Osmotic oedometer using sodium chloride solution and reverse osmosis membrane by Bulolo, Sam, Leong, Eng Choon

“…Unlike the axis-translation technique and vapor equilibrium technique, the osmotic technique does not require a sealed chamber, but it is not as popular as the axis-translation technique and vapor equilibrium technique because the commonly used poly(ethylene glycol) solution and cellulosic membrane are susceptible to degradation during long-duration tests. This paper investigates the osmotic technique using sodium chloride solutions and a reverse osmosis membrane in a conventional oedometer. …”
