As a widely used herbicide, glyphosate plays an important role in agricultural production. However, in the production process of glyphosate, the mixing and stirring of various chemical raw materials easily introduce air, thus generating foam. Therefore, the emergence of glyphosate pesticide defoamer can effectively solve the foam problem.
Application scenarios of glyphosate pesticide defoamer
These foams will bring many adverse effects. First, the foam will affect the spraying accuracy of glyphosate pesticides. A large amount of foam may cause the pesticide to not be sprayed evenly on the target weeds, some areas may be over-sprayed, causing potential harm to the soil and surrounding crops, and some areas may be under-sprayed, and effective weed control cannot be achieved.
The reason why glyphosate pesticide defoamers can effectively deal with foam problems is based on their unique physical and chemical properties. The molecular structure of defoamers usually has a low surface tension. When the defoamer is added to the glyphosate pesticide solution that produces foam, it can quickly diffuse to the surface of the foam liquid film. On the surface of the liquid film, the defoamer molecules will destroy the stability of the foam liquid film.
Glyphosate pesticide defoamers can quickly eliminate the foam that has been produced in a short time, and can control the generation of new foam for a long time. This allows the foam problem to be effectively controlled during the production, dilution and spraying of glyphosate, ensuring the normal use of pesticides.
In short, although glyphosate pesticide defoamers seem to be a small role in the entire glyphosate pesticide use system, they play an important role that cannot be ignored. With the continuous development of agricultural technology, the performance requirements for glyphosate pesticide defoamers will continue to increase. Future defoamers will be more effective, safe and environmentally friendly, further enhancing the role of glyphosate pesticides in agricultural production.
