Description

Metsulfuron CAS NO 79510-48-8 is a selective, systemic sulfonylurea herbicide known for its high potency at low application rates. It is a critical active ingredient for broad-spectrum weed control in cereal crops and non-crop areas. This compound is essential for agricultural professionals and formulators seeking effective, long-lasting solutions to manage a wide range of broadleaf and grassy weeds.

Application

• Cereal Crop Protection: Selective post-emergence control of broadleaf weeds and some grasses in wheat, barley, oats, and rye.
• Non-Crop Area Management: Effective for total vegetation control in industrial sites, railways, roadsides, and utility rights-of-way.
• Pasture and Rangeland: Used for the management of invasive brush and weed species to improve forage quality.
• Turf Management: Applied in certain turfgrass settings for selective weed control.
• Agrochemical Formulation: Serves as a key active ingredient in the manufacturing of various herbicide products, including wettable powders (WP) and water-dispersible granules (WG).
• Forestry: Utilized in site preparation and conifer release programs to control competing vegetation.

Quality Control

Our Metsulfuron is manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Every lot is analyzed against rigorous internal specifications using advanced techniques like HPLC. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to guarantee it meets the stringent requirements of agrochemical formulation.

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 product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); keep the original container tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect stability and performance.
