Synergistic Agrochemical Composition for Plant Disease Control
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current plant disease control agents, such as α-substituted phenylacetic acid compounds and azole compounds, have limitations in effectiveness for controlling a wide range of plant diseases, necessitating the development of more potent formulations.
Innovation Solution
A composition combining a specific compound represented by formula (1) with selected azole compounds, such as bromuconazole, difenoconazole, and tetraconazole, in specific weight ratios, for enhanced plant disease control, including seed treatment and application to plants or growth loci.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If conventional α-substituted phenylacetic acid compounds or azole compounds are used alone, then the formulation is simple, but the control effect for plant diseases is insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines a compound of formula (1) with a specific azole compound to create a synergistic formulation. This merging of two different active ingredients resolves the contradiction by achieving enhanced control effect (improved reliability) while maintaining a relatively simple two-component formulation structure.
Solution Approach 2:
The invention creates a composite pesticide formulation consisting of a compound of formula (1) and an azole compound. This composite material approach allows the formulation to achieve superior disease control performance (improved reliability) while maintaining a defined and manageable composition structure.
2Reliability
If a combination of compounds is used to enhance control effect, then the control effect is improved, but the formulation complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges exactly two active ingredients (compound of formula (1) and azole compound) in specific combinations. This controlled merging achieves improved control effect while limiting formulation complexity to a manageable two-component system, rather than using complex multi-ingredient formulations.
