Formulation Development and Performance Characterization of Ecological Dust Suppressant for Road Surfaces in Cities

In order to solve the problem of road dust pollution, an ecological dust suppressant for road surfaces has been developed using monomer, orthogonal, and optimization experiments and based on the dust raising mechanism. A humectant, hygroscopic agent, coagulant and surfactant and their concentration...
