Polymer Enhanced Soft Armoring
Polymer enhanced soft armoring is a temporary to permanent stabilization and erosion control method that uses a soft pliable matting such as jute, coir, coconut, hemp or burlap in conjunction with 700 Series Silt Stop® powder or 600 Series Silt Stop® emulsion. Silt Stop polymer binds soil, metals, nutrients, and microbes together. This complex also attaches to the matting creating a highly erosion resistant surface that will support vegetation along with aiding in improved runoff clarity by preventing soil mobilization in stormwater.
Temporary Stabilization
600 Series Silt Stop® and 700 Series Silt Stop® polymers are most effective and long lasting when applied with other BMPs. However, temporary stabilization of stockpiles and bare soil on slopes is often needed. In these cases, site-tested 700 Series and 600 Series Silt Stop® polymers can be applied over exposed soil and slopes. This application will temporarily hold the soil particles together to prevent soil loss, control erosion, and improve runoff quality.
Enhanced Vegetation Establishment
Using 600 Series Silt Stop® emulsions and 700 Series Silt Stop® powders when seeding and establishing vegetation can improve outcomes in germination, vegetation quality, and growth. Anionic polyacrylamide polymers such as those used in APS Silt Stop® have long been promoted by the United States Department of Agriculture to improve crop yield by decreasing erosion, improving soil structure, increasing water infiltration, and keeping beneficial microbes and nutrients in place. Give your vegetation a boost with APS 600 and 700 Series Silt Stop®!
Hydraulic Erosion Control
APS 600 Series Silt Stop® emulsions and 700 Series Silt Stop® powders control erosion, improve runoff clarity, decrease airborne dust, and improve vegetation. When used in conjunction with hydraulic seed and mulch applications, these benefits are realized in addition to improving mulch and seed binding.
Dust Control
APS 600 Series Silt Stop® emulsions and 700 Series Silt Stop® powders are designed to agglomerate and bind very fine particulates. This mechanism has been shown to reduce airborne dust from haul roads, waste dumps, tailings piles, and open areas on construction sites. Duration between watering will vary with weather and road conditions. The use of APS Silt Stop® products is intended to reduce the amount of airborne dust by increasing soil particle size, binding soil particles together, and decreasing the amount of water applications required to control fugitive dust.
