Abstract
The present invention generally relates to stable suspension concentrates (SC) displaying shear thinning property and comprising: a water soluble salt, an electrolyte water thickening polymer (eg. xanthan gum or guar gum), an insoluble solid agrochemical and water. The water soluble salt can be an inorganic salt or a pesticide salt (eg. fertilizer or water soluble herbicide such as glyphosate, glufosinate, dicamba, MCPA or 2,4-D); the water thickening polymer is a water soluble polymer capable of fully hydrating and thickening the salt solution (eg. AGHRO DR-2000); and the insoluble solid agrochemical can be a cellulosic derivative MEHEC, a water insoluble pesticide (eg. atrazine, clothianidin or imidacloprid), a water insoluble growth regulator, a water insoluble micronutrient or mixtures thereof. The invention further relates to a method of producing said suspension comprising dissolving thickening polymer in water, adding water soluble salt and adding water insoluble agrochemical.
