Reduction in Plasticity Index:<\/strong>\u00a0The liquid ionic soil stabilizer was found to reduce the plasticity index (PI) of expansive soil. The PI showed no consistent change with lower dosages but decreased significantly with the addition of more stabilizer, achieving a 45% reduction.<\/p>

Changes in Soil Density and Moisture Content:<\/strong>\u00a0The maximum dry density of stabilized soil decreased, and the optimum moisture content increased. These changes may be attributed to soil modification, possibly influenced by cation exchange capacity.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Improved Soil Strength:<\/strong>\u00a0Stabilized soil specimens exhibited higher strength compared to untreated soil. While the recommended dosage and diluted dosages caused some reduction in soil strength, an increase in the stabilizer\u2019s concentration resulted in up to a 165% increase in strength after 28 days of curing.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Reduced Swell Potential:<\/strong>\u00a0Treated soil samples demonstrated a significant reduction in swell potential, particularly with a third ratio of the stabilizer, which achieved an 83% decrease in swell potential after 28 days of curing.<\/p>

Effect of Curing Time:<\/strong>\u00a0The study found that there was no significant change in swell potential after 28 days of curing compared to one day of curing.<\/p>

Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC):<\/strong>\u00a0Low additive dosages in soil resulted in a relatively small cation exchange capacity. This led to treated soil having a lower potential to swell.<\/p>

pH Levels:<\/strong>\u00a0Soil specimens with low additive dosages had higher pH levels. However, adding more stabilizer caused a significant reduction in the pH of the soil.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

These findings<\/a>\u00a0suggest that the use of our ProChem Soil Stabilizer can effectively modify the properties of expansive soils, reducing their swell potential and enhancing their strength. The specific dosage and treatment conditions can be tailored to achieve the desired soil stabilization results.<\/p>
