Description

農業用薬剤およびその製造方法Agricultural chemicals and methods for producing the same
 本発明は、有効成分として含まれる化合物の効果を増強させるアジュバントを含む農業用薬剤に関する。 The present invention relates to an agricultural drug containing an adjuvant that enhances the effect of a compound contained as an active ingredient.
 農薬の茎葉散布は、古くから広範に行われている農薬の散布方法の1つである。茎葉散布は、保護対象の植物に直接薬剤を散布するため、対象の生物に対して効果的に薬剤を到達させることができる。 The spraying of pesticides is one of the methods of spraying pesticides widely used since ancient times. In the foliage spraying, since the drug is sprayed directly on the plant to be protected, the drug can effectively reach the target organism.
 一方で、茎葉散布により散布された薬剤は、植物体表面付近に存在することになるため、風雨および光などの外界の影響を受けやすいというリスクがある。また、茎葉散布用の薬剤であっても、農薬の効果を発揮させるためには、防除対象生物内部への薬剤の浸透しやすさおよび保護対象植物体内での薬剤の移動しやすさが重要である。 On the other hand, since the medicine sprayed by foliage spray exists near the surface of the plant body, there is a risk that it is easily affected by the outside world such as wind and rain and light. In addition, even for chemicals for foliage application, in order to exert the effect of agricultural chemicals, it is important that the chemical penetrates into the organism to be controlled and that the chemical moves within the protected plant. is there.
 したがって、茎葉散布を効果的に行うためには、対象となる生物に対して効果を有する有効成分を適切に選択すると共に、選択した有効成分の効果が最大限に発揮されるように製剤を調製する必要がある。新規の有効成分の開発が困難となりつつある中、このような製剤は有効成分の適用場面を広げ、効果を確実なものとしている。また、このような製剤の使用により、農薬の散布量を低減して環境に対する負荷を軽減することもできる。 Therefore, in order to effectively spread foliage, select the active ingredients that are effective against the target organism and prepare the formulation so that the effects of the selected active ingredients are maximized. There is a need to. While the development of new active ingredients is becoming difficult, such formulations broaden the application of active ingredients and ensure their effectiveness. In addition, by using such a preparation, it is possible to reduce the burden on the environment by reducing the spraying amount of the agricultural chemical.
 従来、茎葉散布剤は、原体(活性成分)を有機溶剤に溶解し、界面活性剤を加えて調製する乳剤の形態で利用されることが多い。しかし、近年、製造現場における安全性の確保、貯蔵時の防火安全性の確保、農業従事者の安全確保、環境に対する負荷の軽減および作物に対する薬害の軽減などの観点から、有機溶剤を用いる乳剤の代わりに、水を分散媒とした懸濁剤(SC、フロアブル)および乳濁剤(EW)、あるいは鉱物質微粉を媒体とした水和剤もしくは顆粒水和剤の形態で用いられることが多くなっている。 Conventionally, foliage sprays are often used in the form of emulsions prepared by dissolving the active ingredient (active ingredient) in an organic solvent and adding a surfactant. However, in recent years, emulsions using organic solvents have been developed from the viewpoints of ensuring safety at manufacturing sites, ensuring fire safety during storage, ensuring the safety of agricultural workers, reducing the burden on the environment, and reducing chemical damage to crops. Instead, it is often used in the form of a suspension (SC, flowable) and emulsion (EW) using water as a dispersion medium, or a wettable powder or granular wettable powder using mineral fine powder as a medium. ing.
 水または鉱物質微粉を媒体とした製剤である懸濁剤、乳濁剤、水和剤および水和顆粒は、有機溶媒を媒体とする乳剤と比べて対象生物に対する活性が弱まることがあるため、アジュバントを用いて活性を増強することが一般的である。例えば、特許文献1には、牛脂アミン(tallow amine)を添加する技術が開示されており、特許文献2にはフタル酸エステルをアジュバントとして用いる技術が開示されている。なお、特許文献2には、乳化分散させたときのフタル酸エステルの平均乳化粒子径を15.0μm以下とすることも開示されている。また、非特許文献1には、植物油由来の乳濁物を散布液に添加する方法が開示されている。 Suspensions, emulsions, wettable powders, and hydrated granules, which are preparations using water or mineral fine powder as a medium, may be less active against target organisms than emulsions containing organic solvents. It is common to enhance activity with an adjuvant. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a technique of adding tallowamine, and Patent Document 2 discloses a technique of using a phthalate ester as an adjuvant. Patent Document 2 also discloses that the average emulsified particle diameter of the phthalate ester when emulsified and dispersed is 15.0 μm or less. Non-Patent Document 1 discloses a method of adding a vegetable oil-derived emulsion to a spray liquid.
米国特許出願公開第2003/0050194号明細書(米国特許第6746988号特許明細書)US Patent Application Publication No. 2003/0050194 (US Pat. No. 6,746,988) 特開2010-150143号公報(2010年7月8日公開)JP 2010-150143 A (released July 8, 2010)
 しかし、特許文献1および2に開示されているように牛脂アミンまたはフタル酸エステルなどをアジュバントとして添加したとしても、懸濁剤または乳濁剤の形態の製剤に含まれる有効成分の活性を十分に増強することが困難であるという問題を有している。 However, even if beef tallow amine or phthalate is added as an adjuvant as disclosed in Patent Documents 1 and 2, the activity of the active ingredient contained in the preparation in the form of a suspension or emulsion is sufficiently increased. There is a problem that it is difficult to enhance.

 ここで、本明細書およびその添付書面(以下、これらを合わせて本明細書と呼ぶ)において用いられている「農業用薬剤」および「農業用薬剤組成物」の定義について説明する。本明細書における「農業用薬剤」とは、農園芸用途に用いられる薬剤であり、散布液を調製する前の製剤を意味するものである。また、本明細書における「農業用薬剤組成物」とは、農業用薬剤に含有されている組成物であり、少なくとも有効成分を含む組成物である。 Here, the definitions of “agricultural drug” and “agricultural drug composition” used in the present specification and its attached document (hereinafter collectively referred to as the present specification) will be described.

 なお、本発明に係る農業用薬剤は、有効成分、脂肪酸エステル乳化物およびアミンが予め混合されているものに限定されるものではない。本明細書では、すなわち、農業用薬剤組成物と脂肪酸エステル乳化物およびアミンを含む添加剤(アジュバント)とを備えたキットも本発明に係る農業用薬剤に含むものとする。なお、脂肪酸エステルおよびアミンは別体となっていてもよい。 In addition, the agricultural chemical | medical agent which concerns on this invention is not limited to the thing with which an active ingredient, a fatty-acid-ester emulsion, and an amine are mixed previously. In the present specification, that is, the agricultural chemical according to the present invention also includes a kit including an agricultural chemical composition, a fatty acid ester emulsion, and an additive containing an amine (adjuvant). The fatty acid ester and the amine may be separated.
 本実施形態では、まず製剤組み込み型の農業用薬剤について説明した後にタンクミックス型の農業用薬剤について説明する。 In this embodiment, first, the formulation-integrated agricultural chemical will be described, and then the tank mix-type agricultural chemical will be described.
 (製剤組み込み型農業用薬剤)
 製剤組み込み型農業用薬剤の一実施形態について以下に説明する。製剤組み込み型農業用薬剤における農業用薬剤組成物は、上述したように、有効成分、アミン及び脂肪酸エステル乳化物を含む(パターン1)。なお、本発明に係る農業用薬剤に含まれているアミンおよび脂肪酸エステルはアジュバントと称される成分である。製剤組み込み型農業用薬剤であれば、使用者が散布時にアジュバント成分を混合する手間を省くことができる。
(Formulation embedded agricultural chemicals)
One embodiment of the pharmaceutical embedded agricultural chemical is described below. As described above, the agricultural pharmaceutical composition in the pharmaceutical embedded agricultural chemical contains an active ingredient, an amine and a fatty acid ester emulsion (Pattern 1). In addition, the amine and fatty acid ester which are contained in the agricultural chemical | medical agent which concerns on this invention are components called an adjuvant. If it is a pharmaceutical embedded agricultural chemical, it is possible to save the user from mixing the adjuvant component when spraying.
 また、製剤組み込み型農業用薬剤は、農業用薬剤組成物の他に農園芸用薬剤の製剤において一般的に用いられる賦形剤などを含んでいてもよい。製剤組み込み型農業用薬剤に含まれる各種成分について、以下に説明する。 Further, the preparation-incorporated agricultural chemical may contain excipients generally used in the preparation of agricultural and horticultural chemicals in addition to the agricultural pharmaceutical composition. Various components contained in the pharmaceutical embedded agricultural chemical will be described below.
 (脂肪酸エステル)
 製剤組み込み型農業用薬剤において用いることができる脂肪酸エステルは、特に限定されるものではない。脂肪酸エステルとしては、例えば、動植物由来の油脂、油脂の加水分解物のエステル化物および石油由来の脂肪酸エステルなどを用いることができる。
(Fatty acid ester)
The fatty acid ester that can be used in the pharmaceutical preparation-type agricultural chemical is not particularly limited. Examples of fatty acid esters that can be used include oils and fats derived from animals and plants, esterified products of hydrolyzed oils and fats, and fatty acid esters derived from petroleum.
 農業用薬剤における脂肪酸エステルの含有量は、0.1~50重量%の範囲であることが好ましく、0.5~40重量%の範囲であることがより好ましい。なお、実際に散布される際の散布液中における脂肪酸エステルの含有量は、散布液全量に対して重量にして1~5000ppmの範囲であることが好ましく、10~2000ppmの範囲であることがより好ましい。 The content of the fatty acid ester in the agricultural chemical is preferably in the range of 0.1 to 50% by weight, more preferably in the range of 0.5 to 40% by weight. Note that the content of the fatty acid ester in the spray liquid when actually sprayed is preferably in the range of 1 to 5000 ppm by weight with respect to the total amount of the spray liquid, and more preferably in the range of 10 to 2000 ppm. preferable.
 農業用薬剤中で、脂肪酸エステルは乳化した状態で含有されている。すなわち、農業用薬剤中で脂肪酸エステルは液滴として存在している。 In agricultural chemicals, fatty acid esters are contained in an emulsified state. That is, fatty acid esters exist as droplets in agricultural chemicals.
 上述した脂肪酸エステルを乳化するためには、用いる脂肪酸エステルの性質に応じて適当な界面活性剤を用いればよい。用いることができる界面活性剤としては、例えば、非イオン界面活性剤および陰イオン界面活性剤などを挙げることができる。もちろん、これらの界面活性剤を混合したものを用いてもよい。非イオン界面活性剤および陰イオン界面活性剤としては公知のものを用いればよい。また、非イオン界面活性剤および陰イオン界面活性剤は、1種類のみを用いてもよいし、複数種類を用いてもよい。 In order to emulsify the above-described fatty acid ester, an appropriate surfactant may be used depending on the properties of the fatty acid ester used. Examples of the surfactant that can be used include nonionic surfactants and anionic surfactants. Of course, a mixture of these surfactants may be used. Known nonionic surfactants and anionic surfactants may be used. Moreover, only one type of nonionic surfactant and anionic surfactant may be used, or a plurality of types may be used.
 次に、農業用薬剤中における脂肪酸エステル乳化物の液滴径について説明する。農業用薬剤中の脂肪酸エステルの液滴径は、重量中位径で5~30μmの範囲であることが好ましく、5~25μmの範囲であることがより好ましく、10~20μmの範囲であることがさらに好ましい。ここで、本明細書における「重量中位径」とは、多数の粒子からなる粒子群の重量による累積分布を求めたとき、その50%(中央値)に対応する粒子径の値を指す。 Next, the droplet diameter of the fatty acid ester emulsion in the agricultural chemical will be described. The droplet diameter of the fatty acid ester in the agricultural chemical is preferably in the range of 5 to 30 μm in weight median diameter, more preferably in the range of 5 to 25 μm, and in the range of 10 to 20 μm. Further preferred. Here, the “weight median diameter” in this specification refers to a value of the particle diameter corresponding to 50% (median value) when the cumulative distribution by the weight of the particle group composed of a large number of particles is obtained.
 液滴径が5~30μmの範囲である場合には、有効成分の効果を増強する働きを十分に発揮することができる。なお、30μm以上の液滴を水中に安定に存在させることは一般的には困難である。 When the droplet diameter is in the range of 5 to 30 μm, the function of enhancing the effect of the active ingredient can be sufficiently exerted. In general, it is difficult to cause liquid droplets of 30 μm or more to stably exist in water.
 例えば、特許文献1では、農薬製剤中に脂肪酸エステル乳化物を含有させる際に液滴径を所定の値(特許文献1では15μm)よりも小さくしている。しかし、本発明に係る農業用薬剤では、液滴径が5~25μmの範囲である場合には、液滴径がそれ以下である場合よりも有効成分の効果をより増強し、液滴径が10~20μmの範囲である場合には、有効成分の効果をさらに増強する。すなわち、従来とは異なり、農業用薬剤中の脂肪酸エステルの液滴径を適当な値に調整することにより、より一層有効成分の効果を増強することができる。これは、本発明者らにより見出された新たな知見である。 For example, in Patent Document 1, when the fatty acid ester emulsion is contained in the agricultural chemical preparation, the droplet diameter is made smaller than a predetermined value (15 μm in Patent Document 1). However, in the agricultural chemical according to the present invention, when the droplet size is in the range of 5 to 25 μm, the effect of the active ingredient is further enhanced than when the droplet size is smaller than that, and the droplet size is reduced. When it is in the range of 10 to 20 μm, the effect of the active ingredient is further enhanced. That is, unlike the conventional case, the effect of the active ingredient can be further enhanced by adjusting the droplet diameter of the fatty acid ester in the agricultural chemical to an appropriate value. This is a new finding found by the present inventors.
 なお、脂肪酸エステル乳化物の液滴径は、界面活性剤の添加量に依存する。界面活性剤の添加量を増やせば液滴径は小さくなり、添加量を減らせば液滴径は大きくなる。液滴の粒子径は、従来公知の方法で測定することができる。例えば、レーザー光回折散乱法または電気的検知帯法を用いた方法により測定することができる。 The droplet size of the fatty acid ester emulsion depends on the amount of surfactant added. Increasing the addition amount of the surfactant decreases the droplet diameter, and decreasing the addition amount increases the droplet diameter. The particle diameter of the droplet can be measured by a conventionally known method. For example, it can be measured by a method using a laser light diffraction scattering method or an electrical detection band method.
 (アミン)
 製剤組み込み型農業用薬剤において用いることができるアミンは、特に限定されるものではない。アミンとしては、1級アミン、2級アミンおよび3級アミンのいずれも使用することができる。具体的には、アミンとして、ココナッツアミンおよび牛脂アミンなどのアルキルアミン、モルホリンおよびピペラジンなどの環状アミン、ならびに、アルコールアミンを用いることができる。また、脂肪酸アミン(アルキルアミン)のアルキレンオキサイド付加物などのアミン誘導体を用いることもできる。
(Amine)
The amine that can be used in the pharmaceutical preparation-type agricultural chemical is not particularly limited. As the amine, any of primary amine, secondary amine, and tertiary amine can be used. Specifically, alkyl amines such as coconut amine and beef tallow amine, cyclic amines such as morpholine and piperazine, and alcohol amines can be used as amines. In addition, amine derivatives such as alkylene oxide adducts of fatty acid amines (alkylamines) can also be used.
 アミンとしては、これらの中でも取り扱いが容易であり、経済的であり、製造時または使用時に人体に影響が小さい、アルコールアミンまたはアルキルアミン-アルキレンオキサイド付加物を用いることが好ましい。アルコールアミンの例としては、N-エタノールジアミンを挙げることができる。また、アルキルアミンのアルキレンオキサイド付加物としては、例えば、牛脂アミンのエチレンオキサイド(15モル)付加物を例示することができる。なお、アルキレンオキサイドは、エチレンオキサイド以外にもメチレンオキサイドまたはプロピレンオキサイドであってもよい。もちろんアミンは、上述したものに限定されるものではない。なお、本明細書では、水溶性が高く、蒸気圧が低く、かつ臭気の少ないものを「取り扱いが容易である」ものとしている。 Among these amines, it is preferable to use an alcohol amine or an alkylamine-alkylene oxide adduct that is easy to handle, economical, and has little influence on the human body during production or use. Examples of alcohol amines include N-ethanol diamine. Moreover, as an alkylene oxide adduct of alkylamine, for example, an ethylene oxide (15 mol) adduct of beef tallow amine can be exemplified. The alkylene oxide may be methylene oxide or propylene oxide in addition to ethylene oxide. Of course, the amine is not limited to those described above. In the present specification, a material that has high water solubility, low vapor pressure, and low odor is considered “easy to handle”.
 アミンは、農業用薬剤中に0.1~20重量%の範囲で含まれていることが好ましく、0.2~5重量%の範囲で含まれていることがより好ましい。なお、実際に散布される際の散布液中におけるアミンの含有量は、散布液全量に対して重量にして1~1000ppmの範囲であることが好ましく、5~200ppmの範囲であることがより好ましい。 The amine is preferably contained in the agricultural chemical in the range of 0.1 to 20% by weight, and more preferably in the range of 0.2 to 5% by weight.

 (農業用薬剤の剤形)
 農業用薬剤の剤形は、散布される際に液状となるものであれば特に限定されるものではなく、いわゆる濃厚剤と称される剤形であればよい。すなわち、農業用薬剤は、固体であってもよいし、液体であってもよい。このような農業用薬剤の剤形としては、例えば、水溶剤、水和剤、顆粒水和剤、懸濁剤、乳剤、EW剤、サスポエマルジョン剤、マイクロエマルジョン、液剤、微量散布用剤およびマイクロカプセル剤、などを挙げることができる。
(Agricultural drug dosage form)

Examples of dosage forms of such agricultural chemicals include, for example, aqueous solvents, wettable powders, granular wettable powders, suspensions, emulsions, EW agents, suspoemulsions, microemulsions, liquids, microdispersing agents and And microcapsules.
 (農業用薬剤の用途)
 農業用薬剤の用途は、液状で利用可能な用途であれば特に限定されるものではない。すなわち、用途は含まれる有効成分の特性により適宜設定される。例えば、有効成分として上述したアゾール系化合物を用いる場合には、茎葉散布で優れた効果を発揮する。
(Use of agricultural chemicals)
The application of the agricultural chemical is not particularly limited as long as it is a liquid-useable application. That is, the use is appropriately set depending on the characteristics of the active ingredient included. For example, when the azole compound described above is used as an active ingredient, an excellent effect is exhibited by foliage spraying.
 (製剤組み込み型農業用薬剤の製造方法)
 続いて、製剤組み込み型農業用薬剤の製造方法の一実施形態について以下に説明する。製剤組み込み型農業用薬剤は、対象となる生物に対する有効成分およびアミンを混合するアミン混合工程と、アミン混合工程において得られた混合物に脂肪酸エステル乳化物を混合する脂肪酸エステル混合工程と、を含む。
(Manufacturing method for pharmaceuticals with embedded formulation)
Subsequently, an embodiment of a method for producing a pharmaceutical preparation-type agricultural chemical will be described below. The pharmaceutical embedded agricultural chemical includes an amine mixing step in which an active ingredient and an amine for a target organism are mixed, and a fatty acid ester mixing step in which a fatty acid ester emulsion is mixed in the mixture obtained in the amine mixing step.
 各工程における混合条件は、用いられる有効成分、アミンおよび脂肪酸エステル乳化物に応じて適宜設定すればよい。 The mixing conditions in each step may be appropriately set according to the active ingredient used, the amine and the fatty acid ester emulsion.
 また、アミン混合工程および脂肪酸エステル混合工程の順序は逆であってもよい。すなわち、製剤組み込み型農業用薬剤は、対象となる生物に対する有効成分および脂肪酸エステル乳化物を混合した後に、アミンを混合することによっても製造することができる。 Further, the order of the amine mixing step and the fatty acid ester mixing step may be reversed. That is, the pharmaceutical preparation-type agricultural chemical can also be produced by mixing the active ingredient and fatty acid ester emulsion for the target organism and then mixing the amine.
 なお、製剤組み込み型農業用薬剤を使用する場合、使用者(農業従事者)は製剤組み込み型農業用薬剤を水などに溶解させるか、水などに分散させることで希釈する。そして、使用者は、希釈した液体(散布液)を対象となる生物(防除対象生物または保護対象生物)に散布する。すなわち、本明細書における「散布液」とは、対象生物に対して実際に散布される液体を指す。したがって、もし農業用薬剤を希釈せずに散布した場合には、農業用薬剤が散布液となる。 In addition, when using a pharmaceutical embedded agricultural chemical, the user (agricultural worker) dilutes the pharmaceutical embedded agricultural chemical by dissolving it in water or by dispersing it in water. Then, the user sprays the diluted liquid (spray liquid) on the target organism (control target organism or protection target organism). That is, the “spreading liquid” in the present specification refers to a liquid that is actually sprayed on the target organism. Therefore, if the agricultural chemical is sprayed without dilution, the agricultural chemical becomes the spray liquid.
 (タンクミックス型農業用薬剤)
 ここまで、製剤組み込み型農業用薬剤について説明した。次に、タンクミックス型農業用薬剤の一実施形態について説明する。タンクミックス型農業用薬剤における農業用薬剤組成物には、上述したように、脂肪酸エステル乳化物およびアミンのいずれか一方が含まれているか、あるいは、両方とも含まれていない(パターン2~4)。したがって、タンクミックス型農業用薬剤は、農業用薬剤組成物に不足しているアジュバントを添加することで得られる。
(Tank mix type agricultural chemicals)
So far, the pharmaceutical embedded agricultural chemical has been described. Next, an embodiment of a tank mix type agricultural chemical will be described. As described above, the agricultural chemical composition in the tank mix type agricultural chemical contains either or both of the fatty acid ester emulsion and the amine (patterns 2 to 4). . Therefore, a tank mix type agricultural chemical can be obtained by adding an adjuvant that is lacking in the agricultural pharmaceutical composition.
 タンクミックス型農業用薬剤であっても、アミン、脂肪酸エステルおよび有効成分は上述した製剤組み込み型と同様のものを用いることができる。また、脂肪酸エステルを乳化するためには、先と同様に界面活性剤を添加すればよい。散布液中の脂肪酸エステルの液滴径は、製剤組み込み型の場合と同様に、重量中位径で5~30μmの範囲であることが好ましく、5~25μmの範囲であることがより好ましく、10~20μmの範囲であることがさらに好ましい。 Even if it is a tank mix type agricultural chemical, the same amine, fatty acid ester and active ingredient as those in the above-mentioned preparation incorporation type can be used. Further, in order to emulsify the fatty acid ester, a surfactant may be added in the same manner as described above. The droplet diameter of the fatty acid ester in the spray liquid is preferably in the range of 5 to 30 μm, more preferably in the range of 5 to 25 μm in terms of the weight median diameter, as in the case of the formulation incorporation type. More preferably, it is in the range of ˜20 μm.
 なお、タンクミックス型農業用薬剤において散布液を調製するための溶媒は、入手が容易であり、環境負荷がないことから一般的には水を用いる。なお、水媒体の農業用薬剤では、アジュバント添加の効果がより一層発揮される。 In addition, since a solvent for preparing a spray liquid in a tank mix type agricultural chemical is easy to obtain and has no environmental impact, water is generally used. It should be noted that the effect of adding an adjuvant is further exhibited in the agricultural chemicals in the aqueous medium.
 また、タンクミックス型農業用薬剤であっても、アミンおよび脂肪酸エステル乳化物以外に製剤組み込み型農業用薬剤の場合と同様の成分を含むことができる。 Further, even a tank mix type agricultural chemical can contain the same components as in the case of a pharmaceutical embedded agricultural chemical in addition to the amine and fatty acid ester emulsion.
 タンクミックス型農業用薬剤の有利な点としては、アジュバントを含まない農薬製剤の効果を使用者(農業従事者)の目的に応じて選択されたアジュバントによって増強することが可能となることが挙げられる。 Advantages of tank mix type agricultural chemicals include that the effect of an agrochemical formulation that does not contain an adjuvant can be enhanced by an adjuvant selected according to the purpose of the user (farmer). .
 (タンクミックス型農業用薬剤の製造方法)
 本発明に係るタンクミックス型農業用薬剤は、農業用薬剤組成物に含有されている成分に応じてその製造(調製)方法が異なる。すなわち、パターン2~4のいずれの農業用薬剤組成物であるかに応じてその製造方法が異なる。各パターンにおける製造方法について以下に説明する。
(Method for producing tank mix type agricultural chemicals)
The tank mix type agricultural chemical according to the present invention differs in its production (preparation) method depending on the components contained in the agricultural chemical composition. That is, the production method differs depending on which of the agricultural chemical compositions in patterns 2 to 4. The manufacturing method in each pattern is demonstrated below.
 農業用薬剤に含まれる農業用薬剤組成物がパターン2である場合、タンクミックス型農業用薬剤の製造方法は、有効成分および脂肪酸エステル乳化物を含有する農業用薬剤組成物にアミンを混合するアミン混合工程を含む。 When the agricultural chemical composition contained in the agricultural chemical is pattern 2, the method for producing a tank mix type agricultural chemical includes an amine mixed with an agricultural pharmaceutical composition containing an active ingredient and a fatty acid ester emulsion. Including a mixing step.
 農業用薬剤に含まれる農業用薬剤組成物がパターン3である場合、タンクミックス型農業用薬剤の製造方法は、有効成分およびアミンを含有する農業用薬剤組成物に脂肪酸エステル乳化物を混合する脂肪酸エステル混合工程を含む。 When the agricultural chemical composition contained in the agricultural chemical is pattern 3, the method for producing a tank mix type agricultural chemical includes a fatty acid ester emulsion mixed with an agricultural pharmaceutical composition containing an active ingredient and an amine. An ester mixing step is included.
 農業用薬剤に含まれる農業用薬剤組成物がパターン4である場合、タンクミックス型農業用薬剤の製造方法は、有効成分を含有する農業用薬剤組成物にアミンおよび脂肪酸エステル乳化物を混合する添加物混合工程を含む。 When the agricultural chemical composition contained in the agricultural chemical is pattern 4, the method for producing a tank mix type agricultural chemical is to add an amine and a fatty acid ester emulsion to the agricultural pharmaceutical composition containing the active ingredient A product mixing step.
 これらの各混合工程における混合条件は、有効成分、アミンおよび脂肪酸エステル乳化物の種類に応じて適宜設定すればよい。 The mixing conditions in each of these mixing steps may be appropriately set according to the types of the active ingredient, amine and fatty acid ester emulsion.
 タンクミックス型農業用薬剤における各混合工程は、通常、水などの溶媒に溶解した農業用薬剤組成物に脂肪酸エステル乳化物および/またはアミンを混合する。すなわち、タンクミックス型農業用薬剤は、そのまま散布液として用いることができる。 In each mixing step in the tank mix type agricultural chemical, the fatty acid ester emulsion and / or amine is usually mixed with the agricultural chemical composition dissolved in a solvent such as water. That is, the tank mix type agricultural chemical can be used as a spray liquid as it is.
 タンクミックス型農業用薬剤において農業用薬剤組成物にアミンおよび/または脂肪酸エステル乳化物を混合するタイミングは、散布前であれば特に限定されるものではない。すなわち、タンクミックス型農業用薬剤では、農業用薬剤組成物とアジュバントとを別に販売するようにしてもよい。 In the tank mix type agricultural chemical, the timing of mixing the amine and / or fatty acid ester emulsion with the agricultural chemical composition is not particularly limited as long as it is before spraying. That is, in the tank mix type agricultural chemical, the agricultural chemical composition and the adjuvant may be sold separately.
 なお、脂肪酸エステル乳化物は、界面活性剤を添加して脂肪酸エステル乳化物を溶媒に添加して作製すればよい。なお、農業用薬剤組成物は従来公知の方法により作製すればよい。 The fatty acid ester emulsion may be prepared by adding a surfactant and adding the fatty acid ester emulsion to a solvent. In addition, what is necessary is just to produce an agricultural chemical composition by a conventionally well-known method.
 (農業用薬剤におけるその他の成分、農業用薬剤の用途)
 タンクミックス型農業用薬剤であっても、農業用薬剤組成物およびアジュバントの他に製剤組み込み型農業用薬剤において用いることができる成分と同様の成分を含むことができる。また、タンクミックス型農業用薬剤は、製剤組み込み型農業用薬剤と同様の用途に用いることができる。
(Other ingredients in agricultural chemicals, uses of agricultural chemicals)
Even a tank mix type agricultural chemical can contain the same components as those which can be used in a pharmaceutical incorporated agricultural chemical in addition to the agricultural pharmaceutical composition and adjuvant. In addition, the tank mix type agricultural chemical can be used for the same application as the pharmaceutical embedded agricultural chemical.
 (農業用薬剤の利点)
 以上説明したように、製剤組み込み型農業用薬剤は、農業用薬剤組成物中に有効成分、アミンおよび脂肪酸エステル乳化物を含有している。これによって、例え散布時に農業用薬剤を希釈したとしても、有効成分は対象となる生物に対する活性を安定して十分に発揮することができる。
(Advantages of agricultural chemicals)
As described above, the preparation-incorporated agricultural chemical contains an active ingredient, an amine and a fatty acid ester emulsion in the agricultural chemical composition. Thereby, even if the agricultural chemical is diluted at the time of spraying, the active ingredient can stably and sufficiently exert the activity against the target organism.
 また、タンクミックス型農業用薬剤は、アミンおよび脂肪酸エステル乳化物のいずれか一方が農業用薬剤組成物に含まれており、他方は一方の含まれている農業用薬剤組成物に添加される。もしくは、タンクミックス型農業用薬剤は、アミンおよび脂肪酸エステル乳化物の双方が、有効成分を含む農業用薬剤組成物に添加される。これによって、散布された有効成分は、対象となる生物に対する活性を安定して十分に発揮することができる。 Further, in the tank mix type agricultural chemical, either one of the amine and the fatty acid ester emulsion is contained in the agricultural pharmaceutical composition, and the other is added to the agricultural chemical composition contained therein. Alternatively, in the tank mix type agricultural chemical, both the amine and the fatty acid ester emulsion are added to the agricultural pharmaceutical composition containing the active ingredient. Thereby, the spread active ingredient can exhibit the activity with respect to the target organism stably and sufficiently.
 すなわち、製剤組み込み型農業用薬剤およびタンクミックス型農業用薬剤のいずれであっても、同一の効果を得るために必要な農業用薬剤組成物(有効成分)の使用量を低減することができる。これによって、散布コストおよび散布に要する労力を低減することができる。また、環境中に放出される農業用薬剤組成物およびその他の化学物質の量を低減することもできる。 That is, it is possible to reduce the amount of the agricultural chemical composition (active ingredient) used to obtain the same effect regardless of whether it is a formulation-embedded agricultural chemical or a tank mix type agricultural chemical. Thereby, the spraying cost and the labor required for spraying can be reduced. It can also reduce the amount of agricultural pharmaceutical compositions and other chemicals released into the environment.
 (付記事項)
 ここで、本明細書における「効果の増強」とは、散布された農業用薬剤組成物に含有されている有効成分(活性成分とも称する)の効果が高められていることを意味している。すなわち、アミンおよび脂肪酸エステル乳化物を含有する農業用薬剤を散布した場合の有効成分の活性が、アミンおよび脂肪酸エステル乳化物を含有していない農業用薬剤を散布した場合の有効成分の活性よりも高くなっていることを指す。なお、活性の高低については、防除価の高低により判断している。
(Additional notes)
Here, “enhancement of effect” in the present specification means that the effect of an active ingredient (also referred to as an active ingredient) contained in the sprayed agricultural pharmaceutical composition is enhanced. That is, the activity of the active ingredient when the agricultural chemical containing the amine and fatty acid ester emulsion is sprayed is more than the activity of the active ingredient when the agricultural chemical not containing the amine and fatty acid ester emulsion is sprayed. It means being higher. The level of activity is determined by the level of the control value.

 2.試験方法
 プラスチック製3号ポットに園芸用培土を充填し、小麦7粒を播種し約4葉期に生長した植物を各例5ポットずつ試験に用いた。
 直径90cmのターンテーブルに5つのポットを配置しターンテーブルに外接する1mの範囲に各散布液を、スプレーガンを使って均一に散布した。薬剤散布を済ませたポットは屋内で1時間風乾した後、潅水用スプレーの下に並べ人工降雨処理を1時間行った。ポット間に設置したシリンダーの水量から平均の降雨量は38mm/時間であったことが分かった。
2. Test Method A pot No. 3 made of plastic was filled with horticultural soil, 7 plants of wheat were sown and grown in about 4 leaf stages, and 5 pots were used for each test.
Five pots were placed on a turntable having a diameter of 90 cm, and each spray solution was sprayed uniformly using a spray gun in a range of 1 m 2 circumscribing the turntable. Pots that had been sprayed with chemicals were air-dried indoors for 1 hour, and then placed under an irrigation spray and subjected to artificial rain treatment for 1 hour. It was found from the amount of water in the cylinders installed between the pots that the average rainfall was 38 mm / hour.
 翌日までポットを室内で管理した後赤さび病菌をスプレーで噴霧接種し、2日間湿度100%の湿箱内に保管した後、室内で通常の潅水管理を行った。接種から10日目に赤かび病の発病面積を目視にて観察し、発病度について0~5のランクづけを行った。5つのポットの平均を求めた後、下記式(1)により防除価を算出した。0~5のランクの内容は以下の通りである。 After the pot was managed indoors until the next day, the red rust fungus was spray-inoculated with a spray and stored in a 100% humidity chamber for 2 days, followed by normal irrigation management indoors. On the 10th day after the inoculation, the area of red mold disease was visually observed, and the severity was ranked from 0 to 5. After calculating the average of the five pots, the control value was calculated by the following formula (1). The contents of ranks 0 to 5 are as follows.

 3.試験結果
 試験結果を表2および表3に示す。従来の方法で調製した散布用希釈液(アミンおよび脂肪酸エステルのいずれも含まない散布用希釈液:比較例1)の赤さび病に対する防除価は65.0であった。アミンのみを含む散布用希釈液(比較例3)の赤さび病に対する防除価は60.1であり、脂肪酸エステルのみを含む散布用希釈液(比較例2)の赤さび病に対する防除価は65.9であった。
3. Test results Test results are shown in Tables 2 and 3. The control value for red rust of the spraying diluent prepared by a conventional method (spraying diluent containing neither amine nor fatty acid ester: Comparative Example 1) was 65.0. The control value against red rust of the spraying dilute solution containing only amine (Comparative Example 3) is 60.1, and the control value against red rust of the diluting solution containing only fatty acid ester (Comparative Example 2) is 65.9. Met.
 一方、アミンおよびダイズ油メチル化物を含む散布用希釈液(実施例1,2,3,6,7)の赤さび病に対する防除価はそれぞれ88.5,80.5,79.3,72.3,66.1であり、アミンおよび菜種油を含む散布用希釈液(実施例4)の赤さび病に対する防除価は73.4であった。すなわち、比較例1~3に対して、実施例1~4,6および7では防除価が大きく向上した。 On the other hand, the spraying dilutions (Examples 1, 2, 3, 6, 7) containing amine and soybean oil methylated were 88.5, 80.5, 79.3, 72.3 for red rust disease, respectively. 66.1, and the controlling value against red rust of the diluting liquid for dispersion (Example 4) containing amine and rapeseed oil was 73.4. That is, compared with Comparative Examples 1 to 3, Examples 1 to 4, 6 and 7 have greatly improved control value.
 また、上記は有効成分としてメトコナゾールを用いた場合であるが、上述したアゾール系化合物のいずれを用いた場合にも、同様の結果が得られた。すなわち、従来の方法で調製した散布用希釈液(アミンおよび脂肪酸エステルのいずれも含まない散布用希釈液:比較例4)の赤さび病に対する防除価は65.9であった一方で、アミンおよびダイズ油メチル化物を含む散布用希釈液(実施例5)の赤さび病に対する防除価は68.5であった。したがって、有効成分として上述したアゾール系化合物のいずれを用いた場合であっても、アミンおよび脂肪酸エステル乳化物の添加により有効成分の活性が増強されていることが示された。 In addition, the above is a case where metconazole is used as an active ingredient, but the same result was obtained when any of the above-mentioned azole compounds was used. That is, the spraying dilution prepared by the conventional method (spraying dilution containing neither amine nor fatty acid ester: Comparative Example 4) had a control value against red rust of 65.9, whereas amine and soybean The control value against the red rust of the spraying diluent (Example 5) containing an oil methylated product was 68.5. Therefore, it was shown that the activity of the active ingredient was enhanced by the addition of the amine and the fatty acid ester emulsion even when any of the azole compounds described above was used as the active ingredient.
 また、製剤組み込み型の散布用希釈液(実施例8)の赤さび病に対する防除価は95.4であり、比較例1~3に対して防除価が大きく向上した。すなわち、タンクミックス型および製剤組み込み型のいずれであっても、アミンおよび脂肪酸エステル乳化物の添加により有効成分の活性が増強されていることが示された。 In addition, the control value for the red rust of the formulation-incorporated diluting solution (Example 8) was 95.4, which was a significant improvement over Comparative Examples 1 to 3. That is, it was shown that the activity of the active ingredient was enhanced by the addition of the amine and the fatty acid ester emulsion in both the tank mix type and the formulation incorporation type.
 さらに、実施例のうち、脂肪酸エステル乳化物の液滴径が1.92μmおよび2.28μmである散布用希釈液(実施例6および7)の赤さび病に対する防除価は72.3および66.1であり、上述のとおり、比較例1~3に対して防除価が向上した。しかし、同一の成分からなる散布用希釈液であり、脂肪酸エステル乳化物の液滴径が4.66,14.04,16.84,18.0μmである散布用希釈液(実施例1~4)よりは防除価が小さかった。これによって、有効成分の活性は、液滴径が大きい方がより一層増強されることが示された。 Further, among the examples, the control value against red rust of the diluting liquid for dispersion (Examples 6 and 7) in which the droplet diameter of the fatty acid ester emulsion is 1.92 μm and 2.28 μm is 72.3 and 66.1. As described above, the control value was improved with respect to Comparative Examples 1 to 3. However, it is a diluting solution for spraying composed of the same components, and the diluting solution for spraying having droplet diameters of fatty acid ester emulsions of 4.66, 14.04, 16.84, 18.0 μm (Examples 1 to 4). ) Was smaller than the control value. Thus, it was shown that the activity of the active ingredient is further enhanced when the droplet diameter is large.
 本発明に係る農業用薬剤は、散布時に希釈して使用する農業用薬剤として好適に利用することができる。 The agricultural chemical according to the present invention can be suitably used as an agricultural chemical that is diluted when sprayed.
