Ionic Clay Stabilizer (ICS) for swelling clays provides a solution based on using nature of the soil itself to solve issues on a permanent basis. Instead of removing and replacing soil or adding volumes of other materials to mask the issue, treat the problem soils at the source with a cost effective and environmentally friendly solution. Don’t band-aid it, fix the problem.
Clay swells when water’s polarized positive charge is pulled into clay as it is negatively charged internally and externally. As the clay saturates the water volume causes expansion.
ICS (Ionic Clay Stabilizer) is a positively charged molecule but very small compared to water. ICS neutralizes clay’s affinity for water without adding material volume and prevents future swelling.
While treating expansive clay is most effective at the start of construction, ICS can also be used to stabilize soils beneath existing, distressed structures. For pre-construction applications, ICS may be mixed into the soil or injected using rods and pumping equipment. In remediation scenarios, ICS is injected to improve soil performance beneath existing foundations.
