PROPERTIES

ETOFENPROX is a synthetic pyrethroid with excellent insecticidal properties, exhibiting a killing effect and residual effects with broad spectrum of actions.

ETOFENPROX is advised for treatment resistance because it is a non-ester pyrethroid insecticide with an ether linkage instead of an ester linkage in traditional pyrethroid insecticides.

It is used in both household and public health sectors.

Appearance

White crystalline solid or yellowish
liquid or paste.

Solubility


Soluble in all common organic solvents. Negligible solubility in
water.

Specifications


Purity 97.0% w/w min.

APPLICATIONS

ETOFENPROX is an excellent pyrethroid with killing and residual properties suitable for applications against flying and crawling insects.

ETOFENPROX is used in wide range of products for house hold and professional application such as liquid concentrates (emulsifiable concentrates, macro and micro-emulsions) and corresponding RTUs.
When synergized with Piperonyl Butoxide, the efficacy of ETOFENPROX is increased, both in terms of knockdown and killing effect.

COMPATIBILITY, STABILITY,
STORAGE AND HANDLING

Compatible with most of the actives, solvents and coformulants normally used in the manufacturing of insecticidal products.
Avoid exposure to heat and ignition source.
When kept in the original sealed drums and properly stored, ETOFENPROX has a shelf life of at least 3 years from the manufacturing date

PACKAGING
