“Terfasn 7yc@Bond Bases are conventionally stabilized by Cold In-place Recycling (CIPR) and Full Depth Reclamation (FDR). Soils are also treated with Cement, Lime, Bitumen emulsion or foamed Bitumen. © Poor Flexibility © ‘Swell under wet conditions i © Inconsistent Densities © Loss of strength due to Wet & Dry Cycles (Carbonation & ASR) © Terrasil is a water soluble, UV and heat stable, reactive soil modifier to reduce swelling. Spray of Terrasil solution waterproofs ‘compacted sol surface up to 10 mm depth © ZycoBondisa UVandheat stable, cross-linkable soil modifier. It is anano sized acrylic co-polymer dispersion in water. Itcomplements conventional stabilization methods by imparting water resistance and flexible bonding othe Soil Improved flexibility with strong bonding © ZycoBond, the new generation nano polymer (particle size < 0 nm), atts typical dosage perm’ of sollhas almost the same number of polymer particles as sol particles. © This leads to higher number of contact point for flexible bonding, which improves the fatigue resistance of cement and lime stabilized soils jher Compaction and Consistent Densities c Siloxane Long Polymer Chains © Terrasil chemically converts water absorbing silanol groups to water resistant alkyl siloxane surfaces at ambient temperature. a ‘© Nano layer of alkyl siloxane chains on the soil particles provides charge shielding to reduce the repelling effect between soil particles and gives better lubrication for compaction. © With Terrasil & ZycoBond, field densities of Proctor 100 to 105 are consistently achieved (Wot 0 ale) Reduced Swell Potential © Terrasil restricts swelling to < 5 % for expansive soils. The resultant lower swelling pressure substantially reduces undulations and cracking. Reduced Permeability © Surface waterproofing with Terrasil & ZyooBond ensures reduction in permeability to the tune of 10" to10°cm/second up to a depth of 10 mm. (This means water will require ‘minimum 100 days to travel through this 10 mm barrier) © This layeris breathable, asit does not allow water to get in, butallows vapor to escape. ‘As a result, even if some water enters the soil base, it eventually evaporates and ‘escapes through the breathable waterproofed|ayer. © This prevents capillary rise at the base and water ingress from the top, keeping the bases dry throughout all seasons. The net result will be a stabilized soil base which is flexible with higher density, low swelling pressure and water resistant, resulting in improved durability.DOSAGE & APPLICATION Spray Terrasi | ZycoBond Working Direction IN-SITU: For soils with CBR >4, in-situ treatment can be done.
