Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents a study of the chemical and physical properties of arsenicals, their uses, and their effects when combined with other substances. During the early 1900s, arsenicals were widely employed for pest control. The author presents data on the chemical analysis of more than 60 samples of arsenicals and insecticidal mixtures, primarily lead and calcium arsenates. Findings reveal that the majority of commercial samples of these arsenicals conformed to accepted standards of composition, providing a basis for their quality control. Moreover, an exploration of the physical properties of arsenicals, such as their particle size and adhesion to plant surfaces, was conducted. This examination contributes to the understanding of the factors affecting the effectiveness of arsenical sprays. Furthermore, the book provides detailed information on the chemical changes that occur when arsenicals are combined with other substances such as lime-sulfur, Bordeaux mixture, and nicotine sulfate. This knowledge is critical to avoid incompatible mixtures that may reduce their effectiveness or cause damage to plants. Overall, this book offers valuable insights into the properties and use of arsenicals, cementing its significance in the history of pest control practices. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
