Abstract
In this article, the granules based on polycaprolactone (PCL) and bentonite in the ratio of 75/25 and 50/50 were obtained as a promising carrier for long-term release of isothiocyanates (ITC). According to GC-MS and FTIR spectroscopy, it was found that concentration of ITC in granules increases with increase in clay ratio and depends on the ITC species. It is observed that the inclusion of ITC in PCL/bentonite granules increases the persistence of ITCs in the soil for up to 45 days and prevents their premature hydrolysis.
