Description A starch urea formaldehyde (starch-UF) matrix has been studied for application to the encapsulation of a solid insecticide. The pertinent parameters relating to the matrix synthesis have been identified and the influences of these parameters on release of the insecticide from the starch UF matrix have been investigated. The key parameter controlling the rate of release is the urea to starch ratio. It is shown that the release process can be described in terms of the generalized equation M(t)/M(infinity) - kt(n) where k and n vary with system variables.
