- Application Rates
Rates vary according to the conditions of the soils, crops, water supplies, and whether water is from rainfall or irrigation and the quantities and frequencies of watering. General guidelines are: 2-3 kg/m³ in mixed to substrates consisting of sand, peat and compost; 50-100 g/m² in broadcasting, 25-50 kg/hectare.
- Safety and Health
Dry polymer spills should be left dry and swept up at once. Spills of polymer are slippery. Precautions should be taken to prevent them from entering lakes or streams. Polymer can be disposed of according to local regulations or treated with an absorbent material, then collected for subsequent legal disposal. Tramfloc® 1001B has been shown to exhibit a low order of toxicity. Nevertheless, precaution should be taken to prevent inhalation, ingestion or contact with skin or eyes. Observing basic industrial hygiene precautions should prevent any health or safety hazards.
