  RTX-88 RTX-300 Projects FAQ Additional Products Enquiry
 
RTX-88 is a totally new product, the result of years of research & development and promises to improve existing rural, low-cost road construction.
 

RTX-88 can be used...

  • as a sealer on existing road bases
  • for full base stabilization
  • or in combination with RTX-300 to construct strong, weatherproofed, sealed roads at VERY LOW COST.

A unique liquid soil stabilizer, applied using standard road equipment and suitable for virtually all soil types.

 

RTX-88 contains powerful copolymers, developed to penetrate and create a hard, resilient surface by cementing loose material of the road base into a tight bond. When properly applied, RTX-88 will harden to remain dust free, moisture resistant and will enhance surface anti-skid qualities.  Unlike competitors’ products, RTX-88 also provides a strong barrier against the effects of a freeze-thaw cycle.

RTX-88 is unique in that it has strong chains of polymer molecules that are cross-linked into grid like patterns which may range up to 1,000,000 molecules long. Compare this to the weaker molecular makeup of commercial sealers, calcium chloride, petroleum resins, and asphalt emulsion products that commonly chain only 100 to 10,000 molecules. As a result, RTX-88 is stronger and more flexible, providing a superior bond with lasting strength.
 
 

RTX-88’s MANY USES AND BENEFITS

 

NEW AND RENOVATED ROADS:

  • Seals Roads
  • Controls Dust and Erosion
  • Full Depth Base Stabilization
  • Increases Load Bearing Strength of all  types of soils
  • Additive for Cold in-place Reclaiming of old Asphalt and Seal Coat Roads
  • “Fog-Sealing” as a Primer on Base Courses before Paving, Instead of Cutback Asphalt

AIRFIELDS:

  • Increases Traction and Resistance to Shift
  • Reduces Prop-wash Damage from Loose Gravel and Surface Materials

PARKING LOTS:

  • Elastic Qualities to Prevent Break-Up and Sinks by Resisting Gravitational Moisture

STORAGE PILES, ASH AND TAILINGS:

  • Conserves Against Product Loss
  • Protects Against Moisture and Freezing
  • Prevents Oxidation and Pile Fires

PONDS – LANDFILLS – RESERVOIRS:

  • Flexible and Strong Liners Reduce Permeability

EMBANKMENTS:

  • Dries Clear and Prevents Erosion

SEEDING:

  • Hydro-seeding, an Alternative to Dust and Erosion
 
RTX-88 leaves all other sealers behind. Tread marks indicate the dust-free, hard bond that RTX-88 provides on unpaved roads

RTX-88 penetrates and binds loose Aggregate to the base to form a solid, water resistant, marble-like finish, hard enough to sustain skid marks.

 
 

RTX-88 IS SAFE AND AN AID TO THE ENVIRONMENT

 
  1. RTX-88 is a blend of environmentally safe copolymers, which will not harm people, plants, animals, air, or water.
  2. RTX-88 does not pollute ground water or disturb vegetation and contains NO alkali, acids, enzymes or chlorides.
