Description

Ammonium 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetate is the ammonium salt form of the widely recognized herbicide 2,4-D. This formulation offers enhanced water solubility and handling characteristics compared to the free acid, making it a versatile active ingredient for modern agricultural formulations. It is primarily utilized by agrochemical manufacturers and formulators for the production of selective, systemic herbicides targeting broadleaf weeds in cereal crops, turf, and non-crop areas.

Application

• Selective Herbicide Formulation: Primary active ingredient in post-emergence herbicides for controlling broadleaf weeds in wheat, corn, rice, and other cereal crops.
• Turf and Lawn Care: Used in commercial and residential lawn management products for weed control in grasses.
• Pasture and Rangeland Management: Key component in herbicides for managing invasive broadleaf weeds in grazing areas.
• Aquatic Weed Control: Employed in approved formulations for managing undesirable vegetation in waterways and drainage systems.
• Industrial Vegetation Management: Used in non-crop areas such as railways, roadsides, and utility rights-of-way for total vegetation control.
• Agrochemical Intermediates: Serves as a chemical intermediate for the synthesis of other ester or salt formulations of 2,4-D.

Quality Control

Our Ammonium 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetate is manufactured under a stringent quality management system. Each batch is tested to ensure it meets precise specifications for active ingredient content, purity, and impurity profiles, consistent with FAO and other international agricultural chemical standards. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing assay, identity, and physical parameters is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); keep the original container tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can lead to caking or degradation.
