Unique Features :
 
1. A selective, systemic, hormone, weed killer taken up by plant through leaves, roots and more through the vascular system of plants.

2. It has been found effective as pre-emergent weedicide.

3. A rain free period of 6-10 hours from application are adequate for full absorption of the chemical.

4. 2,4-D Sodium Salt is quite effective for aquatic herbs without causing any harm to fishes in general when used in proper dose.

5. Rain, sub-surface water flow, soil capillary etc. always help residual pesticides to find way to water resource but 2,4-D Sodium Salt is much safer in this respect.

6. On unit acreage, use 2,4-D Sodium Salt would be much cheaper than that of any other herbicides.

7. 2,4-D Sodium Salt is used as raw material for Esters and Amine.

8. It is also an established plant growth regulator besides being a powerful (but safe) systemic herbicidal agent.

Unique Features :
 

1. Aeromine, 2,4-Dimethyl Amine Salt is a selective systematic post emergent herbicide. It is in liquid state and does not require long time for stirring. Aeromin is fully soluble in all proportions and therefore is well adopted to low gallonage spray equipment, even at high rates of application.

2. Aeromine is almost Non-Polar 2,4-D formulation which results in rapid penetration. Any 2,4-D when applied to the foliage, penetrates the cuticle by diffusion. Since cuticle surface is lipoidal (non-polar) in nature and mineral salts of phenoxy acid are polar, they do not match each other leading to slow penetration. Aeromine being non-polarpenetrates the cuticle without any assistance from non-herbicidal compounds. Hence there are rare chances of photodecomposition in the plant surface.

3. Aeromine is a safe herbicide in connection with accumulation in soil and phytotoxicity. Being highly soluble in water it leaches more faster than the mineral salts of 2,4-D and is then absorbed by the soil organic matter or clay colloids. The absorbed Aeromine is then inactivated by Arthobacterium and Pseudomonas present in the soil. The maximum persistency in soil is one month.

4. Aeromine being fully soluble in water is compatible with Glyphostate, Dalapon, Simazine, Paraquat, Diuron for total control of a mixed weed population.
