Dust
Control on Crushed Rock Roads
OxyChem’s Liquidow™ Calcium
Chloride and Cargill’s
Dust-Off© Magnesium Chloride are environmentally
safe, cost effective, and extremely reliable products in controlling fugitive dust
that is generated by vehicle traffic on crushed road roads.
How Does Each Product
Work?
Both Calcium Chloride and Magnesium Chloride are hygroscopic by nature. This means
they have the capability to attract moisture from the environment.
This unique quality keeps treated areas damp acting as a “magnetic trap”
to keep dust particles in the road and not in the air. In addition to controlling
dust, calcium and magnesium chloride stabilize the road bed creating a smooth riding
road that is less expensive to maintain.
