Silicone additives are used in pesticides, and can be used as spray modifiers, foliar absorption aids, activators, etc., and can be used in herbicides, foliar fertilizers, insecticides or growth regulators.

1. Application in herbicides
The pesticide is added with organic silicon, and after spraying on the surface of weed stems and leaves, the liquid quickly passes through the cuticle and cytoplasmic membrane, and finally transmits to all parts of the plant. After the weeds are injured, the stems and leaves will be twisted, deformed, and eventually die, which can significantly speed up the weeding speed and improve the control effect, and at the same time can greatly reduce water use and save labor.

2. Application in foliar fertilizer
Foliar fertilizer is a fast and efficient way to replenish nutrients, but the impermeability of plant epidermis to inorganic nutrient ions is very unfavorable to foliar fertilization, so infiltration and fertilization through stomata is a good way. Silicone additives can promote the absorption of plants through stomatal penetration and improve the utilization rate of fertilizers.

3. Application in growth regulators
Silicone surfactants can reduce the amount of use and improve the use effect. For example, gibberellin is widely used in citrus, but it is easy to produce antagonism with citrus. The application of agricultural silicone additives can greatly improve the efficacy of gibberellin, and the amount of gibberellin can also be reduced to 1/10


2.4 Application in insecticides and acaricides
The stomata of insects are very similar to the stomata of leaves. Silicone surfactants can reduce the surface tension of the solution, allowing the liquid to penetrate into the trachea of insects, making them dead. It is of great significance as an insecticide auxiliary and synergist.
