Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of pesticides, and in particular to a diuron granule and a production process thereof. Background Art

[0002] Diuron, as a broad-spectrum urea herbicide, is widely used for non-selective weed control in crops such as sugarcane and cotton.

[0003] During the granulation process of traditional diuron formulations (such as wettable powders and suspension concentrates), the physical mixing of diuron technical with carriers (such as diatomaceous earth and bentonite) easily generates micron-sized dust, which not only causes loss of the active ingredient but also poses a serious health hazard to operators. Furthermore, conventional carriers have a low specific surface area, with drug loading rates generally below 50%, resulting in increased drug usage per unit area and increasing the environmental burden.

[0004] At the same time, existing granules mostly use single-layer coating technology, such as the ethyl cellulose coating disclosed in the patent document with publication number EP2868155B1. Its release behavior is significantly affected by environmental factors. For example, when the soil moisture is greater than 70% during the rainy season, the drug burst release rate is as high as 23.5%, resulting in the risk of drug damage. Under drought conditions, the coating film degrades slowly, and the effective period is only 60-80 days, requiring multiple reapplications, which increases labor costs.

[0005] To solve the above problems, the existing technology has proposed improvement measures. For example, the patent document with publication number CN105175433A proposes using mesoporous silica as a carrier. Although the drug loading rate is increased to 65%, the surface silanol group and the diuron molecules undergo irreversible adsorption, resulting in an actual release rate of only 42%-48%; the patent document with publication number CN107698770A uses pH-responsive polymer coating, but the soil pH fluctuation range is small, the controlled release effect is limited, and the field persistence period is only extended by 15 days.

Through directional hydrolysis by α-amylase combined with supercritical CO2 pore expansion treatment, the specific surface area of the carrier is increased, the porosity is increased, and the drug loading limit of conventional carriers is broken through, thereby improving the drug loading rate.

[0040] 2. The binder in the diuron granules of the present invention introduces CTAB intercalated modified attapulgite clay, which increases the interlayer spacing. The surface hydroxyl groups form a hydrogen bond network with the diuron molecules, which greatly improves the compressive strength of the particles and shortens the granulation time.

[0041] 3. The coating of the diuron granules of the present invention adopts an inner and outer double-layer coating. The inner layer contains nano-titanium dioxide with anatase TiO2 (photocatalytic active site) and rutile TiO2 (ultraviolet shielding function) compounded in a ratio of 7:3. The membrane porosity can be dynamically adjusted under light conditions, so that the drug release rate is positively correlated with the field light intensity; the outer layer of diatomaceous earth microspheres acts as a physical barrier. When the soil moisture reaches a certain level, it absorbs water and expands to produce microcracks, which can achieve humidity-responsive release, thereby increasing its lasting effect.
