Studies on Hydration Swelling and Bound Water Type of Sodium- and Polymer-Modified Calcium Bentonite

Modified calcium bentonite (Ca-bentonite) is extensively used in engineered barrier systems (EBSs) for municipal and industrial disposal sites due to its high swelling potential and low hydraulic conductivity. However, few studies have focused on the micromechanism of hydration and swelling under th...
