Description

Paraquat dichloride is organic in nature and is a chloride salt of paraquat. Paraquat dichloride also known as 1, 1- dimethyl-4, 4’-bipyridinium is classified as a viologen, which is a family of redox – active heterocyclic’s of similar structures. Paraquat dichloride is majorly used as a non-selective and quick acting herbicide, which kills plant tissues directly on contact. However, it seeps into ground water and contaminate it, thereby reducing the quality of drinking water. It is extremely phototoxic and hence Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommended that the use of this chemical be stopped. Globally, increasing agricultural activities, growing demand for herbicides in order to get rid of unwanted plants and weeds, and increasing government initiative across the globe are the prime growth drivers of global paraquat dichloride market. In addition, increase in adoption of paraquat dichloride in emerging economies such as China, India and others, will create new opportunities for global paraquat dichloride market. However, higher cost of the research and development, hazardous to human health, and stringent government environmental regulations are the key restraints for global paraquat dichloride market.

• Be used only by a certified applicator. Unlike most other restricted-use products, paraquat may not be used by persons working under the supervision of a certified applicator.
• Never be transferred to a food, drink or any other container. New packaging requirements will help to prevent this from occurring.
• Always be kept secured to prevent access by children and/or other unauthorized persons.

Human Health

Paraquat is highly toxic. One small sip can be fatal and there is no antidote. Illegally transferring paraquat to beverage containers and later mistaking it for a drink has resulted in the accidental ingestion of the pesticide and causes approximately 1-2 deaths per year. New packaging requirements and other risk mitigation measures required by EPA in 2016 and implemented between 2017 and 2020, are expected to minimize the illegal transfer of paraquat to beverage containers. Incidents also suggest that paraquat is corrosive to the skin and eyes.
