Role of clay microstructure in expandable buffer clay
Smectite-rich clay is a major engineered barrier (buffer) in repositories for heat-producing highly radioactive waste. It has the form of densely compacted blocks of clay granules and is only partly water saturated from start. The initial porewater is redistributed by the thermal gradient acting in the buffer and additional water is taken up to give ultimately complete saturation. The compactio...
متن کاملAlkali Cation Selectivity and Fixation by Clay Minerals
-Two variables must be considered when calculating exchange free energies (AG~ for 2:1 clays: (1) anionic field strength, as expressed by equivalent anionic radius (ra), and (2) interlayer water content, as expressed by interlayer molality. For smectites that are in a state of high hydration, interlayer molality is determined by the cations undergoing exchange. Thus AG~ for an exchanging cation...
متن کاملEffect of Alkali Content on Strength and Microstructure ofGGBFS Paste
The effect of alkali content (% K2O + %Na2O) on the mechanical properties of alkali activated blast furnace paste has been investigated. The paper presents the study on workability, compressive strength, split tensile strength and microstructure of alkali activated blast furnace slag paste specimens prepared by using of sodium silicate and potassium hydroxide solution as activators. The experim...
متن کاملClay Minerals: Adsorbophysical Properties
The structure and features of surfaces of clay minerals (kaolin, montmorillonite, etc) have an important scientific and practical value. On the surface the interrelation of processes at electronic, atomic and molecular levels is realized. Availability of mineral surface to external influences opens wide scientific and technical opportunities of use of the surface phenomena, so the research of c...
متن کاملOptical and Thermal Properties of Mixed Alkali Phosphate Based Glasses
Glassy samples with a composition of 40P2O5–30V2O5–(30-x)Li2O– xK2O, 0<x<30 (mol %) were prepared by the conventional melt quenching technique in two forms of bulk and blown film. X-ray diffraction patterns corroborated the amorphous feature of the samples. Density of samples was investigated by using Archimedes principle. Based on absorption and reflection spectra, indirect a...
