Stored Product Protection
PHOSTOXIN R.T. 333
DEGESCH PHOSTOXIN (3 g) contain 56-57% aluminium phosphide as the active substance and 43-44% inert components that facilitate controlled outgassing of phosphine. The outgassing of the tablets begins after a brief delay once the fumigation product comes into contact with product or ambient moisture. The outgassing rate depends on the temperature and humidity levels.
All developmental stages of stored product pests can be controlled with phosphine. The highly potent gas penetrates nearly all packaging materials and densely packed stored products. Since phosphine reacts with noble metals such as silver, gold, copper and their compounds, these substances must be provided with sufficient protection from fumigation.
Fields of application:
Use of tablets is not restricted to certain storage types as long as the storage unit can be made appropriately gas-tight. They are used in silos, on ships, in warehouses, etc. and can be placed in the product to be treated manually or using the Detia Degesch dosing device.
Safety:
Phosphine is also highly toxic to humans and warm-blooded animals. It is therefore absolutely necessary to comply with the relevant safety measures. To raise the level of safety when the tablets and pellets are applied, special components have been included in the formulation to delay outgassing. The safety of Detia Degesch fumigants is further optimized by the simplicity of their application. Packages of products containing phosphine may only be opened outdoors. Detia Degesch tablets and pellets may only be used by trained personnel or under their supervision.
