A rating of excellent (homogeneous), verygood, good, fair, and poor (nonhomogeneous) is assigned.3.1.3 DiscussionCream and oil separation may coexist.Normally, oil is

Summary of Test Method4.1 In this test method, emulsifi

11、able pesticide concentratesare added to water of a given hardness and at a specifiedtemperature to form an oil-in-water emulsion. Performance ofthe formulation is measured in terms of emulsion spontaneity,emulsion stability under static conditions, and re-emulsification of the coalesced phase.5. Sig

Delivery rate shouldbe approximately 1 mL/s. Observe and record emulsificationspontaneity.8.3 Stopper the graduated cylinders (

29、do not grease) theninvert and right each cylinder ten times at the rate of about onecomplete cycle every 2 s. Record the initial emulsion quality.8.4 Maintain each cylinder at 25 C or at a constanttemperature (Note 4) and allow the cylinders to remainundisturbed. At 15 min, 30 min, 1 h, 2 h, and 24

31、 and the millilitres of cream or oilseparation, or both.8.6 Discard the emulsions in a safe manner.9. Precision and Bias9.1 Due to the variability of cream separation, oil separa-tion, and subjectiveness of emulsion quality for the particularpesticide, no measurement of precision and bias can be mad
