Outstanding Surface Activity

Agricultural silicone oil products stand out in the agricultural field due to their unique surface activity. In the molecular structure of silicone oil, the silicon-oxygen bond endows it with an extremely low surface tension. During agricultural spraying operations, when a silicone oil-containing adjuvant is added to a pesticide or fertilizer solution, the solution can quickly spread on the surface of plant leaves. For example, a traditional pesticide solution may form water droplets that roll off the leaves, unable to cover them fully. However, after adding a silicone oil adjuvant, the solution can spread evenly into a thin liquid film, greatly increasing the contact area with the leaves. This characteristic not only improves the utilization rate of pesticides and fertilizers, reducing waste, but also ensures that the agents can play their roles more comprehensively. Whether it is for pest and disease control or promoting plant nutrient absorption, better results can be achieved.

Enhanced Penetration Performance

Silicone oil has good penetration ability, which is crucial for agricultural applications. The surface of plant leaves usually has a cuticle layer, which hinders the absorption of pesticides and fertilizers to a certain extent. Agricultural silicone oil products can help the solution penetrate this cuticle layer by virtue of their special molecular structure. Taking fungicides as an example, after adding a silicone oil adjuvant, the fungicide can penetrate into the interior of the leaves more quickly, coming into contact with pathogenic bacteria, thus more effectively inhibiting the growth and reproduction of the bacteria. In terms of fertilizer application, silicone oil helps nutrient elements enter plant cells more quickly, accelerating the absorption and transformation of nutrients by plants, promoting the growth and development of plants, making crops more robust, and improving yield and quality.

Wide Applicability and Economic Benefits

Agricultural silicone oil products have an extremely wide range of applications. Whether it is field crops such as wheat, corn, and rice, or cash crops such as vegetables, fruits, and flowers, they can all benefit from the application of silicone oil adjuvants. Under different planting environments and crop requirements, silicone oil can play a role in optimizing the use of pesticides and fertilizers. From an economic perspective, although adding a silicone oil adjuvant will increase the cost to a certain extent, due to the improved utilization rate of pesticides and fertilizers, the amount used is reduced. At the same time, the yield of crops increases and the quality improves, resulting in significant comprehensive economic benefits. For example, when using pesticides with a silicone oil adjuvant in an orchard, the incidence of pests and diseases on fruits is reduced, and the size and sweetness of the fruits are increased, making them more competitive in the market and correspondingly increasing the income of growers.
