Seed Coating
Cellulose ethers, such as Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC) and other derivatives, are widely used in seed coating due to their versatile properties that enhance seed performance. The fucntion of cellulose ethers in seed coating are:
1. Film-forming ability
2. Biodegradability and Safety
3. Adhesion and Binding
4. Moisture Control
5. Controlled Release of Active Ingredients
6. Improved Flowability and Handling
7. Enhanced Appearance
8. Cost-effective
In general cellulose ethers are used in seed coating for their protective, biodegradable, moisture-controlling, and binding properties. They improve seed durability, performance, and handling, making them a popular choice in modern agricultural practices.
