PRIME ® L-408 Super Spreader is a trisiloxane ethoxylate-based adjuvant that reduces the surface tension of spray solutions beyond the capabilities of conventional nonionic surfactants.
PRIME ® L-408 Super Spreader can be incorporated into agrochemical formulations. While organosilicone surfactants are prone to hydrolysis in acidic or basic conditions, optimal performance is achieved by maintaining the formulation's pH between 6.5 and 7.5. For best results, a minimum concentration of 5% is recommended based on the total formulation.
