Glyphosate formulations containing amidoalkylamine surfactants
By combining amide-based alkylamine surfactants with co-surfactants, the problem of insufficient compatibility between glyphosate salts and surfactants was solved, thereby improving the stability and herbicidal effect of high-load glyphosate formulations.

AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies make it difficult to prepare high-concentration glyphosate formulations because glyphosate salts have limited compatibility with surfactants, resulting in insufficient stability and bioavailability at high loading levels.
A combination of amide-alkylamine surfactants and co-surfactants was used to improve the compatibility between glyphosate salts and surfactants, and a high-loading glyphosate concentrate was prepared. The concentrate contained a combination of amide-alkylamine surfactants and various co-surfactants such as alkoxylated tertiary amine oxides, amide-amine alkoxylates, and betaine.
This study improved the stability and bioavailability of high-concentration glyphosate formulations, enhanced the compatibility of glyphosate with herbicides, reduced eye irritation and skin toxicity of the formulations, provided long-term storage stability, and improved weed control efficacy.
