SYNERGEN™ GA

Synergen™ GA is an universal non-ionic wetting agent and solubilizer ENHANCED SPRAY


based on recent Clariant chemistry, the alkylglucamides. It is a sugar based DEPOSIT PROPERTIES
surfactant with a renewable carbon index (RCI) above 95% and therefore Synergen™ GA modifies the spray deposit properties of agrochemical products and allows both

in an optimal physical state, thereby enhancing considerably their bioavailability.
Synergen™ GA is a high electrolyte tolerant surfactant and can be used as a building block for the development of
customized formulations of water conditioners, salts of agrochemicals and fertilizers.
