Solution Overview
Problem
Existing aqueous pest control liquids fail to maintain a consistent volatilization of pest control components over a long period, which affects their efficacy in pest control.
Innovation Solution

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If conventional aqueous pest control liquids are used, then safety for fire and environment is improved, but the volatilization of pest control components cannot be maintained consistently over long periods
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the chemical parameters of the formulation by introducing a specific ester compound with controlled vapor pressure and a specific glycol ether. These parameter changes enable the liquid to maintain consistent volatilization over 50 days or more while preserving fire and environmental safety, directly resolving the contradiction between safety and long-term volatilization duration.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent creates a composite aqueous formulation combining pyrethroid compound, specific ester compound, specific glycol ether, and water. This composite material approach allows the synergistic interaction between components to achieve both long-term volatilization consistency and safety requirements, transforming the conventional single-component or simple mixture approach.
2Ease of manufacture
If the pest control liquid formulation is simplified, then ease of manufacture is improved, but the ability to volatilize fixed amount for long period deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent specifies precise parameter ranges for the ester compound (vapor pressure 1×10^-10 to 1×10^-6 Pa at 25°C) and glycol ether (specific chemical structures). These controlled parameter changes enable long-term volatilization consistency while maintaining relatively simple manufacturing processes, balancing formulation complexity with manufacturability.
