Physicochemical properties and field evaluation of monolithic wax formulations for the controlled release of a forest pest pheromone
This work shows the way to develop a monolithic device for the release of an active agent. Different waxes to prepare monolithic dispensers were used. Studies to characterize the release rate of the pheromone dispensers, and to determine many physicochemical properties of the active components and w...
