Reactor

Reactor is a water conditioner that both acidifies and softens spray water.

The performance of some agrochemicals and foliar applied fertilisers is impeded when mixed in water which is either Alkaline, Hard, Brackish, or contaminated with insoluble deposits. Many farms are forced to use sources of water which are either of high pH (over 7.0) or are hard, containing significant levels of Calcium, Magnesium or Bicarbonate ions.

Many pesticides are prone to alkaline hydrolysis (not only Glyphosate) , but often it is the combined effect of hard water with alkaline pH that compromises the performance of pesticide applications; insecticides, plant growth regulators, herbicides and fungicides.

Reactor is the insurance policy that ensures pesticides are not impeded by water quality. In many situations, the extremely powerful buffering action of Reactor will make it the product of choice for preserving a set pH level in nutrient solutions and cleansing solutions with greater persistence than alternative materials.
