Removal of cesium from synthetic aqueous solution through adsorption on bentonite, under batch equilibrium experimental condition at different values of pH and four temperatures (303, 313, 323, 333 K) was investigated. For this propose the suitability of the Freundlich adsorption model for equilibrium data were investigated. The parameters in the adopted adsorption isotherm models were determin...

The consolidation properties of soil-bentonite (SB) backfills containing 20% the weight sodium-hexametaphosphate-modified calcium bentonite (SHMP-20CaB) and prepared with 0 mM to 1000 chloride (CaCl2) solution were evaluated. results indicated that both stress CaCl2 concentration had significant effects on behaviors SHMP-20CaB backfill. In general, an increase in resulted a decrease void ratio ...

Composites are relevant to high-performance materials in the aerospace sector and have attracted attention of scientific technological communities. Bentonites present very fine granulometry which enables their use composites. This study showed development water absorbent composite based on sodium polyacrylate, bentonite coated by epoxy resin. Since there gaps quantification near-infrared spectr...

Introduction. T HE affinity between certain organic compounds and clays has been known for many years. Lloyd 1 reported the adsorptive capacity of fuller's earth for alkaloids in 1916 without theorizing extensively about the mechanism. Smith 2 reacted organic bases and their salts with bentonite and presented evidence that the reaction was one of baseexchange or metathesis, while tIauser a has ...

In this study, the shelf life of fresh-cut iceberg lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) was evaluated. Lettuce samples were washed with disinfectant agents and sodium hypochlorite then soaked in an ascorbic acid solution. Next, stored packaging films containing three levels (1% 3% 0% as a control film) nano-bentonite particles (NBPs) filler modified atmosphere for 12 days at 4 °C. Various physicochemica...
