Laboratory Investigation and Mechanical Evaluation on Xanthan Gum-Reinforced Clay: Unconfined Compression Test, Triaxial Shear Test, and Microstructure Characterization

Xanthan gum (XG) has potential application prospects as a biopolymer in soil reinforcement engineering. However, there remains a lack of relevant research on its influence on the mechanical properties, microscopic mechanism, and pH value changes in clay. In this study, the effects of different XG do...
