This study examines mechanical performance and microstructural changes in red clay with xanthan gum, suggesting ecological benefits.

Xanthan gum-modified red clay shows approximately linear increases in shear strength as normal stress rises.
The study found that California Bearing Ratio reaches a peak of 24.1% with optimal xanthan gum dosage.
Laboratory tests reveal initial increases in compressive strength and deformation modulus before declining at higher xanthan gum dosages.
Modifying red clay with xanthan gum can mitigate ecological impacts, offering a sustainable alternative to inorganic solidifiers.

Yang et al. (2025) studied this question.
