Acrylate Gels
Acrylate gels are widely used in today‘s tunnel construction and dam building mainly due to their low viscosity and good elastic properties.
In fact, acrylate systems also penetrate fine-particle, non-cohesivetypes of soil and solidify these while preserving acertain ductility of the stabilized areas at the same time.
Excellent adhesive properties combined with an adjustable reaction time are prerequisites for sealing damaged foil and membranes in tunneling and dam building. Acrylate gels are also used in the microtunneling sector.
