Thermal conductivity evaluation for bentonite buffer materials under elevated temperature conditions

In most countries, the upper limit of the buffer temperature in a geological repository for nuclear waste is set below 100 °C because of possible illitization. This smectite-to-illite transformation likely causes the swelling function of the buffer to deteriorate. However, stipulation of a higher te...
