Ten peer-reviewed papers address the latest information on pestcontrol technologies, including:
• Development of ASTM method for measurement of extensionalviscosity of dilute polymer solutions
• Development of new cationic surfactant based emulsi¿able oiladjuvant that exhibits improved properties upon dilution in highelectrolyte spray mixtures
• Review of attapulgite clays as rheology modi¿ers in aqueoussuspension products
• Use of ammonium sulfate adjuvants containing high molecularweight polymers as deposition aids for glyphosate spraysolutions
• Interaction of certain soluble micronutrients and waterconditioners with glyphosate to induce antagonism in spraymixtures.
• Interaction between adjuvants and spray nozzles and the resultingimpact on herbicide ef¿cacy
• Droplet spreading behavior on synthetic and natural surfaces
• Construction of more strongly predictive mathematical sprayretention models for plant foliage
• Correlation established between three different laser-baseddroplet measurement techniques
• Interactions between air induction nozzles, low pressure nozzles,and drift reduction adjuvants
