Momentive multifunctional Spreaders and Penetrants

ENABLING MAXIMIZED AGRICULTURAL COVERAGE AND SPRAY EFFICIENCY FOR MORE THAN 35 YEARS

Our history and expertise in agriculture has led us to the development of industry-leading technologies. Silwet* super spreaders and super penetrants can enable spray treatments to spread up to 10 times more than conventional adjuvants to help growers improve yield and spray efficiency. And they work fast.
When needed, Silwet adjuvants can allow treatments to absorb in 2 minutes or less†—providing advanced uptake and rain fastness, so growers can apply treatments at the right time. And, they can help increase spray treatment performance—even against the hardest to wet plants and the toughest weeds. Silwet super spreaders and super penetrants can give growers the confidence that their spray treatment will deliver maximum performance.

Momentive Antifoams and Defoamers

Eliminate Foam Fast and PROLONG ITS RETURN

Traditionally, growers have relied on industrial defoamers that often require high dose rates and repeated applications to control foam. Momentive’s high-performance SAG antifoams can knock down foam fast and keep it controlled for an extended period, often with a single dose. One tank treatment with a SAG antifoam can deliver long-lasting foam suppression—helping formulators improve productivity while allowing growers more time to spray with less hassle from foam.
