초록

잔탄검 바이오폴리머는 대표적인 친환경 지반안정제로서, 넓은 범위의 온도와 pH에서 높은 안정성을 보이는 장점이 있다. 사질토 지반에 대한 잔탄검 바이오폴리머 적용 시 흙 입자 결합력 증대효과는 잔탄검 매트릭스의 건조과정에 의존하므로, 잔탄검 바이오폴리머 수용액의 건조과정에 따른 사질토 전단강성 증대효과에 대한 연구가 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 잔탄검 바이오폴리머 주입에 의한 사질토의 전단강성 개선효과를 평가하고자, 농도가 다른 잔탄검 바이오폴리머 수용액을 주입한 주문진 표준사에 대하여 건조 경과에 따른 전단파속도를 측정하였으며, 건조도의 정량적 평가를 위하여 전기비저항 측정이 병행되었다. 건조시간 경과에 따라 전단파속도 및 전기비저항 모두 증가하는 양상을 보였으며, 이를 통하여 건조과정에 따른 바이오폴리머 혼합토의 전단강성 증대효과를 확인하였다. 또한, 바이오폴리머 농도에 따른 전단파속도 측정 결과, 초기 농도가 높을수록 건조과정에 따라 높은 전단강성 증대효과를 나타내었다. 본 연구의 결과는 바이오폴리머 수용액 주입에 의한 사질토 지반의 전단강성 개량효과 예측에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Xanthan gum biopolymer is an ecofriendly ground stabilizer that maintains stability in a wide range of temperatures and pH values. The binding effect of sandy soil particles realized by injecting xanthan gum biopolymer is dependent on the xanthan gum matrix, which is formed during the drying process; thus a study on the effects of the drying process of the xanthan gum solution on the changes in stiffness characteristics of sandy soil is required. In this study, shear wave velocity and electrical resistivity were monitored in sandy soil specimens saturated with biopolymer solutions of different gravimetric concentrations to investigate the improvement effects of biopolymer-treated sandy soils with the drying process. The experimental results reveal that both shear wave velocity and electrical resistivity increase during drying process. The results demonstrate the stiffness improvement effects of biopolymer-treated sandy soils. In addition, a higher stiffness improvement effect was monitored in the biopolymer-treated sandy soils with a higher gravimetric concentration. The results of this study may be used to estimate the stiffness improvement effects of sandy soils treated with biopolymer solutions with the drying process.
