Abstract
A Field Technique for Making Epoxy Relief-Peels in Sandy Sediments Saturated with Saltwater: NOTES
John A. Burger, George De Vries Klein, John E. Sanders (3)
ABSTRACT
A quick-setting epoxy mixture is available that enables relief-peels to be made in the field for revealing primary sedimentary structures in sandy sediments. The mixture consists of five parts each of CIBA Epoxy #6005 and CIBA Epoxy #6010, three parts of CIBA Hardener #850, and one part of CIBA Hardener #830. Polymerization generally occurs within 1
hours and is not inhibited by either freshwater or saltwater. All additional four hours is required for curing. Depth of impregnation is controlled by sediment texture, sorting, and permeability. Moisture and low temperatures inhibit polymerization; the method is not recommended for temperatures below 45°F.
