Spreading and wetting agents, also known as surfactants, are chemical compounds that are added to agricultural sprays or other liquid applications to improve their spreading and wetting properties. These agents work by reducing the surface tension of the liquid, allowing it to spread more evenly over the surface of the plant or soil, and enabling it to penetrate the waxy cuticle of the plant for better absorption.
In agriculture, spreading and wetting agents are commonly used with pesticides, herbicides, and fertilizers to improve their efficacy and reduce the amount of runoff or drift that occurs during application. By improving the coverage and penetration of the spray, spreading and wetting agents can help to ensure that the active ingredient reaches the target pest or plant for better control or growth promotion.
There are several types of spreading and wetting agents used in agrochemicals, including surfactants, adjuvants, and stickers. Some common examples include non-ionic surfactants, anionic surfactants, silicone surfactants, polymeric surfactants, and tank-mix adjuvants. The specific type of spreader or wetting agent used will depend on the characteristics of the product being applied and the target plant or pest.

Wet 50 is a non-ionic spray adjuvant, it is very effective in Spreading, Penetrating & Wetting, vegetable leaves, fruits, etc. Which in turn allows the effective distribution of pesticides & fungicides.
Advantages :
1) Lowers Surface Tension to 20-22 Dynes / Cm., So that the spray solution is retained on the leaves and does not fall off in the form of droplets.
2) Improve spray coverage Spreads the spray solution on the total surface area of the leaves thus reducing the volume of spray solution required.
3) Compatibility with most formulations.
4) Non-ionic It does not react chemically with most agrochemicals so does not affect their chemical stability.

Wetting sticking agents are adjuvants that facilitate and accentuate the emulsifying, dispersing, spreading, wetting, and other surface modifying properties of liquid formulations used in agriculture.
It is transparent, Thick & Sticky liquid most suitable as multipurpose spray adjuvant, & can be used with Bio fertilizer, Growth promoters, Liquid formulations, Herbicides, Weedicides, Insecticides, Pesticides and other Agro chemicals.
It improves and promotes wetting, Sticking and absorption. It Increases the foliar coverage and absorption of the spray in the plants. This may be applied with ground sprayer, Aerial sprayers, or center pivot irrigation systems and are non-toxic and are environmentally safe.
