CILICONE

Silicone Surfactant

• Cilicone seems to benefit certain plants when they are under stress
• It is an organic surfactant with super ability of spreading by reducing surface tension
• It has been found to improve drought tolerance
• It also causes delay in wilting in certain crops where irrigation is withheld and may enhance the plant’s ability to resist micronutrient and other metal toxicities (i.e. aluminum, copper, iron, manganese, zinc, etc.)
• Cilicone has been found to help increase stem strength
• It improves absorption of pesticides by plants
• Also improves the efficacy of pesticides and reduces damage of plants
• It also improves tolerance to rainfall
