Abstract

The current study produced suspoemulsion formulations of azoxystrobin 6% + propiconazole 10%, resulting in a more responsible approach to crop protection. SE's physical and chemical properties were examined utilizing numerous tests and HPLC for active ingredient analysis, according to CIPAC techniques. Our results indicated that three SE formulations had the optimum physical properties. The SE formulations were C3, C1, and A2, respectively. The sample C3 SE was prepared using azoxystrobin 25% SC (24%), propiconazole 25% EC (40%), soltex 6% thickener (7.3%), and up to 100% of distilled water. While C1 SE was formulated using Azoxystrobin 25% SC (24%), Propiconazole 25% EC (40%), Thickener 6% sol (9.3%), and up to 100% of distilled water. However, the optimum SE formulation that succeeded in both the physical and chemical tests was A2, which was developed using azoxystrobin 25% SC (24%), propiconazole 25% EC (40%), thickener 6% sol (9.3%), and up to 100% of distilled water. Sample SE (A2) was the only sample that had an appropriate active ingredient concentration for azoxystrobin before and after storage (5.814% and 5.729%, respectively), as well as propiconazole 10% before and after storage (10.138% and 9.945%, respectively).
