Texas ProChemical serves commercial and industrial firms, land developers and individual homeowners and Home Developers. More and more, specifications are changing to incorporate electro-chemical injection as a cost and time-saving alternative to stabilizing expansive clay soils. Advantages Fast! Large areas (up to 30,000 sq. ft. treatable in a single day). Economical! Product and installation cost are a fraction of other stabilizers or methods. Increase load capacity and sheer strength! The ion exchange actually transforms and increases the unconfined compressive strength of the soil. Reduces Maintenance costs! Because base and sub-base failures are virtually eliminated. Permanent! Ion exchange characteristics outlast lime and are considered permanent by many engineers. The Science TX ProChem Soil Stabilizer is an environmentally friendly ion-exchange medium that surpasses lime’s effect on clay based soils and costs less to install and maintain. TX ProChem Soil Stabilizer controls the moisture content of clay and other fine-grained soils, which increases their support value and reduces their tendency to shrink and swell. As a proven stabilization compound, it has been used in thousands of applications in Texas as well as nationwide for stabilization. TX ProChem Soil Stabilizer works by changing a soil’s basic electrochemical nature, which inhibits its ability to associate with water. In untreated soils, clay platelets have a negative charge that attracts and bonds with positively charged water molecules. TX ProChem Soil Stabilizer has a far stronger positive charge than water and replaces the water bonded to soil particles. The freed water drains or evaporates from the soil. This is an irreversible ion-exchange. Therefore, a onetime application limits water bonding forever.
