Effect of Bentonite Content and Hydration Time on Mechanical Properties of Sand–Bentonite Mixture

Effect of Bentonite Content and Hydration Time on Mechanical Properties of Sand–Bentonite Mixture

The bentonite is commonly used mixed with soils for groundwater retention and waste contaminant facilities. The incorporation of bentonite could significantly reduce hydraulic conductivity. In this study, the effects of bentonite content, hydration time and effective confining pressure on the static...
