AGNIQUE AMD 810 is a mixed C8/C10 fatty amide solvent that acts as an efficient carrier for hydrophobic active ingredients in crop protection formulations.

AGNIQUE AMD 810 is useful in emulsifiable concentrate systems because it helps balance solubility, handling ease, and formulation stability.

AGNIQUE AMD 810 provides a practical solvent option for agrochemical products that require low-viscosity processing, oil-phase compatibility, and reliable dispersion behavior.

AGNIQUE AMD 810 is based on fatty acid dimethylamide chemistry and is typically an excellent solvent for pesticide formulations.

AGNIQUE AMD 810 is a liquid C8/C10 N,N-dimethyl amide solvent used mainly in agrochemical formulation systems.

AGNIQUE AMD 810 as a C8/10 N,N-dimethyl amide with ≥98% concentration, liquid form at 23 °C, and viscosity below 10 mPa·s.

AGNIQUE AMD 810 is used as a hydrophobic solvent in EC formulations, where it can support penetration and help dissolve hydrophobic active ingredients.

Chemically, AGNIQUE AMD 810 is associated with N,N-dimethyloctanamide and N,N-dimethyldecanamide, also described as capryl/caprin acid dimethylamide.

Uses of AGNIQUE AMD 810:

AGNIQUE AMD 810 is an excellent and versatile solvent for the formulation of pesticides.

Carrying only an Xi irritant label, AGNIQUE AMD 810 provides a green and safe alternative to conventional solvents such as NMP, DMF, cyclohexanone and also in most cases Xylene.

AGNIQUE AMD 810's low water solubility and crystal inhibition properties offer additional benefits when formulating and optimising plant protection ECs and emulsions.
