HOOK

Need better coverage from your spray mix?

The Answer is HOOK

Hook is the only adjuvant that does it all!

HOOK is a new generation activator, penetrant, sticker, deposition agent, spreader, drift control.

HOOK IS A REVOLUTIONARY PRODUCT

HOOK is more than an adjuvant capable of spreading and enhancing chemical penetration into the plant. It is capable of making the active ingredients in your spray mixture behave as surfactants. Notice we said surfactant(s).

HOOK is a zwitterionic surfactant. (Yes, that’s a real word). Zwitterionic surfactants have two ionogenic groups producing a cationic and an anion.They can be ampholytic and can behave as cationic, anionic, or non-ionic surfactant depending upon the pH of the solution. Hook adapts to the type of pesticide and spray solution used!

Why is this important?


This is important because HOOK has superior adhesion to plant surfaces, improving contact activity which means more efficient spreading and penetrating power to your active ingredient without adding a lot of soap.

  • Adapts to the type of pesticide solution used... zwitterionic
  • Excellent drift control
  • Helps spray solution stick to the target
  • Optimizes coverage and improves penetration
  • Reduces droplet bounce-off
  • Reduces evaporation loss
  • Reduces foam
  • Stays in suspension for more even coverage

What are our customers saying?

"I don't spray anything without HOOK because it wets so much better than other products. HOOK makes whatever you use more effective too so you don't need to apply the insecticides and herbicides as strong."

"I use HOOK with all my herbicide, insecticide, plant growth regulator and defoliant applications. I can really tell a difference with my Roundup application in cotton when I use HOOK. I get better control, quicker results and more consistent kill."
KEVIN LEWIS
Grower

"We've used other chemical companies' products in the past, but we like HOOK the best. It works faster, it's easier to mix and it helps spread the material on the plants better. We've never put it in anything where it didn't work. IT ALWAYS WORKS."

OPTIMIZED COVERAGE

HOOK allows your active ingredient to become a surface tension reducing compound. One of the benefits of this action is the fact that less actual surfactant is needed to reduce the surface tension to a desired level. Less chemical film on the plant allows the active ingredient to work like it should.

It also reduces the rate at which the sticker is washed away by run-off caused by rain or irrigation, thereby improving the performance of the pesticide.

Because HOOK creates uniform droplets for better deposition you reap a dual benefit: more efficient control plus longer time of control.

And HOOK provides excellent Lower Canopy Coverage coupled with Excellent Drift Control.

IMPROVED PENETRATION

Whether the leaf structure is: Broadleaf • Grass • Waxy

HOOK can handle the job. A plant's natural barrier to absorption is the leaf cuticle. This cuticle is a complex matrix of materials that vary in water soluability.

HOOK's wide range of penetration allows the active ingredient to penetrate...even waxy leaf cuticle.

The chemical will be attracted to the negatively charged leaf surface (waxy plant leaf surfaces are highly aydrophobic and have a negative charge) due to the unique composition of HOOK.

The chemical itself can act as a surfactant to help penetrate the crystalline waxy surface of the leaf.

ENHANCED STICKING POWER

The sticking of fungicides is also enhanced by the nature of the fatty acid-amine surfactant generated.The complex formed carries a positive charge, and is attracted to the negative charge on the plant itself. The sticker maintains the contact, once contact is made.

ADD HOOK LAST!
