preparation example Construction

[0077] A method of preparing the compositions of the invention involves mixing the ingredients in a suitable vessel. The presently preferred order of addition of ingredients is as follows: First, all required surfactants are added to the concentrated aqueous solution of the water-soluble herbicide, along with acid or base, if necessary, to adjust the pH, forming the first mixture. The oil soluble grass herbicide is added to the organic solvent with stirring to form a second mixture. The second mixture is then added to the first mixture with stirring to form the final composition.

[0078] An alternative sequence of addition is as follows: A concentrated aqueous solution of the water-soluble herbicide is prepared and the other optional water-soluble ingredients (including pH-adjusting acids or bases) are added together with stirring to form a first mixture. The oil soluble grass herbicide is added to the organic solvent with stirring to form a second mixture. The second mixtu...

Abstract

The invention provides a microemulsion liquid herbicide composition, which includes: (i) water; (ii) water-soluble herbicide; (iii) oil-soluble cyclohexenone or aryloxyphenoxy propionate Graminous herbicides, the weight ratio of which is about 1:50 to about 1:1 with water-soluble herbicides; (iv) an organic solvent that is substantially immiscible with water, which is selected from those organic solvents in which the grass herbicides have A solvent with a partition coefficient of / water, expressed in a logarithm of about 4 or higher, which has a weight ratio to the grass herbicide of about 3:1 to about 30:1; (v) an emulsion system, which contains one or more A surfactant having tertiary amine functional groups in an amount not exceeding about 10% by weight but sufficient to provide acceptable physical stability of the microemulsion; (vi) 0 to a stabilizing amount of one or more water-soluble chlorides , which is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen chloride, alkali metal chlorides, ammonium chloride, low molecular weight organic ammonium chlorides and quaternary ammonium chloride surfactants; and (vii) a dispersion system containing one or more nonionic surfactants , the total amount used does not exceed about 5% by weight but is sufficient to provide acceptable dispersion of the microemulsion diluted with an appropriate amount of water for application to plants, but is not sufficient to destabilize the microemulsion. The compositions of the invention wherein the water-soluble herbicide is a glyphosate salt are particularly useful for controlling undesirable glyphosate-tolerant grasses in glyphosate-tolerant broadleaf crops.

Description

field of invention [0001] The present invention relates to agriculturally useful compositions comprising at least two herbicidal active ingredients, one of which is a selective gramineous herbicide of the cyclohexenone or aryloxyphenoxypropionate class and the other One is a water-soluble herbicide. In particular, the present invention relates to stable liquid concentrate compositions of these active ingredients. Background of the invention [0002] In agricultural and related endeavors, it is desirable to treat unwanted plants, especially weeds, with chemical herbicides as a means of killing or controlling such plants or their locus. Often such treatments have to be carried out in the presence of plants, especially crops, without causing damage to the crops to unacceptable levels. For this reason, selective herbicides, ie, compounds which are herbicidally active against certain types of weeds while acceptably not harmful to specific crops when weed...
