Chemical Stabilization
Chemical stabilization involves adding specific substances to soil or material to improve its strength and durability. This process alters the chemical properties of the material, reducing its permeability, increasing its resistance to erosion, and enhancing load-bearing capacity. Common stabilizers include cement, lime, or other chemicals that react with the existing material, creating a more stable and hard surface. It is often used in construction and environmental projects to transform unstable or problematic soils into reliable foundations, helping to prevent settling, cracking, or failure over time.
