Description

2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic Acid Diethanolamine Salt is a water-soluble amine salt formulation of the widely used synthetic auxin 2,4-D. This specific salt form offers enhanced handling characteristics and solubility for precise formulation in agricultural and research settings. It is primarily utilized as a selective systemic herbicide for broadleaf weed control in various crop systems. Industries requiring reliable and effective plant growth regulation, including commercial agriculture, turf management, and horticultural research, depend on this high-quality intermediate.

Application

• Selective Herbicide Formulation: Core ingredient in post-emergence herbicide products for controlling broadleaf weeds in cereal crops (e.g., wheat, corn, rice), turfgrass, and pastures.
• Turf and Lawn Care: Used in professional and consumer lawn care products for the management of dandelions, clover, and other common broadleaf weeds.
• Agricultural Research & Development: Serves as a critical standard and active ingredient in R&D for developing new agrochemical formulations and studying plant hormone physiology.
• Industrial Vegetation Management: Employed in non-crop areas such as railways, roadsides, and industrial sites for vegetation control.
• Synthesis Intermediate: Used as a key starting material or intermediate in the organic synthesis of more complex agrochemical compounds.
