Daisy J&M NonIonic Surfactant 128oz - 90/10 | Wetting and Penetration for Pesticide Sprays

Overview

The Daisy J&M 90/10 Nonionic Surfactant is designed to optimize spray performance by improving how formulations spread and reach their targets. Packaged in a 128oz bottle, this ammonium sulfate–free blend lowers surface tension and encourages even coverage across a variety of leaf textures and surface conditions. It’s formulated to work with a wide range of crop protection products, making it suitable for both agricultural crops and non-crop applications.

Why choose Daisy J&M 90/10?

• Better wetting and spreading on tough or waxy surfaces, supporting uniform canopy coverage.
• Increased contact time can help active ingredients reach sites of action more effectively.
• Broad compatibility with many labels and active ingredients for flexible tank-mix planning.
• Versatile for horticulture, nursery settings, turf management, and general pest control programs.
• Ammonium sulfate–free formulation reduces potential interactions with certain products.

How it works

The 90/10 nonionic formulation lowers the surface tension of spray droplets, allowing them to spread more readily across leaf surfaces and into small crevices. A reduced contact angle means the mix is less likely to bead and runoff, helping the active ingredient stay in contact with the target longer and promoting more even distribution through the canopy.

Real-world scenarios

• Ornamental plants with glossy or textured leaves where even coverage matters most.
• Nursery settings applying foliar pesticides or fungicides to dense plantings.
• Turf and landscape applications requiring broad, consistent coverage on irregular surfaces.
• Greenhouse or field programs using wettable powders and other formulations that benefit from robust spread.

Usage and compatibility

Always follow label directions for your specific spray program. Add this nonionic surfactant to your tank mix as directed, and perform a compatibility test before combining with other products. It is designed to work with a broad range of formulations and is suitable for both agricultural and non-crop uses.

Applications and potential benefits

Compatible with insecticides, fungicides, herbicides, and wettable powders, this surfactant can help improve coverage and potential uptake without adding ammonium sulfate. Results vary with target species, application rate, and environmental conditions, but users may notice more uniform leaf coverage and better spread on tougher surfaces.

Tips for best results

• Test compatibility in a small batch before full-scale use.
• Follow label guidance on the correct mixing order and dosage.
• Consider environmental conditions; cooler mornings may enhance linger time on foliage.

Storage and safety

Store in a cool, dry place, tightly closed, away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Handle according to standard label safety guidelines, as this product is intended for professional use.
