Description
Piperonyl butoxide (PBO) is a water insoluble colorless to pale
yellow liquid that was developed in the 1940s to increase the
effectiveness of various pesticides. It is currently registered as an
active ingredient in more than 1500 products used for indoor
or outdoor pesticides, including agricultural maintenance of
some food crops.
-
Uses
Piperonyl butoxide is used as a synergist for pyrethrins and their
synthetic analogues. Insecticide synergist, especially for pyrethroids and rotenone PBO is a pesticide synergist. It is typically added to carbamate,
pyrethrin, pyrethroid, and rotenone pesticides to greatly
enhance their potency. PBO alone does not have pesticidal
properties.
