Concentration of surfactant and pesticide in aqueous solution influences droplet chargeability and impaction behaviour on leaf surfaces. The phenomenon was investigated in-situ by superposition of induction charges on droplets from surfactant L-77, pesticide EC and L-77 + EC solutions. With an exception of water (control), the conductivity and chargeability of these formulations increased with concentration, whereas surface tension (gamma) decreased with an increasing concentration, which consequently minimized static contact angle (theta) on hydrophobic surfaces of Brassica campestris leaves. A reduction in gamma- and theta-values enhanced deposition and wetted area per droplet of L-77, EC and L-77 + EC formulations. The wetted area per droplet of L-77 + EC concentration increased from 9.26 mm(2) at theta-value of 65.29 degrees in 2.5 mL/L plus 7.5 mL/L to 13.29 mm(2) at theta-value of 43.1 degrees in 10 mL/L plus 15 mL/L of water. Additionally, the degree of gamma- and theta-values reduction was proportional to charged droplet sizes. For every 1 mu l, rise in droplet volume, gamma-value of L-77, EC and L-77 + EC increased by approx. 5.2, 4.6 and 3.3 mN/m respectively, whereas gamma-value reduced by approx. 28.45%, 28.24% and 27.23% respectively. The outcome of the experiment is useful for electrostatic spraying of pesticide in plant protection.
