Conference Paper: Potential of surfactants for clay improvement
| Title | Potential of surfactants for clay improvement |

| Abstract | The paper presents an experimental study on the behaviour of unsaturated soils with surfactant solutions. Suction measurements by means of high suction tensiometers, compaction tests and the Atterberg limits were conducted in mixtures of sand and kaolin, with and without surfactant solutions. The results revealed a prominent effect on suction, but to a lesser extent on the Atterberg limits and compaction behavior (the maximum dry density). This research represents an exploratory study on the potential of surfactants to improve the mechanical properties of soils. |
