Advanced Surfactants and Micelle Formation
OROWET® technology builds upon advanced surfactants with a distinct molecular structure characterized by hydrophobic tails that repel water and hydrophilic heads that attract it. Moreover, when combined with water, these surfactants form micelles—spherical structures that encapsulate lipophilic substances such as certain pesticides and natural extracts. This micelle formation is essential for protecting these substances from degradation and ensuring their uniform distribution in a spray solution.

Incorporation of Natural Extracts

Addressing Agricultural Spraying Challenges
A major issue in agricultural spraying is the effective delivery and absorption of active ingredients by plants or pests. Many active ingredients are lipophilic and do not mix well with water. Moreover, it can lead to evaporation or degradation before reaching their targets.

OROWET® Solution: Micelle Encapsulation
OROWET® technology tackles these challenges through micelle encapsulation. By forming micelles, which protect active ingredients from evaporation and degradation. However, it ensures even distribution and efficient delivery in water-based sprays.

Mechanism of Action

• Micro-Droplet Formation: When mixed with water, OROWET® formulations create micelles that encapsulate active ingredients and natural extracts, resulting in uniformly suspended micro-droplets. This guarantees even application over the target area.
• Adherence and Release: Upon contact with lipid-containing structures on plants or pests, the hydrophobic parts of the micelles adhere to these surfaces . While, causing the micelles to break open and release the active ingredients and natural extracts directly onto the target.
• Enhanced Penetration: The released substances merge with biological surfaces, changing the crystal-like lipid structures to a more amorphous form, which enhances the penetration of active ingredients into the pest’s protective layers or the plant’s cuticle.
• Selective Penetration: OROWET® formulations are designed to avoid damaging the underlying cell membranes of plants, balancing efficacy and safety.

Benefits of OROWET® Technology

• Increased Efficacy of Pesticides: By enhancing the penetration of pesticides, OROWET® ensures that active ingredients reach their targets more effectively. However, it leads to improved pest control.
• Reduction in Volatility: The Encapsulation within micelles protects active ingredients from evaporating quickly. Moreover, by ensuring more effective delivery to the target.
• Uniform Application: The formation of micro-droplets ensures even distribution of the spray by reducing the chances of under- or over-application in different areas.
• Sustainability: Utilizing advanced surfactant chemistry and natural extracts aligns with sustainable agricultural practices, reducing reliance on excessive amounts of synthetic chemicals.
• Safety:  Carefully formulated to avoid harming plant cells, OROWET® offers a safer alternative for crop protection and nutrient delivery.

Conclusion

OROWET® technology exemplifies how innovative solutions can enhance agricultural practices by improving the delivery and efficacy of active ingredients. By combining advanced surfactants with natural extracts, OROWET® transforms traditional spraying methods into a highly effective and environmentally friendly approach. For farmers and agricultural professionals seeking to enhance their crop protection strategies, OROWET® technology provides an effective and sustainable cutting-edge tool
