In order to trace the calcium carbonate and calcium hydroxide in the stabilized soil, x-ray diffraction analyses, differential thermal analysis, and thermagravimetric analyses were made. Results show the appearance of calcium carbonate and absence of calcium hydroxide.52 leavesBTDapplication/pdfIn CopyrightLD5655.V855 1964.H742Liming of soilsSoil stabilizationThesishttp://scholar.lib.vt.edu/theses/available/etd-11092012-040052/
