MasterRoc ACP 143
Anti-clay soil conditioning polymer for tunnel boring machines (TBM)
How does MasterRoc ACP 143 work?
MasterRoc ACP 143 is a liquid polymer, specially designed for highly cohesive and adhesive soils such as marl, silts, and clays that contain fine particles.
Recommended uses:
Creates a stable foam and can be used with the standard foam generators installed on Earth Pressure Balance (EPB) machines.
Designed to reduce the clogging and adhesion potential of clayey soils.
Can be injected at the cutterhead, into the working chamber, or onto the screw conveyor.
