  • Applications

    Mecoprop-P (CAS 16484-77-8) is the propylene glycol ester of mecoprop and is used primarily as a selective herbicide to control broadleaf weeds in cereals and forage crops; it is also employed in turfgrass and lawn management, ornamental horticulture and nurseries, and consumer and professional lawn-care formulations, typically in mixes with another herbicide (such as dicamba or 2,4-D) to broaden the spectrum of control.
