Description

Dimethylammonium 2,4,5-Trichlorophenoxyacetate is the dimethylammonium salt of the phenoxyacetic acid derivative 2,4,5-T. This compound is a key intermediate and formulation component in the production of selective herbicides. It is primarily utilized by agrochemical manufacturers and formulators seeking a stable, soluble salt form of this active ingredient for crop protection solutions. Its properties make it suitable for creating effective post-emergence weed control products.

Application

• Agrochemical Intermediate: Primary use as a key synthetic precursor or salt form in the manufacture of phenoxy herbicide active ingredients.
• Herbicide Formulation: Incorporated into commercial herbicide products for broadleaf weed control in agricultural and non-crop settings.
• Selective Weed Management: Used in formulations targeting weeds in cereal crops, grasslands, and turf management.
• Industrial Vegetation Control: Component in herbicides for managing vegetation along railways, roadways, and utility rights-of-way.
• Research & Development: Serves as a standard or reference compound in agricultural chemistry research for developing new plant growth regulators.

Quality Control

Our production of Dimethylammonium 2,4,5-Trichlorophenoxyacetate adheres to stringent quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and purity for industrial applications. Each lot is analyzed against comprehensive specifications, including assay, impurity profile, and physical parameters. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with every shipment to guarantee supply reliability and technical compliance for your formulation processes.

Storage

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