Miracore Soil Stabilizer
TECHNICAL INFORMATION

Soil generally absorbs water, the amount of which depends on its classification and properties. The absorbed water causes the swelling and shrinking of the soil and undermines its stability. To attain the densest soil and reduce its swelling and shrinking behavior "permanently", it is necessary to alter the soil reaction to water.

MIRACORE Soil Stabilizer by its chemical composition can alter the soil reaction to water through an "ion exchange." Ion exchange is the attraction of negative ions called "anions" with positive ions known as "cations."
Silt and clay mineralogical composition have a lot of excess negative ions and therefore attracts positive ions of water. This is the reason why the soil absorbs more water.

MIRACORE Soil Stabilizer has the intrinsic ability to carry different electrochemical charges simultaneously. This enables the right "cation" exchange desired by the soil mineralogy to take place. This is also why MIRACORE Soil Stabilizer can work on a number of different types of soil. (Application dosage varies each type of soil.)

When MIRACORE Soil Stabilizer is diluted in water and then applied to the soil, ion exchange takes place. This causes the existing electrochemical bond, between the soil and the absorbed water to break, thus the absorbed water becomes free water.

With the right ion exchange as desired by the soil mineralogy, the former electrochemical bond is thus replaced with a more permanent bond. This bond cannot be reversed by any process like evaporation or subsequent addition of water. The bond prevents the swelling and shrinking of soil during the wetting and drying process caused by weather. It is this reaction that causes the long lasting effects of MIRACORE Soil Stabilizer as it helps in the densification of the soil
