2. Pesticide formulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pesticide_formulation

   The biological activity of a pesticide, be it chemical or biological in nature, is determined by its active ingredient (AI - also called the active substance). Pesticide products very rarely consist of the pure active ingredient. The AI is usually formulated with other materials (adjuvents and co-formulants) and this is the product as sold, but ...

3. Mixing ratio - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mixing_Ratio

   Two binary solutions of different compositions or even two pure components can be mixed with various mixing ratios by masses, moles, or volumes. The mass fraction of the resulting solution from mixing solutions with masses m 1 and m 2 and mass fractions w 1 and w 2 is given by:

4. Chlordane - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chlordane

   Chlordane, or chlordan, is an organochlorine compound that was used as a pesticide. It is a white solid. In the United States, chlordane was used for termite-treatment of approximately 30 million homes until it was banned in 1988. [4] Chlordane was banned 10 years earlier for food crops like corn and citrus, and on lawns and domestic gardens. [5]

5. Acephate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acephate

   Acephate is an organophosphate foliar and soil insecticide of moderate persistence with residual systemic activity of about 10–15 days at the recommended use rate. It is used primarily for control of aphids, including resistant species, in vegetables (e.g. potatoes, carrots, greenhouse tomatoes, and lettuce) and in horticulture (e.g. on roses and greenhouse ornamentals).

6. Dilution ratio - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dilution_ratio

   For example, in a solution with a 1:5 dilution ratio, entails combining 1 unit volume of solute (the material to be diluted) with 5 unit volumes of the solvent to give 6 total units of total volume. In photographic development, dilutions are normally given in a '1+x' format.

7. Concentration - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concentration

   The solutions on the left are more dilute, compared to the more concentrated solutions on the right. Often in informal, non-technical language, concentration is described in a qualitative way, through the use of adjectives such as "dilute" for solutions of relatively low concentration and "concentrated" for solutions of relatively high ...

8. List of herbicides - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_herbicides

   The industry-sponsored Herbicide Resistance Action Committee (HRAC) advises on the use of herbicides in crop protection and classifies the available compounds according to their chemical structures and mechanism of action so as to manage the risks of pesticide resistance developing. [4]

9. Equivalent concentration - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalent_concentration

   Normality is defined as the number of gram or mole equivalents of solute present in one liter of solution.The SI unit of normality is equivalents per liter (Eq/L). = where N is normality, m sol is the mass of solute in grams, EW sol is the equivalent weight of solute, and V soln is the volume of the entire solution in liters.
