“…At present, by virtue of the characteristics of the strong permeability resistance [5], fast-setting [6], high expansion force [7], and eco-friendliness [8], the foamed polyurethane has been increasingly adopted as grouting material in civil engineering. As shown in Figure 1, the representative applications of the polymer grouting material include filling soil cavities to lift the sedimentary underground pipelines [9,10] or foundations [11,12] and constructing barriers to prevent water seepage [13,14] or the leakage of pollutants [14,15]. In these applications, the two raw materials, isocyanate and polyols, are simultaneously injected into soil at the constant mass ratio as alternatives to cement-based grouts [16,17], and after polymerization reaction, the PU matrices will be retained in the soil mass to play the reinforcing role [9,10,16].…”
