Properties
Pure glyphosate is a colorless, odorless, crystalline solid with a melting point of 185 °C and decomposes at 187 °C, producing toxic fumes including nitrogen oxides and phosphorus oxides. It is slightly soluble in water (12 g/liter at 25 °C), and is practically insoluble in most organic solvents.
Applications
Glyphosate is a broad-spectrum, non-selective systemic herbicide. It is useful on essentially all annual and perennial plants including grasses, sedges, broad-leaved weeds and woody plants. It can be used on non-cropland and among a great variety of crops. The most common uses include control of broadleaf weeds and grasses in: hay/pasture, soybeans, field corn; ornamentals, lawns, turf, forest plantings, greenhouses, rights-of-way.
