Patent number: 5171356Abstract: Herbicidally active thiolcarbamates are employed in combination with certain thiolcarbamate, thionocarbamate, thiolcarbamate sulfone, thiolcarbamate sulfoxide, dithiocarbamate or carbamate extender compound, the latter in sufficient quantity to minimize soil degradation and to prolong the soil life of the former. As a result, the herbicidal effectiveness of the thiolcarbamate herbicide is significantly enhanced and prolonged, rendering a single application or multiple applications of the herbicide effective over a longer period of time. Such herbicidal compositions can optionally contain a non-phytotoxic antidotally effective amount of thiolcarbamate herbicide antidote.Type: GrantFiled: June 10, 1991Date of Patent: December 15, 1992Assignee: ICI Americas Inc.Inventors: Ferenc M. Pallos, Reed A. Gray

Patent number: 5011526Abstract: Herbicidally active thiocarbamates are employed in combination with organophosphorothioates and -dithioates and -phosphonothioates, -dithioates and -trithioates, the latter in sufficient quantity to prevent soil degradation of the former. As a result, the herbidical effectiveness of the thiocarbamate is significantly enhanced and prolonged, rendering a single application of the herbicide effective over a longer period of time. Such herbicidal compositions can optionally contain a non-phytotoxic antidotally effective amount of an amide of haloalkanoic or dihaloalkanoic acid.Type: GrantFiled: January 22, 1990Date of Patent: April 30, 1991Assignee: ICI Americas Inc.Inventors: Daniel L.
