Abstract:
An aqueous or water soluble composition comprising(a) a glyphosate herbicide in a herbicidally effective amount;(b) an amine surfactant component having the chemical structure ##STR8## wherein x is a number from about 7 to about 19, n.sub.1 and n.sub.2 are numbers independently selected from 1 to about 30, the average sum of n.sub.1 and n.sub.2 is 2 or greater, and R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are C.sub.2 -C.sub.4 alkylene radicals; said amine surfactant component being in an amount sufficient to potentiate the glyphosate herbicidal activity; and(c) an acidic compound having the chemical structureR.sub.3 --O--(R.sub.4 O)m--X.sub.1wherein R.sub.3 is C.sub.8 -C.sub.20 alkyl or C.sub.8 -C.sub.20 alkylphenyl, R.sub.4 is C.sub.2 -C.sub.4 alkylene, m is a number from 0 to about 60, and X.sub.1 is selected from the group consisting of carboxylate, sulfate and phosphate; said acidic compound being present in an amount sufficient to reduce the eye irritancy of the composition caused by component (b).
