APPLICATIONS

Copper Oxychloride is used for the control of fungal and bacterial diseases in fruit and vegetable crops, citrus, stone fruit, pome fruit and ornamentals.

Copper Oxychloride is insoluble H2O; soluble acids, ammonia.
Copper Oxychloride can be used on fruit, vegetables and ornamentals

Copper Oxychloride controls leaf curl, leaf spots, blights, downy mildew and black spot.
Further, Copper Oxychloride is easy to mix.
Copper Oxychloride is used for the control of certain fungal diseases of fruit trees, vegetables and ornamentals in the home garden.

Generally, Copper Oxychloride is used for the production of semi-dormant sprays for the control of leaf curl, freckle brown rot, black spot and a number of other fungal diseases on stone fruit  such as tomatoes, citrus, grapes and some ornamentals.

Copper Oxychloride is used as a fungicide.
Sometimes, Copper Oxychloride is used on listed vegetables, ornamentals, and fruit trees to kill Anthracnose, Blight, Fire blight, and Peach leaf curl.

With the elp of products involving Copper Oxychloride, lead and other heavy metals are reduced by removing copper joiners from the production process.

Copper Oxychloride reduces the amount of copper chloride in the end product.
More to that, Copper Oxychloride effectively inhibits and prevents the activity and growth of fungus and bacteria on plants

DESCRIPTION

Copper Oxychloride is widely used for copper fungicide.
Further, Copper Oxychloride has a low aqueous solubility and a low volatility.

As a heavy metal, copper itself will not degrade in the environment.
It is moderately toxic to mammals and most biodiversity.

Copper Oxychloride is generally immediately available in most volumes.
High purity, submicron and nanopowder forms of Copper Oxychloride may be considered.

Copper oxychloride is a fungicide that controls a wide range of fungal and bacterial diseases on fruit, vegetables and ornamentals protecting the plant.

Copper Oxychloride should be kept well stirred.
Through spray coverage of all foliage, buds and stems is necessary for good disease control.

FIRST AID

If Copper Oxychloride gets into the eyes, remove any contact lenses at once and irrigate immediately for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting upper and lower lids.
Seek Medical attention immediately.

If Copper Oxychloride contacts the skin, remove contaminated clothing and wash immediately with soap and water. Seek medical attention immediately.

If Copper Oxychloride has been inhaled, remove from exposure, begin rescue breathing (using universal precautions) if breathing has stopped, and CPR if heart action has stopped.
Transfer promptly to a medical facility.

When Copper Oxychloride has been swallowed, get medical attention.
Give large quantities of water and induce vomiting.
Do not make an unconscious person vomit

HANDLING AND STORAGE

Provide adequate ventilation for the storage of Copper Oxychloride.
Avoid prolonged exposure.

Do not taste or swallow Copper Oxychloride.

When using Copper Oxychloride, do not eat, drink or smoke.
Wear appropriate personal protective equipment.

Wash hands thoroughly after handling Copper Oxychloride.
Avoid release of Copper Oxychloride to the environment.

Observe good industrial hygiene practices.
Store Copper Oxychloride in original tightly closed container.

Store Copper Oxychloride away from incompatible materials.
