Description

Empenthrin is a synthetic pyrethroid insecticide known for its potent knockdown effect against flying insects. Its value lies in its high efficacy at low application rates and its favorable safety profile for use in sensitive environments. This compound is essential for manufacturers and formulators in the public health and household insecticide sectors, particularly for products targeting mosquitoes, flies, and other nuisance pests. Its specific properties make it a key active ingredient in space sprays, aerosols, and mosquito coils for global vector control programs.

Application

• Public Health Insecticides: Primary use in formulations for mosquito and fly control in residential and public areas.
• Household Insecticide Products: Key active ingredient in aerosol sprays, electric vaporizer mats, and mosquito coils.
• Vector Control Programs: Utilized in large-scale fogging and space spraying operations to combat disease vectors like mosquitoes.
• Professional Pest Management: Incorporated into products for use by pest control operators in commercial and food-handling establishments.
• Animal Health: Used in certain ectoparasiticide formulations for environmental control of pests in animal housing.
• Material Protection: Potential application in protecting stored materials from insect infestation, though secondary to public health uses.

Quality Control

Our Empenthrin is manufactured under a strict quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Quality assurance includes rigorous testing against established specifications for identity, potency, and impurity profiles. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting key parameters such as assay, related substances, and physical characteristics are provided with each shipment to support your quality and regulatory requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Due to its sensitivity to oxidation, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere for long-term preservation. Keep container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent moisture ingress and volatility loss.
