Which formulation requires mixing with dry inert carriers before application if it contains high percentages of active ingredients?

  1. Granules

  2. Dusts

  3. Aerosols

  4. Pellets

The correct answer is: Dusts

Dusts require mixing with dry inert carriers before application if they contain high percentages of active ingredients. This is because dusts are made up of very fine particles that can be easily dispersed in air. In order to prevent uneven distribution of these particles and achieve proper coverage, they need to be mixed evenly with inert carriers before application. Granules and pellets do not require mixing as they are larger and heavier particles that can be easily distributed. Aerosols do not require mixing as they are already dispersed in a liquid or gas form.
