The product is Factory Supply Imazalil CAS 35554 - 44 - 0 with the best price. Imazalil is a widely - used fungicide. Its Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) number is 35554 - 44 - 0. Chemically, it belongs to the imidazole family of fungicides. It has a molecular formula of C₁₄H₁₅Cl₂N₃O and a molecular weight of approximately 328.19 g/mol. Imazalil exists as a white to pale - yellow crystalline powder. It is sparingly soluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as methanol, acetone, and chloroform. The melting point of imazalil ranges from 52 - 55 °C.
Imazalil is primarily used as a fungicide in the agricultural and horticultural sectors. In the fruit industry, it is commonly used to control post - harvest diseases of citrus fruits, bananas, and mangoes. It can prevent the growth of fungi such as Penicillium digitatum and Penicillium italicum, which are the main causes of green and blue mold on citrus fruits respectively. This helps to extend the shelf - life of the fruits and maintain their quality during storage and transportation. In the horticultural field, imazalil can be used to treat ornamental plants, protecting them from fungal infections that may damage their appearance and health. Additionally, it can be used in the treatment of some storage diseases in vegetables.
When using imazalil for post - harvest treatment of fruits, it is usually applied as a dip, spray, or a coating. For dipping, the fruits are submerged in an imazalil solution for a specific period, typically 1 - 5 minutes, depending on the type of fruit and the severity of the potential fungal infection. The concentration of the imazalil solution should be carefully controlled according to the product instructions. When using it as a spray, the solution is evenly sprayed onto the surface of the fruits using a suitable spraying device. For coating applications, imazalil is incorporated into a coating material, which is then applied to the fruits. It is important to wear appropriate protective equipment, such as gloves and masks, during the application process to avoid direct contact with the chemical.
In a large - scale citrus orchard in Florida, USA, the grower was facing significant losses due to green and blue mold infections on citrus fruits during storage. After applying imazalil as a post - harvest dip treatment, the incidence of mold infection decreased by more than 80%. The fruits were stored for an additional 4 - 6 weeks without significant quality degradation, which led to a substantial increase in the marketable yield. In another case, a banana plantation in Ecuador was dealing with crown rot, a common fungal disease in bananas. By using imazalil in a coating formulation, the plantation was able to reduce the occurrence of crown rot by up to 75%. This not only improved the quality of the exported bananas but also enhanced the plantation's reputation in the international market.
