Cellulose Ester Dispersion To minimize the deleterious impacts of agrochemicals and polymer carriers, in article number 2108046, Charles H. Opperman, Saad A. Khan, and co‐workers design aqueous dispersions of biodegradable polymers with tunable morphology. These green formulations show controlled release, fast spread, and impressive resistance to washing off from rain when used in foliar applications.
