Research Project About Oil Absorbents
(New Brunswick, New Jersey)
I'm doing a research project about the BP oil spill and look into what chemical properties are found in oil absorbents that allow them to absorb oil.
I have few questions regarding absorbents. Are the absorbents you sell made of polypropylene?
Yes, absorbents are made of polypropylene fabric.
The absorbents have a great surface area of the fiber, ability to float, mainly because of the entrapped air.
For poly prop, the floating / slightly sinking effect has a lot to do with the fiber condition.
The ability is to be an "oil only" absorbent.
