Water inrush and mud gushing are one of the biggest hazards in construction. Due to the different settings of different locations, the unfavorable geological sections cannot be fully determined before construction, which increases the risk of water inrush and mud gushing.
The treatment methods include choosing a method of advanced geological forecast according to risk degrees of different sections in the construction, determining the items of predictions, and choosing the appropriate methods.
Acrylate gels
In fact, acrylate systems also penetrate fine-particle, non-cohesive types of soil and solidify these while preserving certain ductility of the stabilized areas at the same time.
To stop only a minor water inrush using this technique, the acrylate gel must be set to its most rapid reaction time (approx. 10-15s). The injection process should be carried out at a flow rate as high as possible via packers with a large inner diameter.
Polyurethane resin
Rigid polyurethane injection resins harden to form a tough injection material used to seal water inrushes, or for the consolidation and filling of voids.
Their low viscosity ensures good penetration into the rock strata to seal leaks and achieve durable consolidation.
Polyurethane resins seal with very good edge adhesion and also have useful water-repelling hydrophobic characteristics.
