Abstract
Abstract A fungicide composition particularly effective for the control of leafspot and dollarspot comprising a mixture in granular form of (a) a phthalonitrile of the formula ##SPC1## Wherein each X is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, chlorine, fluorine and bromine with at least one X being other than hydrogen, (b) for each 1275 grams of the phthalonitrile, from about 200 to 1800 ml of octyl phenoxy polyethoxy ethanol having 9 to 10 oxyethylene groups, and (c) a carrier to which the fungicide is adhered, the carrier having a bulk density of at least 20 lbs. per cubic foot.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
61 words
A fungicidal composition in granular form comprising a mixture of (a) tetrachloroisophthalonitrile, (b) for each 1275 grams of the phthalonitrile, from about 200 to 1800 ml of octyl phenoxy polyethoxy ethanol having 9 to 10 oxyethylene groups, and (c) a carrier to which the fungicide is adhered, said carrier having a bulk density of at least 20 lbs. per cu. ft.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
