Abstract

A treatment for soils and road base materials including applying to the soil or road base materials an organosilicon waterproofing agent, and applying to the soil or road base material a soil stabilizer binder including an acrylate ester polymer emulsion.

Claims (20)

1. A composition for chemical improvement of soil and road base materials comprising:

an organosilicon waterproofing agent; and

a soil stabilizer binder including an acrylate ester polymer emulsion.

2. The composition of claim 1 in which said organosilicon waterproofing agent includes a trialkoxysilane.

3. The composition of claim 1 in which said organosilicon waterproofing agent includes an organosiliconate.

4. The composition of claim 3 in which said organosiliconate includes an alkyl siliconate.

5. The composition of claim 1 in which said soil stabilizer binder includes a styrene/acrylate ester polymer emulsion.

6. The composition of claim 1 where said waterproofing agent is added to the substrate at concentrations in the range of 0.1 to 5.0 percent by weight.

7. The composition of claim 1 where said polymer emulsion is added to the substrate in the concentration range of 0.5 to 5.0 percent polymer solids by weight.

8. The composition of claim 1 further including aluminosilicate added to the soil or road base material in the concentration range 1.0 to 10.0 percent by weight.

9. The composition of claim 1 where the soil or road base materials include clayey soil, where the clay content ranges from 1% to 100%.

10. A composition for chemical improvement of soil and road base materials comprising:

an organosilicon waterproofing agent; and

a soil stabilizer binder including a water insoluble acrylate ester polymer emulsion.

11. A composition for chemical improvement of soil and road base materials comprising:

an organo silicon waterproofing agent; and

a soil stabilizer binder including an acrylate ester polymer emulsion, said acrylate ester including a functional group comprising —C(O)—OR, where R=C 1 to C 16 .

12. The composition of claim 1 in which the composition is a liquid.

13. The composition of claim 10 in which the composition is a liquid.

14. The composition of claim 11 in which the composition is a liquid.
