Description

Foramsulfuron is a selective, systemic sulfonylurea herbicide belonging to the acetolactate synthase (ALS) inhibitor class. This compound is valued for its high efficacy and low application rates, providing cost-effective and environmentally responsible weed control solutions. It is primarily utilized by agricultural chemical formulators and producers serving the large-scale corn (maize) farming industry.

Application

• Post-emergence weed control in field corn (maize): Effectively manages a broad spectrum of annual and perennial grasses and broadleaf weeds.
• Key ingredient in formulated herbicide products: Used in the manufacturing of commercial liquid and dry mix formulations for agricultural use.
• Control of resistant weed biotypes: An important tool in integrated weed management (IWM) programs to combat herbicide resistance.
• Industrial and non-crop area weed management: Applied in areas such as railways, industrial sites, and utility rights-of-way (subject to local regulatory approval).
• Research and development: Serves as a reference standard and active ingredient for agrochemical R&D and regulatory studies.

Quality Control

Our Foramsulfuron is manufactured under a strict quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. The product undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for assay and impurity profiling, to meet typical technical-grade specifications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with each shipment to guarantee compliance with your specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect stability and performance.
