About this document

Hydrophobic Polymer for Road Aggregate Stabilization by Jean Pajuelo is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This document summarizes a field trial and laboratory investigation of a hydrophobic polymer additive for stabilizing aggregates used in local government roads in Australia. The trial compared treated and untreated aggregates from a 200m section of an unbound gravel road that was experiencing poor performance due to water ingress. Laboratory testing showed that treating the aggregates with a dry powder polymer and lime improved properties like hydraulic conductivity, capillary rise, and resilient modulus. O
