A facile route to fabricate a biodegradable hydrogel for controlled pesticide release

Abstract

Avermectins are widely used to control weeds, insects, and plant diseases. We have prepared a controllable avermectin release system based on a hydrazone bond inducing hydrogel, which presents good release properties of avermectin triggered by temperature and pH stimuli. This strategy embarks on controllable pesticide release using an environmentally friendly hydrogel.
