DESCRIPTION:
Iron Soil is an environmentally friendly, biodegradable, liquid polymer used to stabilize and solidify any soil or aggregate and an excellent dust suppressant. Once Iron Soil is applied, the high solid base formula causes polymer molecules to coalesce and form bonds between the soil or aggregate particles. It produces long molecular chains, which cross-link together forming a flexible solid mass that is durable and water resistant. Modest application rates are useful for dust suppression and erosion control by creating a three-dimensional cap or surface crust, which also makes it great for use on slopes, coal piles, ash ponds, and aggregate piles. Heavier application rates can generate qualities like Portland soil cement, useful for soil solidification and stabilization found in road building, drilling pads, and equipment yards. Whatever your needs, Iron Soil application rates can be customized to achieve the results you desire.
GREEN FACTS AND BENEFITS:
- Eco-friendly and 100% biodegradable
- No hazardous chemicals, Non-Flammable, and Non-Corrosive
- Dilutes with water
- Safe for use in and around sensitive habitats
- All HMIS codes of 0 or 1
- No phosphates, No EDTA, APE or NPE compounds
- Does not leach any restricted chemicals into groundwater or soil
- No carcinogens or mutagens
- Superior cohesion and elasticity provide long-lasting performance
APPLICATION (SEE APPLICATION PROCEDURES):
Iron Soil is extremely versatile and exhibits outstanding performance in the areas of pile sealing, soil retention, freeze-thaw resistance, general surface appearance, and water resistance, especially when waterproofing and surface sealing applications. Iron Soil can be used in conjunction with our Aggrehold stabilization product to produce superior cohesion and elasticity on slopes, berms, and piles.
Iron Soil is typically applied topically to the surface at an initial rate of 0.004-20.0 percent solution covering between 35 to 2,200 ft² for dust suppression or blended in at a rate of .25 gallons per square yard for stabilization. Maintenance coats are normally applied at 30% of the initial application rate. By adjusting the application rate, Iron Soil can remain effective from weeks to several years.
Please see our Application Procedures Sheet for full dilution rates and procedures for the following types of applications: Pile Sealing, Ash Pond Sealing, Dust Control, and Soil Stabilization.
