Overview
Momentive Performance Materials manufactures and offers globally a broad product
line of specialty silicones to be considered for agricultural applications. These silicone
specialty products marketed under the Silwet*, AgroSpred* and SAG* brand names are
widely used as tank mix adjuvants, in-can adjuvants and foam control agents to enhance
the delivery and efficacy of many pesticide products.

Silwet and AgroSpred adjuvants, being first in the market, are the longest-standing and
most well-known silicone brands in Agriculture. Momentive silicone adjuvants have been
successfully used for years to provide superspreading and excellent spray coverage on
many crops. These performance properties as well as very low typical use levels make
these silicone adjuvants excellent candidates to consider for use in:

Superior spreading leading to better coverage,

and reduced spray volumes

Enhanced agrochemicals efficacy

Improved uptake of active ingredients,

providing a better rainfastness
Momentive Performance Materials is continuing its long-standing innovation in
Agriculture applications with the recent development and launch of the next generation
silicone specialties.

The new Silwet HS* (hydrostable) adjuvants employ new chemistry, making these
products stable over a broad pH range, specifically developed for in-can formulations.

SAG Antifoams
Momentive SAG antifoams have demonstrated for many years their ability to
powerfully control foam during the manufacturing process of pesticides and
packaging as well as in tank mix spray applications.

The new generation of SAG antifoams can enable lower use levels, rapid
defoaming and exceptional durability and stability to provide better performance
in many Ag applications.
