EarthStop 240 Series
A Soil Specific Emulsion Agent to Prevent Soil Erosion
EarthStop 240’s effectiveness is created from the length and ionic charge resulting in a unique polymer molecule formulation and those polymer molecules’ ability to bond with the surface materials. Its chemical structure is made of molecules attached in relatively straight-linked chains and then cross-linked among other chains or grids that maybe up to 25,000,000 molecules long.
