JY-1028 Silicone Spreading and Penetrating Agent is positioned by Juyou as a non-ionic silicone surfactant for agricultural spray systems. Before a distributor or formulator moves from a lab sample to repeated buying, the purchase file should show the actual spray-water conditions, tank-mix timing, crop surface and document requirements that will govern the trial.
The current product source states that JY-1028 can reduce the surface tension of water to below 20.5 mN/m at 0.1 percent by weight, with an appearance of colorless to light amber liquid and viscosity at 25 C of 25-50 mm2/s. Treat those values as incoming reference points, then confirm the lot COA, test method and sample age before comparing performance.
Record the spray water before judging spread
Silicone adjuvants are sensitive to real tank conditions. The JY-1028 page states a tank-mix dosage range of 0.01-0.1 percent and notes pH 6-8, with best efficacy within 24 hours after preparation. For procurement, this means the test sheet should record water hardness if available, pH after all ingredients are added, preparation time, agitation method and the time when the spray comparison is made.
Do not approve a bulk order from a single visual wetting photo. Compare JY-1028 against the buyer’s current adjuvant on the same water, nozzle, droplet size, leaf surface and pesticide system. If the formula is acidic or alkaline, ask Juyou whether buffering is required before repeating the trial.
Separate supplier checks from field efficacy
The product profile describes spreading, wetting, penetration support, improved rainfastness and pesticide absorption. Those are useful screening claims, but the buyer still needs local crop and formulation evidence. Keep field efficacy, residue, crop safety and regulatory acceptance as separate approval gates owned by the buyer or their agronomy team.
- Incoming lot: appearance, viscosity, surface-tension method, COA and document version.
- Mixing record: dose, water pH, pesticide formulation, agitation and use time.
- Application record: crop, leaf condition, nozzle, spray volume and weather window.
- Commercial record: 200 L drum or IBC need, destination, annual volume and requested TDS/SDS.
Ask Juyou for a controlled sample package
Buyers should send the crop, pesticide formulation type, water pH range, target tank dose, package size, destination market and documentation needs. Source product page: JY-1028 Silicone Spreading and Penetrating Agent.

Frequently Asked Questions
What should be checked first for a JY-1028 sample?
Check the lot appearance, COA, viscosity reference, surface-tension method and whether the buyer’s spray water stays within the intended pH range after all components are mixed.
Can the tank mix be prepared the day before use?
The product page notes best efficacy within 24 hours after preparation. For purchasing approval, record preparation time and repeat the comparison if the actual plant or field practice is longer.
Does a lower surface tension guarantee better crop performance?
No. Lower surface tension helps screen spreading behavior, but crop safety, pesticide efficacy, residue rules, rainfastness and local agronomic acceptance must be verified separately.
What information should be included in the RFQ?
Include target crop, pesticide type, water pH, dosage plan, package size, annual volume, destination market, document requirements and whether the product will be tank-mixed or built into a formulation.
