Indoxacarb TC

Description

1. Product Overview

Indoxacarb TC is a high-purity, oxadiazine-class insecticidal active ingredient, engineered for the selective control of lepidopteran pests and key sucking insects across agricultural and public health sectors. Its primary industrial application lies in the formulation of suspension concentrates (SC), wettable powders (WP), and emulsifiable concentrates (EC) for crop protection and vector control programs. The key value proposition is its unique mode of action (sodium channel blocker) offering rapid feeding cessation, exceptional residual efficacy, and a favorable environmental profile. Strategically, Indoxacarb TC is critical for resistance management programs as a non-neonicotinoid, non-pyrethroid alternative, ensuring long-term viability in integrated pest management (IPM) systems.

2. Key Specifications & Technical Characteristics

• Chemical Composition: Indoxacarb (ISO); (S)-methyl 7-chloro-2,5-dihydro-2-[[(methoxycarbonyl)[4-(trifluoromethoxy)phenyl]amino]carbonyl]indeno[1,2-e][1,3,4]oxadiazine-4a(3H)-carboxylate

• Purity Level: ≥ 95.0% w/w (Technical Grade)

• Physical Form: White to off-white crystalline powder

• Particle Size: 98% passing through 45 µm mesh

• Bulk Density: 0.40 – 0.60 g/cm³ (untapped)

• Melting Point: 88.0 – 92.0°C

• Packaging Options: 25 kg net kraft paper bag with PE liner / 50 kg fiber drum / 500 kg jumbo bag

• Shelf Life: 3 years when stored in original unopened packaging under dry, ambient conditions (≤ 30°C)

3. Core Industrial Applications

• Primary Industries: Row crop agriculture (cotton, soybeans, corn), specialty vegetable production (tomatoes, peppers, leafy greens), tea plantations, and urban vector control.

• Operational Use Cases:

  • Cotton bollworm (Helicoverpa armigera): Applied as SC/WP formulation at 30–60 g a.i./ha, providing 14–21 days residual control.

  • Diamondback moth in crucifers: Delivers >95% mortality within 24–48 hours, outperforming avermectins due to reduced cross-resistance.

  • Public health mosquito control: Larvicidal and adulticidal activity against pyrethroid-resistant Anopheles and Aedes species.

• Performance Advantage: Rapid feeding inhibition occurs within 0–4 hours post-exposure, reducing crop damage before pest death. Its long residual activity (up to 3 weeks in field conditions) reduces spray frequency by 30–40% compared to organophosphates, delivering lower total applied cost per hectare.

4. Competitive Advantages

• Quality Consistency: Batch-to-batch purity variation < ±0.5% via HPLC-UV validated testing; each COA includes impurity profiling per FAO/WHO specifications.

• Supply Reliability: Vertically integrated production with dual-sourced raw materials and 5,000 MT annual capacity ensures uninterrupted supply even during peak seasonal demand.

• Logistics Capability: Global warehousing in Rotterdam, Houston, and Singapore enables 7-day lead times to key agro-processing hubs.

• Price Competitiveness: Achieve 12–18% cost savings versus EU-origin Indoxacarb TC, while maintaining ≥95% purity and identical biological efficacy in side-by-side field trials.

• Environmental & Technical Support: Non-PBT (Persistent, Bioaccumulative, Toxic) profile; full dossier support (MSDS, EPA/ECCO equivalence data, formulation guidance) provided with each commercial order.

5. Commercial & Supply Information

• Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ): 20 MT (20 metric tons) per product grade per shipment

• Loading Capacity: 20 MT per standard 20-foot dry container (24–25 MT per 20′ FCL with optimized palletization)
