Chlorantraniliprole 18.5% SC (often confused with or similar to commercial listings mentioning cyantraniliprole/chlorantraniliprole) is a broad-spectrum, systemic anthranilic diamide insecticide used to control caterpillars and borers in various crops. [1, 2]
(Note: While some trade listings loosely cross-reference names like [Cyantraniliprole 18.5% SC](https://www.shaktichemical.com/cyantraniliprole-18-5-sc-consider--12036022.html), the 18.5% SC formulation widely standardizes Chlorantraniliprole, famously sold as FMC Coragen.) [1, 2, 3, 4]
