Evonik launches BREAK THRU® DA 647 dispersant as multi-functional additive for pesticide formulations

German specialty chemicals company Evonik recently introduced a unique, non-ionic dispersant BREAK-THRU® DA 647 especially suited for SC, SE and FS formulations. BREAK-THRU® DA 647 acts as milling aid, wetting agent and dispersant. It also contributes emulsifying properties for aromatic solvents in EC formulations.

BREAK-THRU DA-647 is a versatile molecule, capable of conferring a number of benefits to a variety of pesticide formulations with solid actives.

•    During milling, it quickly adsorbs onto solid particles reducing interactions and agglomeration
•    Prevents settling and re-agglomeration of particles allowing for formulations with long shelf lives
•    No need for co-surfactants

BREAK-THRU DA 647 has a benign toxicological profile with compliance to FIFRA under 40 CFR 180.960.
