Intrusion of Polyethylene Glycol during Osmotic Tests: Identifying Cellulose Acetate Degrading Microbes

Cellulose acetate semipermeable membranes and polyethylene glycol (PEG) solutions are commonly used to apply suction in soils using the osmotic technique. The structural integrity of the membrane is crucial to maintain a consistent suction value throughout a test. The membrane however, is vulnerable...
