Diquat dibromide monohydrate (Cat No.:R007488) is a chemical compound commonly used as a non-selective herbicide and desiccant in agriculture and industrial applications. It acts by disrupting photosynthesis in plants, leading to their rapid drying and eventual death. Diquat dibromide monohydrate is effective against a wide range of weeds and aquatic plants, making it valuable for controlling unwanted vegetation in various settings, such as ponds, lakes, and agricultural fields. While it is a powerful herbicide, its non-selective nature means that it can harm desirable plants if not applied with care.
