Composition and method for dust control

摘要

This invention relates to a combination of anionic and non-ionic polymers and surfactants useful for the control of dust emissions into the environment. More specifically, the invention relates to novel compositions and the use of said compositions in treating particulate matter which comprises an aqueous solution of water soluble polymers comprising a unique mixture of water soluble acrylic polymers in combination with water soluble non-ionic glycol polymers in an aqueous medium containing effective amounts of anionic surfactants such as sulfonates and nonionic cosurfactants.
