Abstract
Abstract The present invention relates to a containerization system comprising at least one inner cold water soluble bag located within an outer cold water soluble bag. Each cold water soluble bag independently contains an agrochemical that does not substantially dissolve the bag, or bags, which it contacts. Typical agrochemicals are in solid, substantially non-aqueous liquid, or organic gel form. The inner bag contains an agrochemicals such as plant protection compounds, pesticides, fungicides, insecticides, acaricides, nematocides, herbicides, plant nutrients or plant growth regulators. The outer bag contains agrochemicals such as penetrating agents, synergists, antidotes, sticking agents, spreaders, plasticizers.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
105 words
A containerization system which comprises at least one inner cold water soluble bag containing an agrochemical selected in the group comprising plant protection agents, pesticides, insecticides, herbicides, fungicides, nematocides, acaricides, plant nutrients, plant growth regulators, the containerization system further comprising an outer cold water soluble bag containing another hazardous compound different from the first and selected in the group comprising activity promoters, penetrating agents, synergists, antidotes, sticking agents, spreaders, activators, compatibility agents, adjuvants for the cold water soluble bags, plasticizers, the outer bag also containing the inner bag with its content wherein the inner bag sinks and the outer bag floats when put into water.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
105 words
A containerization system which comprises at least one inner cold water soluble bag containing an agrochemical selected in the group comprising plant protection agents, pesticides, insecticides, herbicides, fungicides, nematocides, acaricides, plant nutrients, plant growth regulators, the containerization system further comprising an outer cold water soluble bag containing another hazardous compound different from the first and selected in the group comprising activity promoters, penetrating agents, synergists, antidotes, sticking agents, spreaders, activators, compatibility agents, adjuvants for the cold water soluble bags, plasticizers, the outer bag also containing the inner bag with its content wherein the inner bag sinks and the outer bag floats when put into water.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
140 words
A containerization system which comprises at least one inner cold water soluble bag containing an agrochemical selected in the group comprising plant protection agents, pesticides, insecticides, herbicides, fungicides, nematocides, acaricides, plant nutrients, plant growth regulators, the containerization system further comprising an outer cold water soluble bag containing another hazardous compound different from the first and selected in the group comprising activity promoters, penetrating agents, synergists, antidotes, sticking agents, spreaders, activators, compatibility agents, adjuvants for the cold water soluble bags, plasticizers, the outer bag also containing the inner bag with its contents, wherein the agrochemicals and the wall of the bags they contact are chosen so that the agrochemicals do not substantially dissolve the wall of the bag they contact and do not substantially permeate through it wherein the inner bag sinks and the outer bag floats when put into water.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
140 words
A containerization system which comprises at least one inner cold water soluble bag containing an agrochemical selected in the group comprising plant protection agents, pesticides, insecticides, herbicides, fungicides, nematocides, acaricides, plant nutrients, plant growth regulators, the containerization system further comprising an outer cold water soluble bag containing another hazardous compound different from the first and selected in the group comprising activity promoters, penetrating agents, synergists, antidotes, sticking agents, spreaders, activators, compatibility agents, adjuvants for the cold water soluble bags, plasticizers, the outer bag also containing the inner bag with its contents, wherein the agrochemicals and the wall of the bags they contact are chosen so that the agrochemicals do not substantially dissolve the wall of the bag they contact and do not substantially permeate through it wherein the inner bag sinks and the outer bag floats when put into water.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
109 words
A containerization system which comprises at least one inner cold water soluble bag containing an agrochemical selected in the group comprising plant protection agents, pesticides, insecticides, herbicides, fungicides, nematocides, acaricides, plant nutrients, plant growth regulators, the containerization system further comprising an outer cold water soluble bag containing another hazardous compound different from the first and incompatible with it and selected in the group comprising activity promoters, penetrating agents, synergists, antidotes, sticking agents, spreaders, activators, compatibility agents, adjuvants for the cold water soluble bags, plasticizers, the outer bag also containing the inner bag with its content wherein the inner bag sinks and the outer bag floats when put into water.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
109 words
A containerization system which comprises at least one inner cold water soluble bag containing an agrochemical selected in the group comprising plant protection agents, pesticides, insecticides, herbicides, fungicides, nematocides, acaricides, plant nutrients, plant growth regulators, the containerization system further comprising an outer cold water soluble bag containing another hazardous compound different from the first and incompatible with it and selected in the group comprising activity promoters, penetrating agents, synergists, antidotes, sticking agents, spreaders, activators, compatibility agents, adjuvants for the cold water soluble bags, plasticizers, the outer bag also containing the inner bag with its content wherein the inner bag sinks and the outer bag floats when put into water.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
142 words
A containerization system which comprises at least one inner cold water soluble bag containing an agrochemical selected in the group comprising plant protection agents, pesticides, insecticides, herbicides, fungicides, nematocides, acaricides, plant growth regulators, the containerization system further comprising an outer cold water soluble bag containing another hazardous compound different from the first and incompatible with it and selected in the group comprising activity promoters, penetrating agents, synergists, antidotes, sticking agents, spreaders, activators, compatibility agents, adjuvants for the cold water soluble bags, plasticizers, the outer bag also containing the inner bag with its content, wherein the agrochemicals and the wall of the bags they contact are chosen so that the agrochemicals do not substantially dissolve the wall of the bag they contact and do not substantially permeate through it wherein the inner bag sinks and the outer bag floats when put into water.
Claim 8
