Description

Chlorthiophos is an organophosphorus compound widely recognized for its potent pesticidal activity. This chemical is valued for its efficacy in controlling a broad spectrum of agricultural pests, contributing to crop protection and yield optimization. It is primarily utilized by agrochemical formulators and manufacturers developing pest control solutions for the global agricultural sector. Our supply ensures high purity and batch-to-batch consistency to meet stringent formulation requirements.

Application

Chlorthiophos serves as a key active ingredient in various agricultural and specialty pest management formulations. Its primary applications include:

• Agricultural Insecticides: Formulation into emulsifiable concentrates (EC) and wettable powders (WP) for foliar application against sucking and chewing pests.
• Crop Protection: Used in the protection of key crops such as cotton, vegetables, and fruits from insect infestations.
• Public Health Pest Control: Potential use in controlled environments for managing insect vectors, subject to local regulatory approvals.
• Technical Grade Material: Served as a high-purity intermediate for further synthesis of advanced agrochemical products.
• Research & Development: Utilized in chemical and agricultural research for studying mode of action and developing new formulations.

Quality Control

Our Chlorthiophos is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure it meets precise specifications for identity, purity, and impurity profiles. We provide Certificates of Analysis (COA) with each shipment, detailing key parameters such as assay and relevant impurities. Our quality commitment ensures material suitability for industrial-scale agrochemical manufacturing.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area away from heat sources and incompatible materials. Due to its properties, the material should be kept under conditions that minimize oxidation. Recommended storage temperature is between 15°C and 25°C. Keep container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent moisture ingress and volatilization.
