  • Patent number: 8663669
    Abstract: In order to replace methyl bromide in all the uses thereof in soil or substrate treatment, the invention relates to the use of at least one sulphur compound having general formula: wherein R represents an alkenyl or alkyl radical, n is equal to 0, 1 or 2, x is a number between 0 and 4 and R? represents an alkenyl or alkyl radical or, only if n=x=0, a hydrogen or alkali-metal atom. The sulphur compounds (in particular dimethyldisulphide) can be applied according to standard soil treatment methods (by injection, spraying, dripping, sprinkling) and said compounds have no phototoxic effects.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 20, 2011
    Date of Patent: March 4, 2014
    Assignee: Arkema France
    Inventors: Thierry Aubert, Jacques Auger

  • Patent number: 8101667
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to the pesticidal treatment of stored foodstuffs, chambers, structures and works of art, using a volatile sulphur compound of general formula: in which R represents an alkyl or alkenyl radical containing from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, n is equal to 0, 1 or 2, x is a number ranging from 0 to 4, and R? represents an alkyl or alkenyl radical containing from 1 to 4 carbon atoms or, only if n=x=0, a hydrogen atom. These sulphur compounds (in particular dimethyl disulphide) are applied by nebulization directly to the material to be treated.
