Comparison table
Feature |
Conventional Mineral Standards |
SunGuard |
| Ease of use | Require frequent cleaning and easily clog equipment. Unstable mixture. | No clogging, low maintenance, no constant agitation required. |
| Application uniformity | Uneven, discontinuous coverage. | Homogeneous film. Maximum uniformity in coverage. |
| Effectiveness | High volumes required. | Effective at low doses. |
| Residues on fruit and leaves | Visible white stains, difficult to remove. | Minimal residues, easy post-harvest cleaning. |
| Effect on photosynthesis (Conventional mineral standards) | Thick layer blocks beneficial light, reduces photosynthesis, and creates uneven shading. | Mineral particles block harmful radiation while transmitting photosynthetically active light, improving crop productivity. |
