Poly VX(P)

DESCRIPTION:

AT-POLY VX (P) is a unique anionic polymer developed for application as earth stabilizer slurry. It offers a multitude of advancements and improvements over conventional mineral based slurry technology (Bentonite).It is of high molecular weight, long chain synthetic polymer containing numerous negatively charged sites distributed across their backbones. It is a non-toxic chemical compound. AT-POLY VX (P) is a quality anionic polymer with the below mentioned advantages:

  • Environment – friendly and safe.
  • Harmless to aquatic organism, wild life and human life
  • Non- combustible
  • Bio-degradable

ADVANTAGES:

  • AT-POLY VX (P) provides the following beneficial properties
    • Small quantity required
    • Controls fluid loss in sand and gravels
    • Increases safe load capacity of pile through higher skin friction compared to bentonite
    • Facilitates in quick settlement of fines coming out with bored soil and maintains clear fluid
    • Doesn’t change pH of soil
    • Does not affect concrete to reinforcement bonding
    • Improves productivity of machines & manpower by reducing the cleaning of machineries
    • Requires less mixing time, reducing cost, job site congestions and fuel cost
    • Doesn’t lose its effectiveness even when mixed with bentonite
    • Reduces disposal hazards and cost
    • Reduces storage area requirement and hence cost
    • It is not only environmentally safe compared to bentonite, it creates a dust-free and sticky mud-free environment in the site and readily bio-degradable
    • Lubricates excavating tools, lessens friction and wears

BROAD APPLICATIONS OF AT-POLY VX (P):

  • Can be used in areas that contain high amount of fine silt, clay, colloidal soils, to establish stability of slope
  • It is used to stabilize bore holes of piles, trenches, diaphragm walls
  • Can be used to stabilize low height vertical shoring and embankments

HOW IT WORKS:

AT- POLY VX (P) Polymer is mixed with fresh water. On mixing its long polymer chain uncoils and creates viscous slurry. This uncoiling creates a strong bond that cohesively binds the excavated soil solids & facilitates their removal from excavation. On the other hand, through mixing with the surrounding turbid water, the dissolved polymer attaches them to soil particles & forms a bond which binds the soil and polymer particles into a larger mass. It leads to rapid settlement of suspended sediments from the water column and lastly with its long string creates a thin impervious barrier on the surface of the formation hole. As the water dissipates from the soil or aggregate, a durable water resistant matrix of flexible solid mass is created.

DOSAGE:

  • 0.1% – 0.5% by weight of water depending upon the site requirement.

GENERAL GUIDELINE FOR USE OF POLY VX (P): It is advisable to conduct advanced survey on the construction site’s soil structure and state of distribution prior to formal implementation and have adequate stabilizer liquid materials and mixing ratio ready. The above guidelines are provided from past experiences.

HEALTH & SAFETY:

  • Protect hands with rubber gloves and eyes with goggles.
  • Accidental splashes to the skin or eyes must be rinsed immediately with clean water.
  • Store in well-labeled containers.
  • If required get medical attention.
