Aquatrols CapSil is a nonionic spray adjuvant containing an organosilicone surfactant for water-based foliar spray programs. It helps improve wetting and spreading on leaf surfaces when used with compatible spray products according to their labels. Supplied in a 1-gallon (3.78 L) container for professional or industrial use.

Product details

• Nonionic spray adjuvant containing an organosilicone surfactant.
• Principal functioning agents: 20% polyether modified heptamethyltrisiloxane and 80% oxirane, methyl-polymer with oxirane, mono-2-propenyl ether.
• For labeled applications with compatible herbicides, micronutrients, insecticides/miticides, fungicides, and foliar feeds.
• Not a plant food ingredient or fertilizer substitute.

Label application rates

Follow the pesticide or active ingredient label's surfactant recommendations first. Where that label gives no recommendation and does not prohibit a surfactant, the CapSil label provides the following trial rates:

• Herbicides and/or micronutrients: 6–16 fl oz per 100 gallons of spray solution.
• Insecticides/miticides, fungicides, and/or foliar feed: the label specifies 6–12 fl oz per 100 gallons of mix for water-soluble fertilizers.
• Cuttings, such as poinsettia: 4–8 fl oz per 100 gallons, approximately ¼–½ teaspoon per gallon, as described on the label.

These are application-specific label ranges, not a universal rate for every crop or tank mix. Read the complete label for use sites, precautions, and directions.

Tank mixing

1. Fill the tank ⅔–¾ full of water. If foaming is anticipated, add an anti-foaming agent before pesticides and/or CapSil. Perform a jar test before tank mixing.
2. Add the pesticide as directed by its label.
3. Continue agitation.
4. Add CapSil, then finish filling the tank while maintaining agitation.
