Methylated Seed Oil Spray Adjuvant
Drexel MES-100 is a professional-grade methylated seed oil MSO spray adjuvant designed for use with many post-emergent herbicide applications. This modified vegetable oil concentrate helps support herbicide performance by improving spray coverage and leaf penetration, making it a strong choice for agricultural, turf, and vegetation-management spray programs where an MSO adjuvant is recommended.
Formulated with methylated seed oil and alkylphenol ethoxylate as 100% principal functioning agents, MES-100 can often be used in place of non-ionic surfactants or petroleum-based crop oils in approved post-emergence herbicide tank mixes. Always confirm compatibility and rate requirements on the herbicide label before use.
