Ethephon, organic compounds, pure white needle-shaped crystals, industrial products for the light brown liquid, soluble in water, methanol, acetone, ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, slightly soluble in toluene, insoluble in petroleum ether. For agricultural plant growth stimulants.
Ethephon is a high quality and efficient plant growth regulator, with the promotion of fruit maturation, stimulate injury, and other effects of gender transfer.

chemical properties:

Crystalline solid, melting point 74 ℃ ~ 75 ℃, boiling point of about 265 ℃ (decomposition), density 1. 409 ± 0.02g / cm3 (20 ℃, the original drug). Water solubility of about lkg / L (23 ℃), soluble in ethanol, methanol, isopropanol, acetone, ethyl acetate and other polar organic solvents, slightly soluble in nonpolar organic solvents such as benzene, toluene, insoluble in kerosene, Diesel. Stable in aqueous solution at pH <3.5 and hydrolyzed to release ethylene as pH increases. Sensitive to ultraviolet light, stable below 75 ℃.

Mechanism:

Ethephon and ethylene are the same, mainly to enhance the ability of RNA synthesis in cells, and promote protein synthesis. In the plant standoff zone such as petiole, stalk, petal base, due to increased protein synthesis, prompting the de-layering of cellulase to resynthesize, because accelerates the formation of layers, resulting in organ shedding. Ethephon can enhance the activity of the enzyme, and can also activate phosphatase and other enzymes that are mature with the fruit when the fruit matures to promote the fruit ripening. In aging or susceptible plants, changes in peroxidase are caused by ethephon, which promotes protein synthesis. Ethylene can inhibit the synthesis of endogenous auxin, slow plant growth.

The main Uses:

Ethephon is a plant growth regulator with phytohormones that enhances the secretion of emulsions, accelerates the physiological effects of maturation, shedding, senescence and flowering. Under certain conditions, ethephon not only releases ethylene on its own, but it also induces plants to produce ethylene.

For agricultural plant growth stimulants. Ethylene (ethylene phosphorus) is a high quality and efficient plant growth regulator, a molecule of ethephon can release a molecule of ethylene, with the promotion of fruit ripening, stimulate injury, regulate gender conversion and other effects.

1. Promote female flower differentiation
2. To promote fruit maturity
3. To promote plant dwarfism
4. Break the plant to sleep
