Abstract

Abstract Microemulsions are preferred over conventionally used pesticide systems for their long term thermodynamic stability, low viscosity, cost economy and aesthetic appeal. Such systems provide a method for preparing an isotropic mixture of oil and water. Neem and Karanjia isolates have proven activities. Therefore, uses of these oils provide a biologically and environmentally acceptable pesticide formulation. The present investigation deals with the systematic study to arrive at the economical composition for formulating microemulsion systems using these oils. These microemulsions, when diluted with water, formed macroemulsions which were stable over an extended period of time.
