Product Description

The addition of Penetrator® Plus to a spraytank improves pesticide application by modifying the deposition and wetting characteristics of the spray solution and adjusting the pH of alkaline waters. Penetrator Plus is a unique blend of light to mid-range petroleum oil and nonionic emulsifiers. It is designed for use with a range of pesticides recommending a crop oil concentrate.

Key Features

  • Increases canopy deposition
  • Improves spreading & wetting
  • Reduces evaporation
  • Improves uptake by plants

Technical Information

Penetrator Plus is a nonionic blend of special surfactants, buffering agents, and a highly refined spray oil and is designed for use with a broad range of pesticides. Subject to the cautionary statements set forth in the Directions For Use, Penetrator Plus may be used with pesticides and/or fertilizer products. The addition of Penetrator Plus to a spray tank improves pesticide application by modifying the wetting and deposition characteristics of the spray solution resulting in a more even and uniform spray deposit and by adjusting the pH of alkaline waters and minimizing hydrolysis of pesticides which tend to decompose in alkaline spray solutions. Penetrator Plus can positively affect pesticide spray application and pesticide efficacy. Optimum application and effects, however, can be influenced by the crop, pest, spray equipment, spray volume, pressure, droplet size, spray mixture, and environmental factors. Consequently, it is recommended that careful observations of the spray deposit be made and adjuvant concentrations be adjusted accordingly.
