Chlorfluazuron Insecticide

What is Chlorfluazuron?

Chlorfluazuron is a benzoylurea insecticide, an organochlorine insecticide, an organofluorine insecticide and a dichlorobenzene.Cas 71422-67-8Chlorfluazuron is a benzoylurea fluorinated nitrogen heterocyclic pesticide with unique mechanism of action, high efficiency, low toxicity and being environmentally friendly. It can be used in vegetables, cotton, fruit trees and pine trees. It is mainly used for controlling Pieris rapae, Plutella xylostella, Helicoverpa armigera, apple peach moth, and pine caterpillars. Its prevention and cure effect is remarkable, especially for the control of vegetable pests; it is expected that it is one of the main varieties that replace the current highly toxic pesticide, providing a new pesticide variety for the production of green food.

Chlorfluazuron Mode of Action

Chlorfluazuron, which acts as an anti-molting agent, inhibits biosynthesis of chitin in the insect cuticle, which causes loss of cuticle elasticity and rmness, and results in abortive molting.

Chlorfluazuron Characterisitics

Chlorfluazuron It is of gastric poisoning, contact kill (inhibition of chitin synthesis) effect with high efficacy against pests, but the efficacy is slow. The mechanism of action is through inhibition of chitin synthesis, hindering insect normal molting, egg hatching, larvae molting and pupal developmental deformity and block of adult feather.

Chitin synthesis inhibitor Interrupts insect molting and growth Active against larval stages of a broad spectrum of Lepidopteran insects Long residual activity Active against certain Coleoptera, Hemiptera,Thysanoptera and Blattodea Stomach toxin - active through ingestion Effective at low rates (10-100 g a.i./ha) Easy to use (liquid formulation)Safe to benecial insects.

What is Chlorfluazuron used for?

Chlorfluazuron is an insect growth regulator that inhibits chitin synthesis and provides good control of various pest insects, especially Lepidoptera, at a low dose rate. Chlorfluazuron has very little negative impact on natural enemies and pollinating insects, and can be used in integrated pest management programs.

Chlorfluazuron Application

Chlorfluazuron Benzoyl urea insect growth regulator. Major effect is through stomach poisoning, coupled with strong contact action. Its permeability is poor with no endosuction effect.

Insecticidal mechanism is through inhibiting the formation of chitin, hindering the normal molting, causing egg hatching, larvae molting, kidney malformations, adult emergence and obstruction of eggs, so as to achieve the effect of insecticide. It has high activity and slow acting speed, and has a longer half-life in larvae. The agent is a broad-spectrum insecticide and is effective against various Lepidoptera pests and Diptera, Orthoptera and Hymenoptera. It is quite effective on insects on the vegetables, can also be used to control a variety of pests on cabbage, cotton, tea trees and fruit trees.

Chlorfluazuron Control of Lepidoptera such as Helicoverpa, Spodoptera and Pseudoplusia on soybean; and Plutella, Spodoptera and thrips on vegetables;Adoxophyes, Ascotis on tea and fruit trees. Also used on potatoes,ornamentals and turf. Application rate : 10-100 g a.i./ha

Chlorfluazuron is one of the leasing compoundsin the benzoylphenylurea IGR insecticides. for mainly controlling Lepidoptera on cotton, bean, vegetables and fruit trees, etc.Chlorfluazuron is an insect growth regulator inhibiting chitin synthesis and can give a good control of various pest insects, especially Lepidoptera, at low dose rate.Chlorfluazuron has very little negative impact on natural enemies and pollinator insects,m and can be used in integrated pest management programs.

Chlorfluazuron Controlling objects

Chlorfluazuron It is of high activity against Lepidoptera, Coleoptera, Orthoptera, Hymenoptera and Diptera with no effects on aphids, leafhoppers and planthoppers.

Control Pieris rapae and diamondback moth; during 1 to 3 instar larvae stage, apply 1 000 ~ 4 000 times 5% EC times for spray. Make appropriate adjustment in the above concentration range according to the severity of the pest and the size of insect instar.

Control Eucalyptus ladybugs, potato ladybugs, Spodoptera litura and cutworm; during the larval hatch stage, use 2000~3000 times 5% EC for spray.

Prevention and control of pod borer, use 1 000 ~ 2 000 times liquid to administrate once in both the crop flowering stage and pest egg stage.

Chlorfluazuron use

Chlorfluazuron Its application period is generally 3 days earlier than normal organophosphate, pyrethrins insecticide; in the best case, spray during the young larvae stage; for boring pests, it should be applied during the peak stage of egging.

No suction conduction effect; the application must be uniform and thoughtful.

Avoid using it in the mulberry fields, fish ponds and other places.

For cotton and cabbage area, do not use more than 3 times for crops per season; for citrus, do not use more than 2 times. The safe interval is 21 days for cotton and citrus and 7 days for cabbage.

Chlorfluazuron is benzoyl(pyridiyloxyphenyl)urea based pesticide that acts as a chitin synthesis inhibitor. Chlorfluazuron is commonly used in agriculture as an insect growth regulator for controlling the major insect pests in crops.

Chlorfluazuron is used for the control of Heliothis, Spodoptera, Bemisia tabaci and other chewing insects on cotton, and Plutella and Thrips on vegetables. It is also used on fruit, potatoes, ornamentals and tea.
