Sun Wet Surfactant, Brewer International

Sun Wet is commonly used across the United States in aquatics, fishery, agriculture, forestry, and industrial spraying and is one of Brewer International’s most widely used adjuvants.

Step 1: Identify the spectrum of weed species that you want to control.

Step 2: Determine the best herbicide(s) that will control your weed spectrum. Read the label instructions which outline the weed species that the herbicide can control. In addition, the label will have instructions that will help you optimize weed control.

Step 3: Select an adjuvant that will help you optimize control of your weed spectrum.  Keep in mind the factors that typically must be addressed in weed control which include weed developmental stage and environmental conditions.

• Sun Wet is an activator adjuvant that can enhance the biological activity of an herbicide. 
  • Though herbicides can enter and kill a weed, depending on their active ingredient formulation, when an activator adjuvant is added, it helps the herbicide to enter the weed more readily. By including Sun Wet in your herbicide spray, you will have increased absorption and penetration rates, allowing for better weed control.
• Sun Wet is a nonionic spray adjuvant that enhances the activity of the herbicide. 
  • Nonionic surfactants are chemically inactive and mix well with most herbicides to improve control.
• Sun Wet is a 100% blend of methylated seed oil and emulsifier. 
  • Manufactured with a vegetable-based oil that has been chemically altered by attaching methanol units to the oil. Attaching methanol units alters the water-oil affinity relationship which apparently increases herbicide absorption or uptake.
  • Provides better control of weeds that are under environmental stress than other surfactants.
• Sun Wet is designed to enhance the performance of post emergent herbicides through wetting and penetration.
  • Helps the pesticide spread, adequately cover the weed leaf, and overcome barriers such as waxy and hairy leaf surfaces. 
  • Helps reduce the surface tension between the spray droplet and target surface. This allows the spray droplet to spread across the weed’s leaf surface and increases the contact area for better absorption and weed control.
