Wetting and Sticking Agent

Features:

• Long shelf life
• Water soluble
• Odorless

Objective:

• The objective of designing FM 420 is to attack the hydrophobic nature of the foliage from various angles while imparting other benefits to the farmer

Advantages: DIKO WET offers following benefits to the farmers:

• Lowers the surface tension of the spray solution so that the spray solution is retained on the leaves and does not fall off in the form of droplets
• Spreads the spray solution on the total surface area of the leaves thus reducing the volume of spray solution required
• Ensures complete wetting of the leaves thus increasing the efficacy of the toxicant
• Helps in making fine even dispersion of the toxicant in spray solution and prevents sedimentation
• Where the toxicant is used through soil application, it ensures quick absorption and deeper penetration of the solution in the soil

Dose:

• Foliar application 0.05-0.1% of spray solution (0.5-1.0gm/litre)
• Soil application 0.1%-0.2% of solution (1-2gm/litre)

Method of Use:

• Once the spray solution is prepared simply add DIKO WET to the solution and mix well till homogenized

Applications:

• DIKO WET acts as a spreader, sticker, wetting, dispersing and penetrating agent for foliar as well as soil applications
• It is compatible to most of the toxicants, micronutrients, plant growth promoters etc and does not interfere with their emulsion/solution stability
• It does not react chemically with most of the agrochemicals and so does not affect their chemical stability
• It is therefore highly recommended to add DIKO WET in required dosage while preparing agrochemical solutions/ emulsions whether for foliar or soil application to increase affectivity of the agrochemical by as much as up to 50%
