What is pHase5?pHase5 is an adjuvant designed to adjust pH in water so that maximum efficacy of foliar sprays can be realized. pHase5 will acidify all alkaline waters as well as neutralize the dissolved salts present in hard waters. Mixing pHase5 into your spray solution requires no lab tests or guesswork. pHase5 turns the solution pink when the optimum pH has been achieved. Acidifying Action pHase5 is added to the spray solution before pesticides are mixed in. Most pesticides work best in acidic conditions. pHase5 reduces the pH in your spray water, overcoming the tendency of dissolved salts to resist pH change. Built-in pH Indicator pHase5 is the only adjuvant with a patented built-in pH indicator. When the optimum pH of 4.5 - 5.5 is reached, the spray solution will change to pink or red (depending on water hardness). pHase5 eliminates the need for cumbersome pH testing – all you need to do is check the color of your spray solution. If you cannot see into your spray tank, you can easily determine how much pHase5 you need by mixing a small amount of solution in a calibrated bottle and then adding pHase5 to your spray tank in the same proportion. Alkaline and Hard Spray Water Can Sabotage Your Spray Efforts The two most important factors affecting spray water quality are pH and water hardness. The Effect of pH The efficacy of many pesticides is adversely affected by exposure to alkaline spray water (high pH) through the degradation process known as alkaline hydrolysis.
