Description

Chloropicrin/Methyl Bromide Mixture CAS NO 8004-09-9 is a potent fumigant formulation combining the biocidal properties of chloropicrin and methyl bromide. This mixture is engineered for superior efficacy in eradicating a broad spectrum of soil-borne pests, pathogens, and weed seeds. It is a critical solution for agricultural producers, commodity storage facilities, and quarantine treatment operations requiring deep-penetrating and rapid-acting pest control.

Application

• Pre-plant soil fumigation in high-value agriculture (e.g., strawberries, tomatoes, nurseries) to control nematodes, fungi, and insects.
• Commodity and structural fumigation for stored grains, timber, and in food processing facilities to eliminate infestations.
• Quarantine and pre-shipment (QPS) treatments for international trade compliance, ensuring pest-free export of agricultural products.
• Replacement for methyl bromide in critical use scenarios where alternatives are not technically or economically feasible.
• Soil sterilization in research greenhouses and for potting media to ensure clean growing conditions.

Quality Control

Our Chloropicrin/Methyl Bromide Mixture is produced and handled under strict quality protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and efficacy. We adhere to relevant international guidelines for fumigant formulations. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing the precise ratio of active ingredients, purity, and critical physical properties are provided with every shipment to guarantee performance and regulatory compliance.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed, approved pressure-rated container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated, dedicated area away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and incompatible materials. Due to its highly volatile nature, storage temperature should be maintained below 25°C (77°F). Keep separated from strong oxidizers, reducing agents, and metals.
