  • Publication number: 20060116290
    Abstract: The stability of a particulate suspension comprising an aqueous phase containing substantially no miscible organic solvent having suspended therein an agrochemical solid substantially insoluble in said aqueous phase is enhanced by (i) forming a polymeric stabiliser having a hydrophilic moiety and a hydrophobic moiety by polymerising a plurality of vinylic monomers, not being exclusively vinylic esters or their hydrolysed products, at least some of which contain functional groups capable of undergoing cross-linking reactions and (ii) reacting said polymeric stabiliser with one or more substances contained (dissolved or suspended) in the aqueous phase capable of undergoing a cross-linking reaction with said functional groups, wherein the ratio by weight of (a) the polymeric stabiliser prior to cross-linking to (b) the suspended agrochemical is less than 1 part of polymeric stabiliser per 5 parts of suspended agrochemical.
