An alternative to ENSORB®, Petroguard® is a hydrophobic product making it an optimal choice when working with oils and chemicals floating on water. Petroguard® encapsulates and absorbs rapidly which becomes important when dealing with reactive chemicals.
This absorbent has the ability to absorb hydrocarbons and petroleum products and is known for its 4:1 absorption capacity.
Key features:
Absorbs hydrocarbons faster than competing polymers
Higher absorption ratio by weight than others
Encapsulates hydrocarbons – will not release or “leach”
Permanently buoyant
Cost effective
Labor saving
Will not dissolve in water
Non-toxic
Easily collected and disposed of by incineration or landfill
Readily capable of being skimmed from the surface of water
Flammable vapors are dramatically reduced or eliminated
