Pheromones are in use for biotechnical plant protection. The problem of homogeneous and timely distribution of pheromones in the agricultural field can be provided by electrospun nanofiber nonwovens with encapsulated pheromones, which are released on demand. Electrospinning of dispersions of water insoluble, biodegradable polymers by Green Electrospinning is a sustainable approach to the application of of nanofiber nonwovens in biotechnical plant protection. This contribution discusses the preparation of formulations resulting in pheromone containing nanofiber nonwovens by Green Electrospinnning and their application profiles.
