or 22 dl/g. Usually the IV is not more than 20, and generally in the range of 5 to 20 dl/g, especially around 15 dl/g. Intrinsic viscosity of polymers may be determined by preparing an aqueous solution of the polymer (0.5-1% w/w) based on the active content of the polymer.
- 2 g of this 0.5-1% polymer solution is diluted to 100 ml in a volumetric flask with 50 ml of 2M sodium chloride solution that is buffered to pH 7.0 (using 1.56 g sodium dihydrogen phosphate and 32.26 g disodium hydrogen phosphate per litre of deionised water) and the whole is diluted to the 100 ml mark with deionised water.
- the intrinsic viscosity of the polymers are measured using a Number 1 suspended level viscometer at 25 0 C in 1 M buffered salt solution.
- the water-soluble or water swellable polymers of the present invention may be prepared as reverse phase emulsions or reverse phase dispersions by any conventional technique.
- the water-soluble or water swellable polymer may be prepared by reverse phase emulsion polymerisation, optionally followed by dehydration under reduced pressure and temperature and often referred to as azeotropic dehydration to form a dispersion of polymer particles in oil.
- the polymers may be produced as a water-in-oil emulsion or dispersion by water-in- oil emulsion polymerisation, for example according to a process defined by EP- A- 150933, EP-A-102760, EP-A-126528, US3624019, US3734873, or US4052353 .
