Description

Isoxaben CAS NO 82558-50-7 is a selective pre-emergence herbicide belonging to the benzamide chemical class. It is valued for its high efficacy in controlling a broad spectrum of broadleaf weeds in various turf, ornamental, and agricultural settings. This compound is a critical tool for professional landscapers, turf managers, and agricultural producers seeking long-lasting residual weed control with minimal impact on desirable grasses.

Application

• Turf and Ornamental Weed Control: Pre-emergent control of weeds like chickweed, henbit, and spurge in lawns, golf courses, and landscape beds.
• Nursery and Greenhouse Production: Used in container-grown ornamentals and tree production to maintain clean, weed-free growing media.
• Agricultural Crops: Selective weed management in certain fruit orchards, vineyards, and established perennial crops.
• Industrial Vegetation Management: Control of invasive broadleaf weeds along rights-of-way, fence lines, and non-crop areas.
• Professional Landscape Maintenance: Foundation for integrated weed management programs for commercial and residential properties.
• Formulation Ingredient: Serves as the active technical material for formulating branded end-use herbicide products.
