TABLET OR CAPSULE FOR RELEASING ETHYLENE GAS AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING GROWTH OF HORTICULTURAL PRODUCT USING THE SAME

摘要

The present invention relates to a tablet or a capsule releasing ethylene gas and a method for controlling the growth of a horticultural product using the same. More specifically, the tablet or the capsule comprises: ethephon; and one or more kinds of diluting agents selected from a group consisting of Prosolv SMCC50, HPMC, Cosscamellose, LHPC, Kaolin, White carbon, and Dicalite. According to the present invention, the tablet or the capsule can make a large income by being used in a fresh agricultural product, a process industry, and a horticultural product production farm as a weak point of an existing ethylene gas pretreatment technology and an ethephon liquid medicine usage used to improve quality after harvesting the horticultural product can be overcome. In addition, the tablet or the capsule according to the present invention can be usefully used as an afterripening accelerator in accordance with an import increase of tropical fruits. Furthermore, as being quantified in compliance with a specific standard, the table or the capsule according to the present invention can be usefully used when performing a study related to ethylene gas in a university or a research institute, so an ethylene-related industry will be activated.
