The invention relates to the technical field of
agricultural biotechnology and
pesticide preparations, and discloses a preparation method and application of a 2, 4-di-tert-butylphenol nanoemulsion, the method comprises the following steps: dissolving 2, 4-di-tert-butylphenol in
ethyl acetate to form an
oil phase mixture; under magnetic stirring, the obtained
oil phase mixture and Tween 80 are mixed and stirred to be fully mixed, internal gas is removed through
ultrasound, an
oil phase-emulsifier
system is obtained, then the oil phase-emulsifier
system is slowly added into deionized water with the volume 8 times that of the oil phase-emulsifier
system under magnetic stirring at 45 DEG C, ultrasonic treatment is conducted for 40 min, mutual
dissolution of the water phase and the oil phase is promoted, and the pre-
emulsion is obtained. The obtained pre-
emulsion is emulsified by a high-pressure
homogenizer at 20000 psi, and is circulated for 8 times to obtain the nano-
emulsion. The nano-emulsion prepared by the invention has a nano-scale particle size, the system presents good dynamic stability, layering,
precipitation or
Ostwald ripening are not easy to occur, and the storage stability is relatively high.
