Abstract
⺠Herbicide photodegradation studies using ethylcellulose-microencapsulated formulations (ECF) in soil and water. ⺠Greater herbicide photo-protection observed from EFC than from its commercial form. ⺠Photo-protective effect due to the gradual herbicide release and the presence of ethylcellulose. ⺠Herbicide photo-stability conditioned by soil colloidal components, especially by goethite and humic acids. ⺠EFC could reduce the field herbicide losses by photolysis.
