Paczyme - Clay Road-base Stabiliser

HISTORY
Paczyme is the result of over twenty-five years of research into "non-standard" soil stabilising agents It was developed by combining proven surfactant wetting agent formulations with novel biological-based (rather than chemical) active ingredients.

DESCRIPTION
A highly concentrated liquid biochemical used for soil stabilisation which is entirely biodegradable and non-toxic. Paczyme, when added to water for soil stabilisation, has immediate benefits as an effective aid to the wettability, workability, binding and compaction of clay based soils. When used in the construction of roads, airstrips, dams and other related projects, significant improvements are achieved. These are reflected in the following areas:

• Increased productivity
• Improved workability of soils
• Improved engineering properties of a soil
• Allows greater use of marginal materials
• Reduced maintenance
• Reduced permeabilities
• Increased pavement life-cycle
• Extended re-sheeting schedules
• Cost savings in materials and construction
• Options in maintenance and construction
• Non-toxic / worker friendly / easy to apply

Paczyme is a unique product that significantly improves soil stability. Developed from proven soil stabilisation formulations, Paczyme effectively enhances the workability, mixability, binding and compaction of soils. Paczyme catalyses permanent physical and chemical changes in soil which result in increases in strength, durability and compaction densities.

When used in the construction of roads, airstrips, dams and other related projects, Paczyme enables significant engineering improvements to be achieved. Clay soils treated with Paczyme develop an increased resistance to moisture infiltration. Cost savings are achieved by increasing construction productivity, greater use of marginal clay materials and significantly lowered maintenance requirements.

Paczyme is a natural, non-toxic biodegradable liquid concentrate that mixes easily in water for application with standard water spraying equipment. Paczyme is a low cost additive with long lasting effects. By altering the physical and chemical characteristics of soil, materials treated with Paczyme retain higher performance levels and extended life span.

USE PACZYME TO ACHIEVE HIGHER COMPACTION DENSITIES WITH LESS EFFORT
Paczyme allows marginal clay materials to be used for the successful construction of significantly stronger, denser and more durable unsealed roads.
Paczyme facilitated resistance to moisture infiltration, decreases soil swelling characteristics and reduces the risk of pavement surfaces becoming slippery and dangerous during wet conditions. Roads treated with Paczyme have achieved maintenance schedule reductions of up to 80%. Less dusting occurs, improving safety and preserving fine road materials.

Cost savings are achieved by

• Reduced maintenance schedules
• Use of sub-standard clay gravels that previously would have been discarded
• In situ recycling of existing gravel roads rather than complete re-sheeting
• Increased construction productivity gained by carting less water, easier mixing and fewer roller passes to achieve desired compaction levels

Roads treated with Paczyme are safer and less expensive to maintain. Machinery can be utilised for other projects. Fewer complaints will be received from rate-payers regarding problem roads. Paczyme may be used to increase the maximum dry density (MDD) and unconfined compressive strength (UCS) values of a marginal material to achieve specified standards for a base course and a seal.
