toxicity | acute oral LD50 for male rats is 809 mg/kg and 684 mg/kg for females. Acute percutaneous LD50 in rabbits was 1870mg/kg. The content of 300 mg/kg dicofol feed was fed to dogs for 1 year, and no poisoning was found. Carp LC501.1mg/L (48h), does not harm natural enemies. |
use | broad-spectrum acaricide, effective for adult mites, juvenile mites and eggs. It has better selectivity, does not harm natural enemies, and is safe for Fenglou. Harmful mites are mainly contact killing, with long residual effect and no systemic effect. It is used to prevent and control various harmful mites of cotton, fruit trees and flowers. It is easy to produce resistance after years of use. When in use, the 20% emulsifiable concentrate is evenly sprayed with 800~1500 times of water. For initial use or when the temperature is high, the dilution multiple can be expanded. widely used in cotton, fruit trees, tea and other crops to control red spider non-systemic acaricide, used to control mites of various crops calibration instruments and devices; evaluation methods; working standards; quality assurance/quality control; others. Used as an acaricide. It is mainly used to prevent and control red spiders in cotton, fruit trees, corn, and wheat. It has the effects of contact killing and stomach poisoning, as well as killing adults, and has a certain egg killing effect. Generally, the concentration used is 800-1500 times diluted, the control effect is above 90%, and the duration is 10-20d. This product is harmful to eggplant and red jade apples.

production method | DDT is treated with dichloroethane as solvent, 1% azobisisobutyronitrile as catalyst, chlorine is introduced at 80~90 ℃ for reaction for 2 hours, and then the solvent is distilled out under reduced pressure. The hydrolysis reaction of the hydrolyzed chlorinated product is carried out in a mixed acidic medium of p-toluenesulfonic acid 33%, sulfuric acid 33%, and water 33%, and aryl iodate acid or lower alkyl sulfonic acid is used as an accelerator to react at 135~150 ℃ for 5~6h, and then an appropriate amount of low boiling point solvent dichloroethane and water are added to form two layers of oil and water. The oil layer is extracted, and the solvent is evaporated under reduced pressure to obtain dicofol. It is obtained by chlorination of industrial DDT under the catalysis of azobisisobutyronitrile, and the chloride is then hydrolyzed by formic acid. |
