Compatibility agents are additives used in tank mixtures to prevent adverse reactions, like clumping, separation, or reduced effectiveness, when mixing different agrochemicals/pesticides/nutritional products.

Incompatible mixtures can:

• Damage crops
• Reduce efficacy of active ingredients
• Clog nozzles and sprayers
• Cause separation or layering in the tank

They should be used when:

• Mixing multiple crop protection products
• Adding foliar nutrients to sprays
• Combining fertilizers with pesticides
• There’s uncertainty about physical or chemical compatibility
• Dry flowable, suspension concentrates, and other non-liquid concentrate formulations are mixed
• Low carrier volumes are used
• Water is not the major carrier of the spray volume
• Carrier volume is below 60°F
• High-speed mixing or inductor systems are utilized
• Spray volume is not immediately sprayed
• Poor agitation exists in the application process

They work by:

• Stabilizing the mixture
• Altering pH
• Preventing negative chemical reactions
• Enhancing solubility
• Dispersing particles uniformly

Conduct a jar test:

• Mix small amounts of products at appropriate rates and observe
• Watch for clumping, layering, gelling, or settling out of particles
• Add the compatibility agent to see if it resolves issues

No. Some products are inherently incompatible, and no agent can make them safe to mix. Always check manufacturer recommendations.

Generally, no, not if they are used correctly.
Some precautions should be taken with certain crops and growth stages. Many compatibility agents contain NPE surfactants, which may cause crop response in corn at specific growth stages. Choosing a compatibility agent without NPE surfactants provides greater crop safety during these sensitive timings.

No. These products are not formulated for agricultural use and can cause unexpected reactions or crop damage.

Mix-All Elite is an advanced, fast, and effective compatibility agent formulated to remove the inconvenience caused by incompatibility issues in a spray solution.

Mix All Elite is formulated to stabilize mixtures that would otherwise separate due to differences in pH, density, solubility, or salt content.

Use it when:

• Mixing multiple agrochemicals with poor physical compatibility
• Unknown or high-risk combinations are involved
• You observe issues like separation or uneven mixing in a jar test
• Alkaline pH is an issue

No. Mix-All Elite is NPE-free. It is comprised of a proprietary blend of emulsifiers, phosphate ester surfactants, and wetting agents.

The exact dosage typically depends on the total volume, quality of water, and specific tank mix partners. Refer to the product label or “Resources” section for dosages and instructions. Generally, 1 pint/100 gallons is recommended in applications where water is the primary carrier and applications are >10 gpa. Generally, 1 quart/100 gallon is recommended when water is not the primary carrier and/or applications are <10 gpa.
