Mechanism of Action
Moisture Absorption: Under high relative humidity, mineral mulch absorbs moisture, and Under drier conditions, it reduces evaporation and helps retain soil moisture.
Dust Control and Soil Stabilization: By Keeping the soil surface moist it enhances surface cohesion and minimizes particle dispersion of particles caused by wind or vehicle movement.
Improved Durability of Unpaved Roads: Sustained moisture prevents the formation of ruts and bumps on dirt roads, thereby lowering maintenance costs.
Applications of Mineral Mulch
Agriculture and Horticulture: Retaining soil moisture and preventing erosion.
Unpaved Roads and Access: Dust reduction, prevention of potholes and ruts
Mining and Construction Sites: Dust suppression and stabilization of delete dunes
Desertification Control: Containment of shifting sands and desert expansion
Benefits of Using Mineral Mulch
Long-Lasting Performance: Slow absorption and high durability, unlike petroleum-based mulches.
Water Conservation: Reduces surface evaporation and retains soil moisture.
Weed Control: full soil coverage to prevent weed growth.
Reduced Road Maintenance Costs: Minimizes the need for frequent repairs and enhances the condition of unpaved roads.
Pest and Disease Resistance: Does not attract insects or fungi, unlike organic mulches.
Eco-Friendly: Free from chemical additives and safe for environmentally sensitive areas.
Mineral Mulch Usage Guideline
To achieve optimal performance, apply a 3 to 5 cm layer of mineral mulch evenly over the soil surface. This amount may vary depending on climate conditions and the intended application.
