Randomized trial demonstrates improved insecticidal efficacy in Hyphantria cunea, suggesting better pest control methods.

The aim is to enhance the delivery and efficacy of chlorantraniliprole against Hyphantria cunea using modified nanocarriers.
Developed tannic acid-modified mesoporous silica nanoparticles loaded with chlorantraniliprole.
Evaluated the retention and efficacy of the formulation on various plant surfaces.
Conducted sublethal studies on enzyme activity related to detoxification and antioxidant responses.
TA@CAP@MSN demonstrated an LC50 of 2.130 mg/L against third-instar H. cunea, a 3.66-fold increase over technical CAP.
Sprayed formulation achieved 62.33% larval mortality at 120 h on Populus × euramericana.
Significantly higher mortalities observed after simulated rainfall compared to pure CAP and CAP@MSN.
