from april 25 to 29, bluestar elkem silicones will participate in the 2022 international symposium on agrochemical additives (isaa) in bordeaux, france, one of the largest markets of agrochemicals and additives in europe. at this seminar, one of the most significant events in the industry, experts from the whole industry gathered to discuss the challenges faced today and in the future, understand market development, solve problems, and establish cooperative relations with peers in the value chain. furthermore, participants can also learn about the latest agrochemical technology and the latest research and progress in agrochemicals.
experts from bluestar elkem silicones will discuss specific application demands and show the latest products silcolapse™ clear 30 and silcolapse™ sp ultra 2, during the meeting.
by helping agrochemical producers increase productivity and improving the spreading and wetting properties of the products for crops, the product solution of bluestar elkem silicones is suitable for the scientific application of many crops, such as herbicides, fungicides, pesticides, plant nutrients and plant growth regulators, pest control products for household and horticulture, and crop nutrition products (special fertilizer). among them, silcolapse™ and bluesil™ products can prevent, reduce or eliminate foam during the preparation and application of crop protection and crop nutrition products, which improves the spreading and wetting performance of plants and saves water, thus increasing productivity and protecting crops. all products of bluestar elkem silicones meet the requirements of relevant international regulations and standards related to the human body and environment. in particular, the silcolapse™ product can also be used as a tank-mix adjuvant to optimize the production, processing, and packaging of the formula and its application in farmland.
foam is the medium between two phases, and the gas is dispersed in the whole continuous fluid phase. the formation of foam will lead to process and equipment failure and even endanger the safety and environment. therefore, foam control is a critical issue faced by manufacturers, involving many industries such as crop protection, oil and gas, pulping, chemical processing, sewage treatment, recycling, textile and leather, food processing, and cleaning products. with years of experience and technical expertise, the r&d team of bluestar elkem silicones has developed silicone defoamers and processing adjuvants, meeting a variety of technical requirements.
