Abstract

Film that releases an active substance into the environment in a controlled manner under the action of water comprises a water-soluble matrix material and the active substance.

Description

The The invention relates to a water-soluble Foil for release of active ingredients to the environment. As active ingredients come active ingredients with physiological effects in question, such. B. Phytosanitary, phytosanitary and pest control products (pesticides, insecticides, Bactericides, acaricides, algicides, fungicides, herbicides, molluscicides, Nematocides, rodenticides and viricides), but also plant growth substances, Fertilizer, Perfumes, repellents and attractants.

To the State of the art count water-soluble Tablets containing active ingredients and in contact with liquid water are capable of releasing the active substances. Continue to exist with liquid filled bags, which the active ingredient in liquid or dissolved Form included. When in contact with liquid water that dissolves forming the bag material and leaves the content in the environment free. In addition, it is known, active ingredients in liquid or solid form directly into a supply of water to make them from the resulting dilute solution in to release the environment.

task The present invention is to provide a product provide that empowers is to deliver a drug in a controlled manner to the environment. The drug should be well dosed in the product, the danger The contamination can be avoided and the product easy to handle be. After all if the product is to be biodegradable, d. H. residue-free soluble in water.

Is solved the task by a water-soluble Foil containing a water-soluble Matrix material and at least one active ingredient. The Thickness of the film is between 20 and 1600 microns, preferably between 50 and 500 μm. In a preferred embodiment is the water-soluble However, not only in terms of thickness, but also in terms of film their length and their width defined so that the content of the active ingredient in Such a defined film section is exactly predosed.

To the water-soluble Count matrix materials inorganic and organic substances that swell in water, preferably however completely soluble are. Inorganic substances covered by this definition belong z. For example, silica, Polysilicates, polyphosphoric acid and their derivatives, polyboronic acids, Clay, etc. To the organic substances, which are water-soluble matrix materials eligible, count organic polymers such. As polyvinyl alcohol, wheat protein and their derivatives, carbohydrates, starch (from different vegetable sources), amylose and its derivatives, amylopectin and their derivatives, cellulose and their derivatives, hydrolysed starch, modified Strength, modified starch derivatives, Maltodextrins, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC), polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), chitin, chitosan, polysaccharide gums and their derivatives, Polyethylene glycol, water-soluble Polyacrylates, water-soluble Polyester, hydroxyalkylstarch, Polyvinylpyrrolidone cellulose derivatives, casein, gelatin, solubilized Proteins, polyacrylamides, polyamines, styrene-maleic anhydride resins, Polyethylene amine, xanthan gum.

Suitable active ingredients are those substances which have a physiological effect. These include, in particular, those substances which belong to the active ingredient groups already mentioned above. These are known to the person skilled in the art.

These active substances can be contained as a single substance, but also in combinations of at least two active substances in the water-soluble film. A particularly preferred active ingredient is imidacloprid.

The Release of the active substance or the active ingredient combinations from the water-soluble Film takes place in a controlled manner. The release mechanism is mainly dependent from the water solubility of the active substance, the water solubility of the Matrix substance, the duration of exposure to water, the physical Form of water (liquid, gaseous) and the thickness of the water-soluble Foil. The release period can therefore be characterized essentially by suitable selection of the matrix materials are modified.

Corresponding of the desired Release period, the matrix material can be chosen so that by the action of gaseous Water (humidity) is a slow decay, which accordingly a delayed one Release of the active ingredient causes. Done on the other side a faster release of the active substance when exposed to rain and / or groundwater (i.e., liquid) Water).

Independent of the duration of exposure and the form of the water can release delayed by the active ingredient be used that a particularly poorly water-soluble matrix substance. In this case, the release of the active ingredient essentially takes place diffusion controlled while in the aforementioned cases the release of the active ingredient is erosion-controlled.

The Time release of the active substance can therefore be designed that it happens very fast (within a few seconds); she can also talk about Delay minutes, hours, days, months and years. For this purpose - as I said - the water content the environment and the nature of the film (water solubility the matrix material).

The water-soluble Film may also contain adjuvants, such as dyes, Antioxidants, film formers, gelling agents, surfactants, pressure-sensitive adhesives, adhesive resins, Salts, oxides, pigments. These adjuvants can u. a. mechanical properties affect, so that the water-soluble film at least one may have the following properties: flexible, elastic, adhesive, transparent, colored, non-adhesive.

The water-soluble Foil for the release of active ingredients can be used in private homes and Garden area, but also used in agriculture and forestry become. Under environment are within the meaning of the present description especially the soil, standing and flowing waters, surfaces of Plants and objects to understand. In practical use, the film will either used directly at the place of use in the environment, so that the Active substance by the action of gaseous or liquid water over one predetermined period can be released. Another possibility is the water-soluble To give film in a (limited) water supply, in which the Dissolves film quickly and so allows that the active ingredient in the water supply or by distributing this Water supply is released into the environment.

The The following examples are intended to illustrate the invention, without it in any Way to limit it. There were water-soluble Sheets (wafers) with different concentrations of imidacloprid manufactured. The slides can for fighting used by termites.

It It should be noted that the drying conditions in the case of a continuous Coating and drying process of those in the examples may differ. In the drying channel with several dry segments become temperatures between 70 ° C and 40 ° C preferred, especially the range between 65 ° C and 50 ° C.

Example 1:

Mowiol 8-88 is a polyvinyl alcohol, imidacloprid is an insecticide named 1- (6-chloro-3-pyridylmethyl) -N-nitroimidazolidin-2-ylideneamine.

The components are mixed and coated by means of a coating box to a line width of 400 μm onto the non-siliconized side of a release liner of the brand PA PE2 AB1 (basis weight: 120 g / m ² ). After drying at 80 ° C for 60 min (in a drying oven) to obtain a water-soluble film having a basis weight of 72 g / m ² . The concentration of imidacloprid is 32 g / m ² .

Example 2:

The preparation proceeds as in Example 1. Texapon NSO is a surfactant. Line thickness: 300 μm coating box Basis weight: 50 g / m ² Release liner: PA PE2 AB1, 120 g / m ² not siliconized side Drying conditions: 80 ° C / 60 min

The dried film contains imidacloprid in a concentration of 17.3 g / m ² and is readily soluble in water.

Example 3:

The preparation proceeds as in Example 1. Line thickness: 400 μm coating box Basis weight: 109 g / m ² Release liner: PA PE2 AB1, 120 g / m ² not siliconized side Drying conditions: 80 ° C / 60 min

The dried film contains imidacloprid at a concentration of 67 g / m ² and is readily soluble in water.

Example 4:
