Abstract
For studying the role of acetone and surfactant in solution, and selecting the best surfactant for spray solution in herbicide screening, the solubilizability of 6 nonionic surfactant-acetone aqueous solutions to 18 herbicide technicals, their foliar wettability and phytotoxicity to soybean and rice plant were tested and evaluated. The solubilizability of surfactant-acetone aqueous solutions to herbicide technicals was dependent on the acetone content of solutions, and was less affected by nonionic surfactant. Foliar wettability of the surfactant solutions was good to soybean, but only polyoxyethylene lauryl ether HLB 13.6(LE-13.6) solution showed good wettability to rice plant within the concentration range of no phytotoxicity. Tween 20(0.1%), LE-13.6(0.01%) and polyoxyethylene nonylphenyl ether HLB 16.0(0.01%) solutions didn't induce phytotoxicity to soybean, and most of the surfactant solutions didn't induce phytotoxicity to rice plant. There was no surfactant that showed superior emulsifiability to various herbicide technicals, good foliar wettability to plants, and no phytotoxicity, but LE-13.6 was better than others.
