Seperating 2 surfactants from glyphosate??
« on: June 07, 2009, 01:07:28 PM »
How could I possibly separate the two surfactants in an herbicide product Killzall from the active ingredient, glyphosate, better known as roundup. Any simple processes?

What if I just boil it? The surfactants will evaporate before the glyphosate right?

Hello Qaiphyx,

It depends.

What is the boiling point of the surfactant(s)?

Sincerely,

Eugene
