The application of solubility parameters to agricultural chemical problems

摘要

Whenever a new active ingredient is synthesized or an old active requires reformulation of optimization, the first question which arises is how to (re) formulate it into a viable commercial product. Industry experience dictates that, in most cases, the preferred formulatioin type is a liquid formulation containing a solution (SL or EC) of the new active. But how is the best solvent found?
