Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing insecticidal and acaricidal compounds have unsatisfactory activity levels, and there is a need for more effective combinations to control animal pests.
Innovation Solution
The combination of specific anthranilamides with other insecticidally active compounds, such as benzoylureas, macrolides, and diacylhydrazines, which exhibit synergistic effects, enhancing their individual insecticidal and acaricidal activities.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If single insecticidal compounds are used, then the formulation is simple, but the insecticidal activity is unsatisfactory
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple insecticidal compounds (anthranilamides with other classes such as benzoylureas, pyrethroids, organophosphates, carbamates, or insect growth regulators) into a single formulation to achieve synergistic effects. This merging of different chemical classes results in enhanced insecticidal activity compared to single compounds, while maintaining practical formulation simplicity through unified application methods.
2Reliability
If multiple insecticidal compounds are combined, then the insecticidal activity increases, but the formulation complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent optimizes the concentration ratios and mixing proportions of multiple insecticidal compounds to achieve synergistic effects. By carefully adjusting parameters such as the proportion of anthranilamide to other insecticidal classes, the formulation achieves enhanced activity without requiring complex application procedures. The synergistic interaction allows for reduced individual compound concentrations while maintaining effective pest control.
