1.Basic Properties

·Chemical Name: Methyl 1-benzimidazolylcarbamate

·Molecular Formula: C₉H₉N₃O₂

·CAS Number: 10605 - 21 - 7

·Appearance: The pure product is a white crystalline powder, odorless, slightly soluble in water (29 mg/L, 20℃), and easily soluble in organic solvents such as acetone and chloroform.

·Stability: It is stable under acidic or neutral conditions and easily decomposes when exposed to strong alkalis.

2.Mechanism of Action and Characteristics

·Mechanism of Action: By inhibiting the synthesis of tubulin in fungal cells, it prevents cell division and hyphal growth, thus achieving a bactericidal effect. It belongs to systemic fungicides and can be absorbed by the roots,   stems, and leaves of plants and transported throughout the plant.

·Control Targets: Diseases caused by Fusarium, Penicillium, Botrytis cinerea, Colletotrichum, Physalospora piricola, etc., such as Fusarium wilt, anthracnose, Botrytis cinerea, powdery mildew, leaf spot, etc.

·Applicable Crops: Widely used in food crops (rice, wheat), cash crops (cotton, soybean), fruits and vegetables (apple, grape, tomato, cucumber), flowers and Chinese herbal medicines, etc.

3.Common dosage forms and usage methods

·Formulations: 50% Wettable Powder (WP), 25% Suspension Concentrate (SC), 80% Water Dispersible Granule (WDG), 40% Colloidal Suspension, etc.

·Usage Method:

 Spraying: Dilute 500 - 1000 times (adjust according to crops and diseases), and evenly spray on the leaves and stems. Focus on prevention at the early stage of the disease or before the disease occurs.

 Seed Dressing / Seed Soaking: Control seedling diseases (such as wheat bunt), and the dosage is 0.1% - 0.3% of the seed weight.

 Root Drenching / Soil Treatment: Control soil - borne diseases (such as watermelon wilt), and drench the roots after dilution.
