A SUMMARY REPORT ON SOIL STABILIZATION BY THE USE OF CHEMICAL ADMIXTURES

THE RESULTS OF LABORATORY AND FIELD INVESTIGATIONS OF THE SOIL STABILIZING PROPERTIES ON NUMEROUS CHEMICALS ARE PRESENTED WITH RESPECT TO THEIR APPLICABILITY FOR ROAD AND AIRPORT CONSTRUCTION. LABORATORY TESTING PROCEDURES ARE DESCRIBED WHICH WERE DEVELOPED FOR EVALUATING THE VARIOUS CHEMICAL SOIL TREATMENTS STUDIED. CEMENT PROVED TO BE THE MOST GENERALLY SATISFACTORY STABILIZING AGENT INVESTIGATED. THE EFFECTIVENESS OF A NUMBER OF ADMIXTURES WITH SOIL-CEMENT ARE ALSO GIVEN. THE ADMIXTURES INCLUDED WERE: (1) BENEFICIAL - AROCLOR 1271 AND 4065, MONTAR NO 3. PICCOLYTE 125, PICCOUMARON XX-100, GOODRITE RESIN 50, STYMER SOLUTION, CRD 108, CRD 133, CRD 155, RESIN 321, STABINOL, SANTO RESIN, STEROX LF87, CALCIUM STEARATE, MAGNESIUM STEARATE, SODIUM SILICATE, CHLOROSULFONIC ACID, (2) NO IMPORTANT EFFECT - AROCLOR 1171 AND 5060, TRANSPHALT 100, MODIFIED STYRENE 480, PLAST-O-TRETE, STEARIC ACID, POTASSIUM PERMANGANTE, COPPER SULFATE, POTASSIUM DICHROMATE, (3) DETRIMENTAL - AROCLOR 1168 AND 1170, CRD 119, VINSOL, NVX, UFORMITE 552, RESINOX 9672, RESINOX 9673 PLUS HEXA, RESINOX 9671 AND 9819 AND 482, AMBERLITE PLUS HARDENER, RESIMENE M75, ANILINE-FURFURAL, VALITE, ZINC STEARATE, SODIUM OLEATE, CALCIUM CHLORIDE.
