Singapore.
It is a high-tech specialists company in
Asia-Pacific region, where its principal
business activities include
the research and development, manufacture,
supply and application
of the high-tech construction materials -
Chemilink™ Series
Products and Technologies; construction of
international civil and building projects;
engineering consultancy and management; and
international import/export trading .
Instek Holding has its own subsidiaries,
branches or associate companies in this
region and Chemilink Technology Group is its
major wholly owned subsidiary for
s Chemilink™ busines worldwide.
In
September 2004, Instek has signed a global
exclusive agreement with Global Technology
Development Foundation (GTDF; www.gtdf.org)
chaired by Mr. Hardi Kusuma to promote
Chemilink™ Technologies & Products into
global market.
Instek has
its own legally registered Chemilink™ Series
Products and Technologies for the
infrastructure and construction industry.
The Chemilink™ series have been developed
and produced based on the latest scientific
results and technologies, in which the key
raw materials, semi-finished products and
additives are mainly imported from/made in
North American and European countries.
It should be noted that some of these series
are unique products and technologies in this
region.
The main purpose of developing Chemilink™
series is to provide the latest high-tech,
superior quality and cost-effective products
and innovative application technologies to
the infrastructure and building construction
industry.
Chemilink™ series have widely been
applied in Asia countries for the past over
ten years and acknowledged by the relevant
government authorities and professionals.
Some of these series have been specified
and/or endorsed in these countries' public
works specifications. Chemilink™
Technologies & Products have brought
numerious trade records and good interests
to the Company for the past years.
One of
Instek's business objectives is to be a
leader in this region for construction
materials and technologies within the next
years, through our own continuously
intensive research and development,
innovatively introducing the latest
scientific results and technologies, and
creatively developing the new ones and
modifying the existing to satisfy/meet
various local needs and requirements.
With a
focus in the marketing, supply and
application of Chemilink™ Series Products
and Technologies, but not limited to
Chemilink™, Instek, functioning as the
Specialist and Contractor, offers its
excellent "Total Solution" to clients from
feasibility study, design and supply to
construction, project management and quality
control for the relevant civil and building
projects.
Instek does also provide "Chemilink™
Technology Transfer Services" to the local
through technical training, construction
supervision, project management, quality
assurance and quality control.
Furthermore in alliance with its business
associates, Instek regionally undertakes
various infrastructure and building projects
where we are specialised in design and
construction of runway/taxiway, highways and
main roads, quick and effective treatment of
shallow base foundations especially in
swampy and soft ground areas, and the
chemical- soil stabilisation and
chemical-stone/gravel stabilisation.
In building
construction, Instek provides a "Total
Solution" with a comprehensive range of
building materials and services which cover
most areas of the construction and have
higher technical contents, superior quality
and performance, easy, simple and fast
installation, practical improvement and
modification, and quick as well as effective
technical response. |

Chemilink™
SS-108
Soil
Stabilizing Agent
Chemilink™ SS-108
is a polymer modified cementitious chemical binder
delivered in fine powder form.
It has specially been developed for soil
stabilization in tropical areas to improve
problematic soil conditions with frequent rainfall,
high water table, lack of good and economical
construction materials and unsuitable, weak, or peat
soils. Chemilink™ SS-108 sub-series includes several
similar but independent-to-use products to treat
most known soils at different conditions.
Chemilink™ SS-108 has successfully been applied in
South-East Asia since 1994 for many projects of such
as airport runways, highways, shipyard platforms,
public/private roads and parking yards.
It has been verified by many countries’ authorities
and endorsed in some countries’ public works
specifications. It has also been verified and
applied in China.

Functions |
To improve and
maintain the soaked strengths of soils and
thereby to improve the bearing capacity of
sub-grade or stabilized soil through binding
of soil particles and immediate chemical
reaction with soils;
To form a semi-rigid platform with a certain
tensile strength and thereby to reduce total
settlements and to minimize differential
settlements;
To decrease the compressibility and
permeability of soils and to provide
anti-cracking effect, and thereby to reduce
or eliminate the potential damages due to
such as swelling, shrinkage and seepage; and
To improve the long-term
performance of soils. |
The
installation results of Chemilink™ soil
stabilization are effective and reliable
with a proper quality control. The Chemilink™
SS-108 has been designed to treat most known
soils and more effective and economical for
sandy and silt soils;
The resulted “platform effect” can
significantly reduce total settlements and
minimize differential settlements;
The anti-cracking effect and lower
permeability and compressibility are the
major factors to maintain long-term
performance of pavement; and
The chemicals have no damages to
be environment and ozone friendly.

Benefits |
Typical Applications |
To directly
improve the in-situ soil and minimize the
usage and transportation of imported fill
materials, therefore, to protect the natural
environment and cause less disturbances to
public traffic;
To maintain the strengths of stabilized
soils in soaking conditions thereby to
achieve long-term pavement performance
especially in low-lying, flood prone and
swampy areas;
Easy and fast soil stabilization procedures
can enable contractors to complete the
project in a shorter period of time than
conventional construction method and thus
enabling developers to generate more revenue
in advance. Furthermore, the construction
procedure is also taking into consideration
of wet weather factors to eliminate possible
losses caused by rain; |
Chemilink™
SS-108 stabilized soils/quarries can be used
as base course, sub-base course and improved
sub-grade for:
Airport runways, taxiways, services roads
and parking areas;
Highways, expressways, main national/city
roads;
Normal public roads;
Rural/plantation roads and
construction/temporary roads (without
surface layer);
Various road shoulders;
Shipyards, ports, railways, loading yards,
parking bays and etc;
Shallow base foundations; and
Other |
Construction Procedure
Spreading Chemilink™SS-108
on the ground to be stabilized;
Mixing Chemilink™ SS-108 with the in-situ soil; and
Compaction
In addition, the results achieved using the Central
Mixing Plant could be better.
