Omex SW7 Adjuvants 1L

SW7 is a silicon wetter registered pesticide and foliar adjuvant, register number A0875. SW7 improves the uptake of plant protection products and foliar nutrient, particularly on crops that are difficult to achieve good coverage with wazy or tight layers of leaves or dense canopies. SW7 is an emulsifiable concentrate formulation containing alkoxylated alcohols and silicon. The silicon-oxygen bonds are hydrophobic and the organic clusters are hydrophilic, creating a superior wetting agent, which spreads quickly to cover a large surface area—greater than conventional surfactants.

Also at the higher rate, SW7 can supply silicon to the crop. Silicon is widely recognised as a beneficial element to many crops. It is transported in the xylem and deposited in the epidermal cell walls. It complexes with calcium to help strengthen cell walls and also helps to alleviate abiotic and biotic stress. 

• Silicon Wetter
• Improved Pesticide Uptake
• Improved Foliar Nutrition Uptake
• Registered Approval
• Excellent coverage of waxy and difficult to wet surfaces

Use
To  improve uptake of plant protection products and foliar nutrients on crops that are difficult to achieve good coverage, with waxy or tight layers of leaves or dense canopies. 

Crops
All horticultural crops especially fruit, protected edibles and protected salad crops.

Directions for Use 

• Use where good leaf coverage is required. Always consult the appropriate nutrient or plant protection product (PPP) guide before use. SW7 is suitable with both hard and soft water.
• Use 0.05-0.1% dilution in a minimum of 100 L/ha water. Use the higher rate on waxy leaves, dense canopies and mature crops.
• The spray tank should be filled with half the required water. Add the required amount of SW7 to the water before adding any PPP or nutrients, maintain constant agitation. Add remaining water to correct dilution and spray.
