What are the differences between the AA, HO and HS Series Polymers?

Smart-Bond Polymer Encapsulating Absorbent  for Organic Hydrocarbons -HO Series:

• Turns Hazardous Fluids into Non-Hazardous Solids.
• Encapsulates, Stabilizes and Solidifies ORGANIC HYDROCARBONS
• Smart-Bond polymer absorbent has the ability to bond with organic diesel fuel, gasoline, motor oils, waste oils and most liquid organic hydrocarbons to form a solid mass. The encapsulating process between the liquid hydrocarbon and the polymer begins immediately on contact. This bonding, encapsulation and solidification can be accomplished on hard surfaces and in water, producing a solid and manageable waste product that will not drip. The hardened waste product usually appears within 10 to 15 minutes after application.

• Absorbs more than 75% of the industries competitive products.

• Simplifies fluid spill pickup - available in convenient pads, booms, bilge socks and bulk granular.

• Cleans up fast with no sweeping on most spills - no more mess.

• Totally effective and cost efficient - resulting in the elimination of hazardous fees.

• Suppress vapors and reduce off gassing by 80% within the first five minutes. The gases/vapors are trapped, eliminating spontaneous or accidental combustion - eliminates all hazards.

• Completely hydrophobic and will float even after maximum encapsulation.

• Unused polymers can be recaptured and reused.

 

Smart-Bond Polymer Encapsulating Absorbent  for Synthetic Hydrocarbons - HS Series:

• Turns Hazardous Fluids into Non-Hazardous Solids.
• Encapsulates, Stabilizes and Solidifies SYNTHETIC  HYDROCARBONS
• Smart-Bond polymer absorbent has the ability to bond with synthetic motor oils, brake fluids, transmission fluids and most liquid synthetic hydrocarbons to form a solid mass. The encapsulating process between the liquid hydrocarbon and the polymer begins immediately on contact. This bonding, encapsulation and solidification can be accomplished on hard surfaces and in water, producing a solid and manageable waste product that will not drip. The hardened waste product usually appears within 10 to 15 minutes after application.

Smart-Bond Polymer Encapsulating Absorbent for Aqueous Liquids & Water Soluble Hydrocarbons - AA Series:

• Turns Hazardous Fluids into Non-Hazardous Solids.
• Encapsulates, Stabilizes and Solidifies AQUEOUS  HYDROCARBONS
• Smart-Bond polymer encapsulates aqueous liquids and water soluble hydrocarbons, such as engine coolant, cutting fluids, blood, waste effluents, and other aqueous solutions. It has the ability to solidify and stabilize hazardous liquids, using a very small amounts of polymer. It has a typical absorption rate of up to 300 times its own weight in neutral water. Smart-Bond Aqueous absorbent is heavier than water and will sink to absorb from the bottom up. It will also absorb water from organic or synthetic hydrocarbons, removing the water from the hydrocarbons - excellent for use in oil and gas storage tanks or where water seepage is an issue.

• The absorbed liquid/s will form a jelly-like substance. All water will be released at various rates of evaporation, based upon ambient temperature and humidity, leaving a hard diamond like granular texture that can be disposed of safely.

• Totally effective and cost efficient - generated mass through evaporation yields a tremendous reduction in the amount of waste disposed of with no hazardous fees.

• Will not absorb any free hydrocarbons, but will absorb virtually all hydrocarbons that are dissolved in a water phase.

• Fast acting and safe - encapsulation, stabilization, immobilization and solidification begin immediately upon contact between the polymer and the aqueous solution.

• Will absorb heavy metals and other dissolved solids that may be in liquid - available in convenient booms, bilge socks and bulk granular.

• Extremely effective in mixing with all types of sludge’s for the stabilization of liquids contained within the sludge.
