Description

β-Cypermethrin is a synthetic pyrethroid insecticide known for its high efficacy and broad-spectrum activity. This compound is valued for its potent neurotoxic action against a wide range of insect pests, providing rapid knockdown and long-lasting residual control. It is a critical active ingredient for manufacturers in the agricultural, public health, and animal health sectors seeking reliable pest management solutions.

Application

• Agricultural Insecticides: Formulated for the control of lepidopteran, coleopteran, and dipteran pests in crops such as cotton, cereals, fruits, and vegetables.
• Public Health Pest Control: Used in mosquito control programs, including indoor residual spraying and treatment of mosquito nets to combat vector-borne diseases.
• Animal Husbandry: Incorporated into ectoparasiticide products for controlling ticks, lice, and flies on livestock and in animal housing.
• Household & Professional Pest Management: A key component in insecticide sprays, coils, and vaporizers for controlling cockroaches, ants, flies, and other domestic pests.
• Stored Product Protection: Applied to protect grains and other stored commodities from infestation by beetles and moths.
• Termite Control: Used in soil treatment and wood preservation formulations for pre- and post-construction termite management.

Quality Control

Our β-Cypermethrin is manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Quality is verified through comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for assay and impurity profiling, GC for residual solvents, and physical parameter checks. We provide full traceability and Certificates of Analysis (COA) compliant with FAO and WHO specifications for pesticide active ingredients.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at temperatures between 15°C and 25°C. This material is light-sensitive and easily oxidized; it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term stability. Keep away from heat, sparks, open flames, and incompatible materials.
