Application of nanocellulose in the field of pesticides

Nanocellulose is a new material with excellent properties. Due to its advantages of high specific surface area, high mechanical strength, good biocompatibility and renewability, it has a wide application prospect in the field of pesticides. The following are some specific applications of nanocellulose in the field of pesticides:

1. Pesticide carrier: Nanocellulose can be used as a carrier for pesticides. Its high specific surface area and porous structure help increase the load and release efficiency of pesticides. By loading pesticides on nanocellulose, the sustained release of pesticides can be achieved, the utilization rate of pesticides can be improved, and the use of pesticides and environmental pollution can be reduced.

2. Pesticide Capsules: Nanocellulose can be used to prepare pesticide capsules. By controlling the structure and surface properties of nanocellulose, the controlled release of pesticides under specific environmental conditions can be achieved. For example, under specific pH , temperature or humidity conditions, nanocellulose pesticide capsules can gradually release pesticides, providing long-lasting pest control effects.

3. Pesticide film: Nanocellulose can be made into pesticide films, covering the surface of the crop to form a protective layer. This membrane can not only delay the volatility and degradation of pesticides, but also enhance the adhesion of pesticides and improve the effectiveness of pesticides. In addition, the nanocellulose membrane can also block ultraviolet rays, reduce the photolysis of pesticides, thereby improving the stability of pesticides.

4. Pesticide suspension agent: Nanocellulose has good suspension stability and can be used as a thickener and stabilizer for pesticide suspension agent. Nanocellulose can improve the viscosity of pesticide suspension, prevent pesticides from sedimentation during storage and transportation, and improve pesticide uniformity and use effect.

5. Environmentally friendly pesticides: Nanocellulose is a natural renewable resource with good biodegradability and will not cause long-term pollution to the environment. Combining nanocellulose with biopesticides can develop environmentally friendly pesticides, reduce the use of chemical pesticides, and reduce environmental pollution and ecological risks.

6. Intelligent pesticide system: Using the responsiveness of For example, by introducing responsive groups into nanocellulose, the intelligent release of pesticides under specific conditions (such as when diseases and pests invade) can be achieved, and the utilization efficiency and prevention and control effect of pesticides can be improved.nanocellulose , an intelligent pesticide system can be developed.

These applications can not only improve the efficiency of pesticide use and reduce environmental pollution, but also provide more accurate and lasting pest control effects, with important practical application value and broad market prospects.
