Sand reinforced polyester composites (SPCs), are building materials with sand acting as reinforcement in the composite.Pioneers in using sand reinforced composites include German business men Gerhard Dust and Gunther Plötner, who made sand reinforced composite bricks with polyester resin and hardener to provide emergency relief housing for those affected by the 2010 earthquake in Haiti.
Synthetic polymers began replacing other chemical binders for soil stabilization in agriculture in the late 20th century. [1] Compared to traditional chemical binders, polymer soil additives can achieve the same amount of strengthening at much lower concentrations – for example, mixtures of 0.5-1% of various biopolymers have strength levels that match or exceed those of 10% cement mixtures ...

The first flotation-type applicator produced by Ag-Chem was the Ag-Gator 804. This model was also the first design to allow the operator to apply either a liquid or a dry product. This model featured front-wheel drive and an optional 150 HP gasoline-powered or 155 HP diesel power plant.
Polyacrylic acid is a weak anionic polyelectrolyte, whose degree of ionisation is dependent on solution pH. In its non-ionised form at low pHs, PAA may associate with various non-ionic polymers (such as polyethylene oxide, poly-N-vinyl pyrrolidone, polyacrylamide, and some cellulose ethers) and form hydrogen-bonded interpolymer complexes.

Larger sand grains can be used to overcome this problem, but if significant amounts of large solids are in the feed they need to be removed upstream of the sand bed filter by a process such as settling. [5]: 302–303 The depth of the sand bed is recommended to be around 0.6–1.8 m (2–6 ft) regardless of the application.
