CAS 55335-06-3: Triclopyr
Description:Triclopyr is a systemic herbicide primarily used for the control of woody plants and broadleaf weeds. It belongs to the pyridine class of chemicals and functions by mimicking the natural plant hormone auxin, leading to uncontrolled growth and eventual plant death. Triclopyr is particularly effective against invasive species and is often employed in forestry, agriculture, and land management practices. It is available in various formulations, including ester and amine forms, which influence its solubility and application methods. The substance is generally considered to have low toxicity to mammals, but it can be harmful to aquatic organisms, necessitating careful application to minimize environmental impact. Triclopyr is absorbed through foliage and roots, making it effective for both foliar and soil applications. Its persistence in the environment can vary based on factors such as soil type, temperature, and microbial activity, which can influence its degradation rate. Overall, Triclopyr is a valuable tool in integrated pest management strategies, particularly for managing unwanted vegetation.
