  • Herbicidal compositions
    Patent number: 8791050
    Abstract: A herbicide combination comprising of components (A) and (B) exhibit synergistic herbicidal effects, where (A) is one or more herbicides selected from the group consisting of heteroaryloxy- and aryloxy-phenoxypropionic acids, their salts and esters and cyclohexanediones, and (B) is one or more herbicides selected from the group consisting of (B1) herbicides which are selective in rice, mainly against monocotyledonous plants, (B2) herbicides which are selective in rice, mainly against dicotyledonous harmful plants and cyperaceae, (B3) herbicides which are selective in rice, mainly against cyperaceae and (B4) herbicides which are selective in rice, mainly against monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous plants and cyperaceae.

  • Combinations of crop protection agents with organic or inorganic carrier materials
    Publication number: 20050266996
    Abstract: The present invention describes the use of a combination of an agrochemically active compound and a solid carrier material which surrounds the active compound, to suppress antagonistic interactions in a mixture comprising the active compound surrounded by the carrier material, and at least one further agrochemically active compound. Preferred formulations comprising such a combination include herbicides combined with a carrier material together with a safener and/or a growth regulator. Using the formulations according to the present invention, it is possible to suppress antagonistic interactions between different active compounds.
