Abstract:
A microcapsule formulation comprisingA) a particulate disperse phase of a) a reaction product of one or more compounds selected from diamines, polyamines, dialcohols, polyalcohols and aminoalcohols with an isocyanate mixture comprising one or more isocyanates selected from the compounds of the formulae and â€ƒwherein said isocyanate mixture prior to its reaction is obtained during the dimerization or trimerization of hexamethylene-1,6-diisocyanate of the formulaOCHâ€”(CH2)6â€”NCOâ€ƒâ€ƒ(I) or during the reaction of hexamethylene-1,6-diisocyanate of the formula (I) with water or carbon dioxide or with water and carbon dioxide;b) one or more fungicidally active compounds selected from the group consisting of 8-(1,1-dimethylethyl)-N-ethyl-N-propyl-1,4-dioxaspiro[4,5]decane-2-methanamine (spiroxamine), fenpropidin, aldimorph, dodemorph, fenpropimorph triadimefon, triadimenol, bitertanol, dichlobutrazole, tebuconazole, propiconazole, difenoconazole, cyproconazole, flutriafol, hexaconazole, myclobutanil, penconazole, etaconazole, bromuconazole, epoxiconazole, fenbuconazole, tetraconazole, diniconazole, flusilazole, prochloraz, metconazole, ipconazole, fluquinconazole, triticonazole, triflumizole, imibenconazole, imazalil and 2-[2-(1-chloro-cyclo propyl)-3-(2-chlorophenyl)-2-hydroxypropyl]-2,4-dihydro-[1,2,4]-triazole-3-thione, and/or one or more insecticidally active compounds selected from the group of the phosphoric esters, the pyrethroids or the carbamates, and/or one or more herbicidally active compounds selected from the group of the acetanilides, and c) optionally, one or more additives, the particles of the disperse phase having a mean particle size of between 1 and 20 &mgr;m, and B) a liquid aqueous phase, wherein said particulate phase is dispersed in said liquid aqueous phase to provide said microcapsule formulation.
