Soil Trackifiers
Soil tackifiers are a type of “glue” created specifically for hydroseed and hydromulch. Made from both plant based products and polymeric emulsion blends, soil tackifiers keep the seed, mulch and straw of the hydroseed/mulch mich from blowing or washing away. Soil tackifiers come in several different types including:
PLANT MATERIAL BASED TACKIFIERS:
Guar - a plant based product derived from the ground endosperm of the guar plant, treated with dispersant agents for easy mixing.
Psyllium - is composed of the finely ground muciloid coating of plantago ovata seeds.
Starch - is non-ionic, cold-water soluble granular cornstarch.
POLYMERIC EMULSION BLEND TACKIFIERS
• Acrylic Copolymers and Polymers
• Liquid Polymers of Methacrylates and Acrylates
• Copolymers of Sodium Acrylates and Acrylamides
• Polyacrylamide and Copolymer of Acrylamide
• Hydrocolloid Polymers
