Investigation into Xanthan Gum Biopolymer on Mitigating Cracking and Erosion Behavior of Soil
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The soil on the slope may experience more severe erosion as a result of the surface cracks caused by desiccation. Xanthan gum (XG) was introduced to reduce the soil’s tendency to erode and crack in order to increase the ...
Investigation into Mechanical Behavior of Air-Hardening Organic Polymer-Stabilized Silty Sand
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Air-hardening organic polymer (AHOP), a new soil stabilizer, can form a cross-link among soil particles with high strength and toughness. In this study, the effect of the polymer content and density on the mechanical ...
