Description

Formetanate Hydrochloride is a carbamate acaricide and insecticide known for its specific activity against mites and certain insect pests. Its value lies in providing effective crop protection solutions, particularly in integrated pest management (IPM) programs. This product is essential for agricultural producers, formulators, and research institutions focused on developing and applying targeted acaricidal treatments. Formetanate Hydrochloride CAS NO 23422-53-9 is a key technical material for manufacturing professional-grade agricultural formulations.

Application

• Agricultural Acaricide: Primary use for controlling phytophagous mites (e.g., spider mites, rust mites) on a variety of fruit, nut, and ornamental crops.
• Insecticide: Effective against certain insect pests such as aphids, leafhoppers, and thrips in combination with its acaricidal action.
• Crop Protection Formulations: Serves as the active technical ingredient (TI) in the manufacture of soluble concentrates (SL), wettable powders (WP), and other commercial pesticide formulations.
• Integrated Pest Management (IPM): Used as a rotational product in resistance management strategies due to its specific mode of action as a carbamate.
• Professional Horticulture and Viticulture: Applied in managed environments like greenhouses and vineyards for precise pest control.
• Research & Development: Used as a reference standard or active material in agrochemical research, efficacy studies, and environmental fate testing.

Quality Control

Our Formetanate Hydrochloride technical material is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency meet defined specifications for agrochemical use. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing assay, impurity profile, and physical parameters is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance.

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 material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); therefore, the original container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption and potential degradation. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
