APPLICATIONS

RT 9528 is used in a broad range of solid-liquid separation processes for settling, thickening, clarifying and dewatering. Industries using Rantec 9528 and other Rantec polymers include potash, trona, gold and silver, phosphate, sand and gravel. It can be used alone or in conjunction with inorganic coagulant, polyamines or polydadmacs.

RT9528 should be made down in fresh water and allowed to completely hydrate prior to use. Typical make-down is at 0.1 to 0.3%. Use high shear mixing only to disperse the powder, then mix gently to avoid shear breakdown.

STORAGE & HANDLING

RT 9528 should be stored in a dry, cool warehouse protected from damage to packaging.
