What is a Polyurethane? Formed by the reaction of a polyisocyanate and a polyol When polyisocyanate reacts with water it joins with another polyisocyanate and releases carbon dioxide causing expansion. When polyisocyanate reacts with water it joins with another polyisocyanate and releases carbon dioxide causing expansion. Can be supplied as SINGLE or TWO part formulations.
Characteristics of Polyurethane? Excellent Adhesion Outstanding hydrolytic Wide range of formulation capability and chemical resistance Adjustable reactivity Little to no odor during and after application Easy to apply or install
SOIL STABILIZATION GOLF BUNKERS
Polystone 40 The Permanent Bunker Solution to Australia! Developed in the USA, first used in 1997 for golf course bunkers, Polystone® can eliminate the need for you to replace fabric liners ever again! Poly-Tech now brings this fantastic product to the Australian Market.
GENERAL CONCEPT A low viscosity, single-component polyurethane is applied to the bunker where it reacts and binds the soil particles to increase strength and eliminate instability.
Basic Approach 1. Remove Sand from Bunker; Cut, Shape & Smooth Bunker as Desired
2. Spread 10mm of fresh sand into the bunker without covering the drains
3. Spray apply with a simple water pump, garden hose & spray nozzle
4. Allow Polystone® to cure for 24 hours; add New Sand to Bunker
