Description

Bis(2-Hydroxyethyl)Ammonium 2-(2,4-Dichlorophenoxy)Propionate is a specialized ammonium salt derivative of the phenoxy herbicide 2,4-DP (dichlorprop). This compound is valued for its enhanced solubility and formulation stability compared to the free acid form, making it a key intermediate in the production of advanced agricultural chemicals. It is primarily required by agrochemical manufacturers and formulators developing selective, post-emergence herbicide solutions for broadleaf weed control in cereal crops, turf, and non-crop areas.

Application

• Primary Intermediate for Herbicide Synthesis: Serves as a crucial building block in the manufacturing of formulated 2,4-DP (dichlorprop) salt-based herbicides.
• Selective Weed Control Formulations: Used in creating products for controlling broadleaf weeds in wheat, barley, oats, and rye.
• Turf and Ornamental Management: Incorporated into professional lawn care products for managing weeds in grasses.
• Industrial Vegetation Control: A component in herbicides used for managing vegetation along railways, roadways, and utility rights-of-way.
• Research & Development: Employed in agrochemical R&D for developing new herbicidal compositions and studying structure-activity relationships.
• Formulation Aid: Its salt form improves compatibility and tank-mix stability in complex agricultural formulations.

Quality Control

Our Bis(2-Hydroxyethyl)Ammonium 2-(2,4-Dichlorophenoxy)Propionate is produced under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting key parameters are available upon request, providing full traceability and compliance with relevant industry standards for agrochemical intermediates.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture.
