• Negative charges are in majority at the flat surfaces of a particlea particle
• Positive charges in lower t ticoncentration are more
common at the edges or irregular surfaces
4. Polymer vs. soil condition24
Interaction of PolyMud® to Soil
Due to the high concentration of negative charges within the soil particles the binding of the soil to the the
l t i ipolymer matrix is conveniently achieved through the positive chargescharges.
Water molecules release is avoided. Thisaffinity allows for the soil to be filled withseveral polymer filaments preventing itsf ifragmentation.

There are no specific requirements on ground water. Numerous types of groundwater are faced throughout excavations.
POLYMER VS GROUND WATER
No free water available
G3 System is tolerant to water intrusionsy
Water with Acid pH have to adjusted at ph >6
Polymer absorbs water and keeps it
Bentonite has free water and cake is permeable whichallows for aggressive water to disrupt bentonite

Removal and disposalREMOVAL
G3 polymers need not to be to removed from site
REMOVAL
After a simple and fast treatment G3 polymers can be disposed on site
Disposal procedure (30min):
1. Correct pH to 6 – 9 with hydrochloric acid (HCl)
DISPOSAL
1. Correct pH to 6 9 with hydrochloric acid (HCl)
2. Break the polymer chain with Calcium Hypochlorite
After the treatment the polymer is ready to be disposed on thei t ith t i k ( it i il)environment without any risk (city sewage, rivers, on soil)
