Product Description
Alpha-Cypermethrin 100 g/L SC Insecticide
AVERSTAR Alpha-Cypermethrin 100 g/L SC is a suspension concentrate insecticide containing 100 grams of alpha-cypermethrin per litre. Alpha-cypermethrin is a synthetic pyrethroid with contact and stomach activity against susceptible insect pests. It belongs to the type II pyrethroids and acts on the insect nervous system. Product use must match the crops, pests and application conditions approved on the local registration label. extranet.who.int
The SC formulation consists of fine active ingredient particles suspended in an aqueous carrier. It is designed for dilution with water before application. Proper shaking, mixing and agitation help maintain a uniform suspension and consistent delivery during spraying.
For importers and distributors, evaluation should cover both active ingredient content and formulation performance. A complete purchasing specification should identify the required concentration, physical quality parameters, packaging, destination market and supporting documentation.
Product Identity and Technical Data

|---|---|
| Product name | Alpha-Cypermethrin 100 g/L SC |
| Brand | AVERSTAR |
| Active ingredient | Alpha-cypermethrin |
| Nominal concentration | 100 g/L |
| Equivalent concentration | 10% w/v |
| Formulation | SC — Suspension Concentrate |
| Product category | Insecticide |
| Chemical family | Synthetic pyrethroid |
| CAS number | 67375-30-8 |
| Molecular formula | C₂₂H₁₉Cl₂NO₃ |
| Molecular weight | 416.3 g/mol |
| CIPAC number | 454 |
| IRAC mode-of-action group | 3A |
| Mode of action | Sodium channel modulation |
| Main activity | Contact and stomach action |
Chemical identity is supported by FAO and PubChem; the mode-of-action classification follows IRAC. Molecular formula and molecular weight describe the active ingredient, not the complete formulated product. fao.org
How Alpha-Cypermethrin Works
Alpha-cypermethrin disrupts voltage-gated sodium channel function in insects. This interferes with normal nerve signalling and can cause hyperexcitation, paralysis and death in susceptible pests. Exposure occurs through direct contact and ingestion. extranet.who.int
IRAC classifies alpha-cypermethrin in Group 3A. Resistance-management programmes should therefore consider the mode-of-action group of rotation partners. Switching to another Group 3A pyrethroid does not constitute rotation to a different mode of action. Pest monitoring and locally appropriate resistance-management guidance should inform treatment decisions. Insecticide Resistance Action Committee ...
Understanding the 100 g/L Concentration
A concentration of 100 g/L means that each litre of formulated product contains a nominal 100 grams of alpha-cypermethrin.
| Product volume | Nominal active ingredient content |
|---|---|
| 100 mL | 10 g |
| 250 mL | 25 g |
| 500 mL | 50 g |
| 1 L | 100 g |
| 5 L | 500 g |
| 20 L | 2,000 g |
These figures are concentration calculations, not application recommendations.
The equivalent concentration is 10% w/v, meaning 10 grams per 100 mL. Conversion to a mass percentage requires the measured density of the formulation:
Active ingredient % w/w = 10 ÷ density in kg/L
For example, if the measured density were 1.05 kg/L, the concentration would be approximately 9.52% w/w. This example does not establish the density of AVERSTAR’s product.
SC Formulation Quality: Reference Parameters
The following values are reference criteria from the FAO January 2013 alpha-cypermethrin SC specification. They are not AVERSTAR batch test results or evidence of FAO approval.
| Quality parameter | Published SC reference criterion |
|---|---|
| pH of 1% aqueous dispersion | 5–8 |
| Suspensibility | At least 60% after 30 minutes in CIPAC standard water D at 30 ± 2°C |
| Wet sieve residue | Maximum 2% retained on a 75 μm sieve |
| Persistent foam | Maximum 60 mL after 1 minute |
| Low-temperature stability | 0 ± 2°C for 7 days; continued compliance with specified suspension and sieve criteria |
| Accelerated storage stability | 54 ± 2°C for 14 days |
| Active ingredient retention after accelerated storage | At least 95% of the measured initial content; other specified physical criteria must also be met |
These historical reference criteria can help structure a purchasing specification. The applicable specification and actual batch compliance must be confirmed with the manufacturer. fao.org
Application and Handling
The approved product label must determine the target crop or use site, target pest, application rate, water volume, treatment interval, maximum number of applications, pre-harvest interval and re-entry interval. A universal dose cannot be established from the concentration alone.
Shake or mix the product as instructed before measuring. Follow the label’s dilution sequence and agitation requirements. Verify compatibility before using any permitted tank mixture.
Use the protective equipment specified on the label and safety data sheet. Prevent spray drift and contamination of waterways. An available manufacturer SDS for an alpha-cypermethrin 100 SC formulation identifies serious aquatic hazards; the exact classification of the supplied product must be taken from its own SDS. agromec-international.com
Packaging and OEM Enquiries
For a packaging quotation, specify the required container size, total volume, label language and destination country. Sizes such as 100 mL, 250 mL, 500 mL, 1 L, 5 L and 20 L can be discussed as purchasing requirements, subject to supplier confirmation.
Private-label enquiries should include artwork requirements, registration holder details and any destination-specific packaging rules. Container material, closure performance and packaging compatibility should be confirmed before an order is finalised.
Documentation and Purchasing
Before purchase, request the current product specification, batch Certificate of Analysis, Safety Data Sheet and proposed label. Confirm the availability of registration-support documents separately for the destination market.
Pricing and minimum order quantity depend on order volume, packaging, artwork, testing requirements and delivery terms. Contact AVERSTAR with your destination country, quantity and packaging requirements for a product-specific quotation.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is Alpha-Cypermethrin 100 g/L SC the same as 10% SC?
It is equivalent to 10% w/v. A claim of 10% w/w requires density-based verification.
2. What does SC mean?
SC means suspension concentrate: solid active ingredient particles dispersed in a liquid carrier.
3. Can one application rate be used for every crop?
No. Rates and restrictions must follow the approved label for the specific crop, pest and country.
4. Does accelerated storage testing prove a two-year shelf life?
No. Shelf life must be supported by the manufacturer’s relevant stability data and stated storage conditions.
