Advantages
BRANDT® TriTek is Safe and Effective
Agricultural spray oils are effective pest control mechanisms, but their efficacy, as well as hazards, are directly related to how long the oil remains on the plant. Most light oils (boiling point less than 179° C) are considered to be less effective or non-pesticidal because they don’t remain on the plant long enough to suffocate the pests, while most heavy oils (boiling point greater than 296° C) are considered to be hazardous to plants.
BRANDT® TriTek is in the optimal “narrow” range, providing superior pesticidal activity and durability without the hazards known to heavier oils.
Why is BRANDT® TriTek Pre-Emulsified?
BRANDT® TriTek is pre-emulsified to produce more stable and effective results. Under high speed shearing, the BRANDT® TriTek process breaks down the oil droplets, reducing them from typically 700 microns in diameter to approximately 50 microns (1/14th its original size).
