Polymer - Self- Cleaning, much easier to mix and -Polymer slurries should not
(Synthetic) even be mixed in the shaft. been used in
very permeable soils where
the cake would not have time
to form. In soils without fines
it can be necessary to add a
few kg of bentonite per m3 as
an additive .
In all cases a polymer slurry
should be checked like a
bentonite slurry.
- Much Cleaner to work with, no residual
muddy mess around the pile.
- Disposal is much easier cause can simply
broken down with an oxidizer e.g. calcium
hypochlorite.
- Clay inhibitor, prevent swelling and
sticking of clay.
- quickly broken down when in contact with
cement’s high alkalinity and calcium
content.
