  • a water-based pesticidal suspension containing, as an active ingredient, an agricultural chemical having a high aqueous solubility is stored for a long period of time, the dissolved active ingredient undergoes crystallization with suspended particles serving as nuclei, whereby the particles will grow and become coarse, and a stably suspended composition is hardly obtainable. From such a problem in e.g. stability, it is not proper to select water as a dispersant at the time of formulating an agricultural chemical having a high aqueous solubility into a formulation. Further, the growth and coarsening of the active ingredient particles are also influential over deterioration of the pesticidal effects. However, a pesticide formulation using water as a dispersant is very advantageous as it is less susceptible to restrictions in the production,

Abstract

There has been a problem such that if a water-based pesticidal suspension containing, as an active ingredient, an agricultural chemical having a high aqueous solubility, particularly an agricultural chemical having an aqueous solubility exceeding 500 mg/L at 20°C, is stored for a long period of time, the active ingredient particles tend to grow and become coarse, whereby a stabilized suspension is hardly obtainable. To solve such a problem, the present invention provides a water-based pesticidal suspension comprising (a) an agricultural chemical or its salt having an aqueous solubility of from 500 mg/L to 6,000 mg/L at 20 °C, (b) a polycarboxylate type surfactant, (c) a sulfonate type surfactant, and (d) water.

Description

DESCRIPTION
TITLE OF INVENTION: WATER-BASED PESTICIDAL SUSPENSION TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to a water-based pesticidal suspension containing, as an active ingredient, an agricultural chemical having a high aqueous solubility, particularly an agricultural chemical having an aqueous solubility of from 500 mg/L to 6,000 mg/L at 20°C.
BACKGROUND ART
A compound having a high aqueous solubility, generally a compound having an aqueous solubility exceeding 100 mg/L at 20°C, is considered to be hardly formulated into a water-based suspension. Especially when a compound having an aqueous solubility exceeding 500 mg/L at 20°C is employed, a problem is likely to be result with respect to the physicochemical aspect of the formulation in many cases. For example, N-cyanomethyl-4-(trifluoromethyl)nicotinamide (common name: flonicamid) is a compound disclosed as Compound No. 1 in Patent Document 1 , and its aqueous solubility at 20°C is 5,200 mg/L, but in Patent Document 1 , no Example is given to formulate flonicamid into a water-based suspension formulation.
Patent Document 2 discloses a pesticidal composition comprising a pyridine type compound and another pesticide, and in its Formulation Example 5, a water-based suspension containing flonicamid is disclosed. However, a water-based pesticidal suspension which employs specific surfactants as in the present invention and which exhibits an excellent physicochemical performance, is not disclosed.

DISCLOSURE OF INVENTION TECHNICAL PROBLEM
If a water-based pesticidal suspension containing, as an active ingredient, an agricultural chemical having a high aqueous solubility is stored for a long period of time, the dissolved active ingredient undergoes crystallization with suspended particles serving as nuclei, whereby the particles will grow and become coarse, and a stably suspended composition is hardly obtainable. From such a problem in e.g. stability, it is not proper to select water as a dispersant at the time of formulating an agricultural chemical having a high aqueous solubility into a formulation. Further, the growth and coarsening of the active ingredient particles are also influential over deterioration of the pesticidal effects. However, a pesticide formulation using water as a dispersant is very advantageous as it is less susceptible to restrictions in the production,
transportation, storage or use from the viewpoint of e.g. the flame point, in handling, as compared with one using an organic solvent as a dispersant. Accordingly, a water- based pesticidal suspension has been desired whereby the growth and coarsening of the active ingredient particles are suppressed while using water as a dispersant.
SOLUTION TO PROBLEM
The present inventors have conducted a research to solve the above problem and as a result, have found that by dispersing an agricultural chemical having a high aqueous solubility, particularly agricultural chemical particles having an aqueous solubility of at least 500 mg/L at 20°C, in an aqueous medium containing a
polycarboxylate type surfactant and a sulfonate type surfactant, a stable water-based pesticidal suspension free from the growth and coarsening of the active ingredient particles, can be obtained. The present invention has been accomplished on the basis of this discovery. That is, the present invention relates to a water-based pesticidal suspension comprising an agricultural chemical having a high aqueous solubility, particularly an agricultural chemical having an aqueous solubility of at least 500 mg/L at 20°C, a polycarboxylate type surfactant, a sulfonate type surfactant and water. Particularly, the present invention relates to a water-based pesticidal
suspension comprising (a) an agricultural chemical or its salt having an aqueous solubility of from 500 mg/L to 6,000 mg/L at 20°C, (b) a polycarboxylate type surfactant, (c) a sulfonate type surfactant, and (d) water. ADVANTAGEOUS EFFECT OF INVENTION
According to the present invention, it is possible to prevent the growth and coarsening of the active ingredient particles in the water-based pesticidal suspension during its storage. Accordingly, the water-based pesticidal suspension of the present invention is expected to provide an excellent physicochemical performance and a high pesticidal effect which is stable over a long period of time.

TEST EXAMPLE 1 (Initial physical property tests)
The water-based pesticidal suspension obtained in each of Examples 1 to 4, 7 and 9 and Comparative Examples 1 to 3 was filled in a 30 mL glass bottle, which was capped and then immersed in a constant temperature water tank at 20°C. 30 Minutes later, the glass bottle was taken out, and the viscosity of the water-based pesticidal suspension was measured by means of a B type viscosimeter (rotor: No. 2, rotational speed of rotor: 60 rpm). Further, the average particle size(volume) was measured by a particle size analyzer Microtrac HRA (manufactured by NIKKISO Co., Ltd.). The results are shown in Tables 1 , 2 and 3.
TEST EXAMPLE 2 (Suspension stability test after heating (54°C for 2 weeks))
The water-based pesticidal suspension was filled in a 30 mL glass bottle, which was capped and then stored in an incubator at 54°C for 2 weeks, whereupon the glass bottle was taken out from the constant temperature machine, and visual observation of the suspension state, and the viscosity measurement and particle size measurement in the same manner as in Test Example 1 were carried out. The visual observation was assessed by means of eye observation or optical microscopic observation (600 magnification, OLYMPUS CORPORATION, BH-2). Here, presence or absence of coarse particles was assessed by determining the existence of crystals by means of eye observation ,or by determining the existence of crystals of 50 μιη or more exist, by means of optical microscopic observation. The results are also shown in Tables 1 , 2 and 3.
TEST EXAMPLE 3 (Suspension stability test after storage at room temperature (room temperature for 2 years))
The water-based pesticidal suspension was filled in a 30 mL glass bottle, which was capped and then stored in a laboratory for 2 years, whereupon visual observation of the suspension state, and the viscosity measurement and the particle size
measurement in the same manner as in Test Example 1 , were carried out. The results are also shown in Table 1.
It is evident that the water-based pesticidal suspension of the present invention was excellent in suspension stability, and the physical properties in the formulation were stable such that the suspension state was stabilized, no coarse particles were precipitated, and the average particle size of the active ingredient particles and the viscosity of the suspension undergo no change even under severe conditions such as storage by heating condition or storage for a long period of time.
On the other hand, in the suspension stability test after heating and the
suspension stability ordinary temperature evaluation test, in Comparative Examples 1 and 2, the entire suspension underwent gelation, and in Comparative Example 3, the suspension underwent phase separation to a supernatant layer and a suspension layer, and in the vicinity of the interface, needle coarse particles were precipitated, and the form of the desired suspension was not maintained, and thus, it is evident that in case component (b) and component (c) are not contained at the same time, it is not possible to obtain a water-based pesticidal suspension having a storage stability for a long period of time.
