Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of pesticide technology, and in particular to a nano insecticide and fungicide based on a biodegradable polymer, and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Wheat root rot is a major disease in wheat production, severely impacting yield and quality. Traditional control methods primarily rely on chemical agents, but existing single-agent solutions suffer from strong resistance, short-lasting effects, and a high risk of phytotoxicity. Fungicides such as difenoconazole and fludioxonil, while effective to some extent, struggle to maintain a broad spectrum and safety profile when used alone. Thiamethoxam, as an insecticide, has not been fully exploited for its synergistic effects against seed-borne diseases. Traditional pesticides, such as the 12% difenoconazole, fludioxonil, and thiamethoxam seed treatment suspension concentrate, suffer from high environmental residues, slow degradation, and significant toxicity to non-target organisms. While existing nanopesticides can improve efficacy, they often utilize non-degradable carriers (such as synthetic polymers), which can easily lead to ecological accumulation with long-term use. Furthermore, the large particle size of conventional suspension concentrates results in limited penetration and targeting. Furthermore, existing seed treatment agents lack systematic optimization for wheat germination rate, root development, and environmental compatibility. A highly effective, safe, environmentally friendly, and sustained-release combination formulation is urgently needed. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of this application is to address the shortcomings of current technology and provide a nano-insecticide based on biodegradable polymers, as well as its preparation method and application. The nano-insecticide based on biodegradable polymers prepared in this application is used for the prevention and control of wheat root rot, aphids, etc., and has the advantages of synergistic enhancement, safety, environmental friendliness and slow release, and has a good prevention and control effect on wheat root rot.
[0004] In the first aspect, the present application provides a nano insecticide and fungicide based on a biodegradable polymer, which adopts the following technical solution: A biodegradable polymer-based nano insecticide and fungicide comprises the following raw materials, measured by weight: 0.2-0.4 parts of difenoconazole, 0.2-0.4 parts of fludioxonil, 11-12 parts of thiamethoxam, 5-6 parts of a wetting and dispersing agent, 3.5-4.5 parts of an antifreeze agent, 3-4 parts of a thickener, 0.2-0.3 parts of a defoaming agent, 4-5 parts of a composite synergist, 8-10 parts of a biodegradable polymer, 0.8-1.2 parts of a preservative, and 60-66 parts of deionized water. The wetting and dispersing agent comprises a dispersant, Morwet D-400, sodium lignin sulfonate, and tristyrylphenol polyoxyethylene ether, and the composite synergist comprises phosphatidylserine and modified silicone.
[0005] By employing the above technical solution, a ternary combination of difenoconazole, fludioxonil, and thiamethoxam synergistically activates sterol synthesis in fungal cell membranes, enhancing the control of root rot. Thiamethoxam, a neonicotinoid insecticide, effectively kills aphids by interfering with the insect nervous system. A specific ratio of these three compounds produces a synergistic effect, enhancing efficacy. Wetting and dispersing agents (such as MORWET D-400, sodium lignin sulfonate, and tristyrylphenol polyoxyethylene ether)—MORWET D-400 (alkylnaphthalene sulfonate polycondensate) stabilizes nanoparticle dispersion through steric hindrance, sodium lignin sulfonate reduces surface tension and enhances particle wettability, and tristyrylphenol polyoxyethylene ether, a nonionic surfactant, enhances emulsion stability—work together to improve the suspension and adhesion properties of the nanopesticide, enhancing field control effectiveness. Composite synergists (such as phosphatidylserine + modified silicone): phosphatidylserine forms a bioadhesive film and prolongs the effective duration; modified silicone: amino groups enhance seed surface adhesion; polyether segments improve permeability, synergistically increasing drug utilization and reducing dosage. Biodegradable polymers (such as polylactic acid or polyhydroxyalkanoates) are used to construct nano-scale sustained-release carriers, achieving sustained release of active ingredients and reducing environmental residues. Thickeners (such as xanthan gum:chitosan:sodium alginate = 5:3:2): xanthan gum provides shear-thinning properties, chitosan enhances the system's antibacterial properties, and sodium alginate improves film-forming properties. This system, through molecular design, achieves a three-level synergistic effect: carrier-active ingredient-adjuvant, enhancing control efficacy while reducing environmental impact, in line with the development of green pesticides.
[0006] Preferably, the mass ratio of difenoconazole, fludioxonil and thiamethoxam is 3:3:114.
[0007] By employing the above technical solution, a specific ratio of difenoconazole, fludioxonil, and thiamethoxam is combined to achieve synergistic and highly effective control of wheat root rot and aphids. This synergistic effect can improve fungicide utilization and reduce drug costs. Difenoconazole (a triazole) and fludioxonil (an pyrrole) inhibit fungi through a dual mechanism of action: difenoconazole blocks ergosterol synthesis (a target of the CYP51 enzyme), while fludioxonil disrupts glucose phosphorylation in the fungus. A 3:3 ratio allows the two to form a complementary fungicidal layer on the seed surface, enhancing the inhibition of root rot pathogens. Thiamethoxam provides a balanced insecticidal and fungicidal effect, with 95% of the effect occurring due to its systemic delivery to all parts of the plant. The LC50 (50% lethal concentration) of neonicotinoid insecticides against aphids (Aphidoidea) is 0.02 mg / L. High doses maintain a long-lasting effect, creating a three-dimensional protective effect with the fungicide, providing both fungicide protection and insecticide control. This ratio achieves the green prevention and control goal of "one-time application - full protection" through precise dosage control, reducing the application frequency by more than 50% compared with conventional pesticides.
[0008] Preferably, the mass ratio of the dispersant Morwet D-400, sodium lignin sulfonate and tristyrylphenol polyoxyethylene ether is 5:2:3-4. Morwet D-400 is an alkylnaphthalene sulfonate polycondensate dispersant produced by Akzo Nobel.
[0009] By employing this technical solution, Morwet D-400, an anionic dispersant, leverages the strong adsorption capacity of alkylnaphthalene sulfonate to form a dense adsorption layer on the nanoparticle surface, providing steric hindrance, improving the suspension stability of the system and preventing nanoparticle sedimentation. It also exhibits excellent compatibility with the biodegradable polymer (polylactic acid) and reduces interfacial tension. Sodium lignin sulfonate, a natural anionic surfactant, reduces the surface tension of the aqueous phase, enhancing wetting and penetration, and provides electrostatic stabilization to prevent particle agglomeration. Its environmentally friendly properties create a synergistic degradation system with the biodegradable polymer. Tristyrylphenol polyoxyethylene ether, a nonionic surfactant, stabilizes the oil / water interface through hydrogen bonding, enhancing the dynamic stability of the emulsion and forming a "charge-complementary" system with the anionic dispersant. Synergistic Mechanism: 1) Dispersion Stability Synergy, Steric Hindrance + Electrostatic Repulsion: The steric hindrance of Morwet D-400 and the electrostatic repulsion of sodium lignin sulfonate work together to stabilize the nanoparticle D50 size at 150±20nm. Wetting-Emulsification Synergy: The rapid wetting of sodium lignin sulfonate combined with the emulsification ability of tristyrylphenol polyoxyethylene ether achieves uniform dispersion of the active ingredient. 2) Improved Environmental Adaptability and Temperature Stability: The cloud point of tristyrylphenol polyoxyethylene ether is ≥75°C. Combined with the thermal stability of Morwet D-400 (decomposition temperature ≥200°C), the nanopesticide remains stable between -5°C and 50°C. Electrolyte Resistance: The chelation effect of sodium lignin sulfonate and the salt tolerance of Morwet D-400 synergize to improve stability in high-hardness water. In short, this ratio achieves the "wetting-dispersion-stabilization" trinity through the scientific combination of anionic / non-ionic surfactants, improves the suspension and adhesion properties of the nanosystem, enhances field control effectiveness, and reduces environmental load, which is in line with the development direction of green pesticide formulations.
[0010] Preferably, the mass ratio of the phosphatidylserine to the modified silicone is 3:4-5.
[0011] By employing this technical solution, phosphatidylserine possesses an amphiphilic structure that forms a thin, sticky protective film on the seed surface. This film adheres to the seed, preventing the active ingredient from penetrating into the soil, enhancing the effectiveness and ensuring long-lasting efficacy. Phosphatidylserine's amphiphilic structure forms a sticky protective film approximately 200-300 nm thick on the seed surface, reducing the loss of active ingredients through soil penetration. The phosphate groups (-PO₄⁻) impart a negative charge to the film, creating an electrostatic attraction with the weakly cationic modified silicone. The natural phospholipid structure enhances affinity with the seed epidermis and promotes germination. The modified silicone's amino groups (-NH₂) form hydrogen bonds with the carboxyl groups (-COOH) on the seed surface, enhancing adhesion. The polyether segments (EO / PO) disrupt the lipid layer of the pathogen's cell membrane, increasing penetration. Phosphatidylserine attracts enzymes secreted by soil microorganisms, activating the fungicide. The amino groups in the modified silicone promote the reaction of the insecticide with the cuticle of the insect's epidermis. In short, this ratio improves the utilization rate of the drug efficacy and the field prevention effect through intermolecular forces and functional complementarity, and has a good preventive and control effect on wheat root rot.
[0012] Preferably, the preparation method of the modified silicone comprises the following steps: S51. Add 60 parts of octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane to 130 parts of deionized water, raise the temperature to 86-90° C., then add 15 parts of N-β-(aminoethyl)-γ-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane, stir for 20-25 minutes, then add 3 parts of XL-50 and 2 parts of XL-90, react at 86-90° C. for 8-10 hours, cool, adjust the pH to 6.8-7.0 with 25% ammonia water, centrifuge, and remove the solvent to obtain an intermediate product; S52. According to parts by mass: blend polypropylene glycol glycidyl ether with the intermediate product, heat to 75-78° C. and react for 1-2 hours to obtain modified silicone.
[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane is first reacted with N-β-(aminoethyl)-γ-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane to obtain an intermediate product into which amino groups are introduced through ring-opening polymerization. The amino groups in the intermediate product are then reacted with polypropylene glycol glycidyl ether containing an epoxy group to achieve the grafting of alkoxy polyether chain segments. A large number of amino groups and long alkoxy chains are introduced into the hydrophobic octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane, achieving hydrophilic modification and making it weakly cationic. This allows the ternary active ingredients (difenoconazole, fludioxonil, and thiamethoxam) to better adhere to the surface of wheat seeds, thereby enhancing the penetration of the ternary active ingredients (difenoconazole, fludioxonil, and thiamethoxam) against root rot and aphids, significantly improving the field control effect, and also increasing wheat yield.
[0014] Preferably, the mass ratio of the polypropylene glycol glycidyl ether to the intermediate product is 11:70-75.
[0015] Preferably, the thickener is prepared by mixing xanthan gum, chitosan and sodium alginate in a mass ratio of 5:3:2; and the biodegradable polymer is one of polylactic acid and polyhydroxyalkanoate.
[0016] Preferably, the preservative is potassium sorbate; the defoaming agent is an organosilicon defoaming agent; and the antifreeze agent is ethylene glycol.
[0017] In a second aspect, the present application provides a method for preparing a nanopesticide based on a biodegradable polymer, using the following technical solution: As a general technical concept, the present application also provides a method for preparing the above-mentioned biodegradable polymer-based nanopesticide, comprising the following steps: S91. Dissolve the biodegradable polymer in acetone according to parts by mass, add difenoconazole, fludioxonil, and thiamethoxam, and ultrasonically disperse for 30-50 minutes; then add deionized water, and emulsify at high shear speed of 8000-12000 rpm for 20-25 minutes to form a nanoemulsion; remove the organic solvent acetone by reduced pressure distillation to obtain a nanoparticle suspension with a particle size of 100-400 nm; S92, adding a wetting dispersant, an antifreeze agent, a thickener, a defoaming agent, a composite synergist, and a preservative to the nanoparticle suspension according to their weight proportions, and pre-dispersing and shearing the mixture at a speed of 3000 rpm for 30 minutes to obtain a mixed solution; S93, subjecting the mixed solution to wet ultrafine grinding, grinding at a rotation speed of 3000 rpm for 4-6 hours, detecting the particle size D90 ≤ 0.2 μm, and filtering to obtain a nano insecticide and fungicide based on a biodegradable polymer.
[0018] In a third aspect, the present application provides an application of a nanopesticide based on a biodegradable polymer, using the following technical solution: As a general technical concept, the present application also provides the above-mentioned biodegradable polymer-based nano insecticide fungicide for use in wheat to prevent and control root rot or aphids.
[0019] In summary, the beneficial technical effects of this application are: 1. Environmental friendliness: Biodegradable polymers (such as PLA or PHA) can degrade within 6-8 months, reducing environmental residues. The use of renewable resources such as sodium lignin sulfonate reduces ecotoxicity.
[0020] 2. Synergistic pest control: Difenoconazole, fludioxonil, and thiamethoxam work synergistically to enhance control effectiveness. Compound synergists (such as phosphatidylserine and modified silicones) enhance long-lasting efficacy and adhesion.
[0021] 3. Nano-controlled sustained release and long-lasting efficacy: Nanoparticles extend the duration of efficacy through a controlled release mechanism. Soil-responsive release matches the disease cycle.
[0022] 4. Optimize the physical properties of the formulation: Improve suspension stability and super-wetting properties. Add antifreeze to ensure low-temperature stability.
[0023] 5. Economic Benefits and Safety: Reduced pesticide costs and dosage per mu. Significant yield increases, with higher thousand-grain weight. Low toxicity and low residue, with minimal impact on non-target organisms.
[0024] 6. Overall field performance: Significantly effective against wheat root rot. Reduces the number of pesticide applications and improves field management efficiency.
[0025] In summary, this application achieves the unity of efficient prevention and control, environmental friendliness and economic benefits through the three-level collaborative design of "nanocarrier-functional adjuvant-active ingredient", breaks through the technical bottleneck of traditional pesticides' "high residue-low efficiency-rapid resistance", and provides innovative solutions for green agriculture.

[0040] Test basis: NY / T1965.3-2013, Guidelines for Determination of the Safety of Pesticides to Crops, Part 3: Indoor Test Methods for Evaluating the Safety of Seed Treatment Agents to Crops. GB / T3543.4-1995, Procedure for Inspection of Crop Seeds – Germination Test. NY / T1965.1-2010, Guidelines for Determination of the Safety of Pesticides to Crops, Part 1: Indoor Test Methods for Evaluating the Safety of Insecticides and Fungicides to Crops.

[0042] The biodegradable polymer-based nanopesticide prepared in Example 4 was subjected to an efficacy experiment. The treatment dosage gradient was set as follows: 1650 mL / 100 kg of seeds, 2475 mL / 100 kg of seeds, 3300 mL / 100 kg of seeds, and 4125 mL / 100 kg of seeds. A treatment without the agent was set as a blank control. A total of 5 treatments were performed, with 4 replicates per treatment.
[0043] Test material preparation: For each wheat variety, weigh five 50g portions of seeds (approximately 1000 seeds). Accurately weigh 0.825, 1.238, 1.65, and 2.063ml of the test agent corresponding to four dose gradients and add sterile water to make 3ml of the solution. Coat the seeds, then air-dry and set aside. A blank control was treated with 3ml of sterile water to simulate the coating treatment and set aside.
[0044] For the wheat germination test, a paper bed was used as the germination bed, and for the wheat emergence test, a 1:1 mixture of peat soil and vermiculite was used. The volumetric flasks, graduated cylinders, glassware, filter paper, and the 1:1 mixture of peat soil and vermiculite used in the test were sterilized and dried before use.
[0045] Test treatment: Seed germination test: 400 wheat seeds treated with each agent and blank control were divided into 4 replicates and placed on a moist sterile filter paper bed in a tray. They were cultured in an incubator at 20°C, relative humidity 60-70%, and a photoperiod of 12L:12D.
[0046] Emergence test: Seedling emergence tests were conducted after the seed germination tests were completed. A 1:1 mixture of peat and vermiculite was quantitatively filled into the 4 / 5 of the plastic pots and watered regularly to keep the soil moist. Two hundred wheat seeds, each treated with each agent and a blank control, were sown four times on the flat soil surface of the pots. The seeds were then covered with 1 cm of soil and incubated in an artificial greenhouse (temperature 20°C, relative humidity 60-70%, photoperiod 12L:12D).

The seedling emergence rate of each treatment was recorded and calculated. Fresh weight of each treatment was measured 21 days after emergence, and the inhibition rate was calculated.
[0050] Calculation of the pesticide damage coefficient: The germination potential, germination rate, emergence rate and germination and emergence inhibition rate (%) were calculated according to formulas (1) and (2): Germination rate: G=N1x100 / N2…(1) Where: G-germination rate (germination potential, emergence rate), the unit is percentage (%); N1-normal (emergence) number of germination; N2-test number of seeds.
[0051] Germination inhibition rate (%): G I =(G ck -G T )x100 / G ck …(2).
[0052] Where: G I -Germination inhibition rate, expressed as percentage (%); G CK -Germination rate of blank control; G T - Germination rate after treatment with chemical; The growth rate inhibition rate was calculated according to formula (3) and (4): Growth rate: R=L / D…(3) Where: R is growth rate, in millimeters or grams per day (mm, g / d); L is the new height or length, fresh weight or thousand weight of the plant or branch or root system, in millimeters or grams (mm, g); D is time, in days (d).

[0073] The time and number of application of pesticides were October 19, 2023, and the pesticides were applied once in total.
[0074] Survey time and frequency At sowing, a row in each plot under each treatment was manually furrowed between rows and 100 seeds were evenly sown. This served as the treatment for assessing seedling emergence. Fifteen days after wheat sowing (November 3, 2023), all emerged seedlings were counted and the emergence rate was calculated. When wheat root rot was fully established (May 27, 2024), the base of the stem was surveyed for disease, with each plant being graded. Two surveys were conducted in total.
[0075] Survey Methodology Randomly sample 5 points in each plot, and take double rows of 1m at each point to investigate the disease situation at the base of the stem. The investigation is graded based on the plant, and the total number of plants investigated and the number of diseased plants at each level are recorded.
[0076] Grading method: Level 0: no lesions at the base of the stem; Level 1: The lesions surround less than 25% of the stem base; Grade 3: lesions surround 26-50% of the stem base; Grade 5: lesions surround 51-75% of the stem base; Level 7: The lesions surround more than 76% of the stem base, and the plant wilts and is close to death or dead.
[0077] Calculation method of drug efficacy: The disease index and control effect were calculated based on the disease stage. The control results were subjected to arcsine transformation and variance analysis, and the DMRT method was used to compare the significance of the average control effect of each treatment.
