Invention Patent: "CONCENTRATED WATER PESTICIDED COMPOSITIONS THAT HAVE PERFECTED DERMAL AND EYE SECURITY". This invention relates to a concentrated aqueous pesticidal composition comprising (a) a water-soluble pesticide in an amount of about 50 to about 500 g / l; (b) an eteramine surfactant; and (c) an anionic surfactant which has the chemical formula (III) R ^ 7 ^ - (OR ^ 8 ^) ~ n ~ -OX where R ^ 7 ^ is a linear or branched aliphatic C ~ 4-22 ~ hydrocarbyl group , saturated or unsaturated, or a (C ~ 8-12 ~ alkyl) phenyl group, R ^ 8 ^ groups are independently C ~ 2-4 ~ alkylidene groups, n is 0 to about 60 and X is an anionic radical selected from carboxylate, carboxyl ether, sulfate and phosphate; the weight ratio of the anionic surfactant to the eteramine surfactant from about 1: 10 to about 1: 1. Compositions of the invention show reduced damage to the skin and / or eyes unlike similar compositions in which only the anionic surfactant is missing. |
