    Terrasil is a nanotechnology soil modifier that can waterproof and increase the strength of road bases and slopes. It is mixed with SX 100 nano silicone emulsion or Zycobond acrylic co-polymer emulsion and sprayed onto compacted soils in two application cycles. This treatment reduces soil permeability while maintaining vapor permeability, retains soil strength when wet, and controls erosion. Terrasil can be used to waterproof soils for roads, construction sites, landfills, and other infrastructure.

    BREATHABLE SOIL WATERPROOFING OF ROAD BASES & SLOPES

    Terrasil nanotechnology is water-soluble, UV and heat stable, reactive soil modifier with the ability to retain strength
    of road bases and resistance to deformation.

    SX 100 nano silicone emulsion extends Zycobond acrylic co-polymer emulsion bonds the soil
    performance of Terrasil upto 100%. It is mixed with particles to resist soil erosion in side shoulders and
    Terrasil solution and sprayed on compacted soils. slopes. It is mixed with Terrasil solution for one step
    waterproofing and bonding of compacted soils.
