Insufficient moisture retention in plant growth substrates leads to rapid desiccation and poor nutrient delivery. Improving water holding capacity prevents plant stress and ensures the stability of applied herbicidal treatments.

Active ingredients in non-aqueous or concentrated liquid states frequently suffer from phase separation, sedimentation, or clumping during storage. Preventing these degradation modes ensures consistent dosage delivery and extended shelf life.

Chemical antagonism and physical separation occur when mixing herbicides with fertilizers or other active ingredients. Preventing precipitation or reduced bio-efficacy ensures uniform application and predictable weed control.

Active ingredients often fail to reach or penetrate target pests effectively due to environmental barriers. Improving delivery efficiency ensures lethal doses are achieved with lower chemical volumes.
