-
Atrazine is an herbicide that does not occur naturally. Pure
atrazine is an odorless, white powder that is not very volatile,
reactive, or flammable and
that will dissolve in water.
-
It is a herbicide that selectively controls broad-leaf
(dicotyledonous) weeds such as pigweed, cocklebur, velvetleaf
and certain grass weeds in fields of maize and sorghum.
-
Atrazine is produced by a continuous process where
isopropylamine is reacted with cyanuric acid under
basic conditions, forming
2,4-dichloro-6-isopropylamino-s-triazine, which is then reacted
with
monoethylamine and dilute caustic to form atrazine.
-
The synthesis of atrazine involves the nucleophilic substitution
reactions of alkyl amines (isopropylamine and ethylamine) with
cyanuric chloride.
-
Atrazine is the most widely used herbicide in conservation
tillage systems, which are designed to prevent soil erosion.
- A
major atrazine technical exporter in the world is China, with
70% of atrazine. The supply and price of Chinese atrazine have
great impacts on the
global market. The domestic consumption grows stably.
-
Globally, atrazine is used in the production of maize, sorghum,
sugar cane, pineapples, chemical fallows, grassland, macadamia
nuts, conifers, and for industrial weed control.
-
Syngenta is the single largest producer of atrazine, accounting
for well over 60% of total sales worldwide.
-
Atrazine is widely registered around the world, including in the
US, India and China.
-
Atrazine is easily broken down, making it only slightly toxic to
aquatic life-forms such as whitefish. In whitefish, poisoning
has caused the accumulation of the product in the brain, gall
bladder, liver, and gut.
