Freshwater sensitivity of corrensite and chlorite/smectite in hydrocarbon reservoirs - an ESEM study
An Environmental Scanning Electron Microscope (ESEM) has been used to investigate the freshwater sensitivity of secondary corrensite (regularly interstratified chlorite/smectite) and chlorite-rich chlorite/smectite in order to determine whether ...

Corrosion of Potential Canister Materials During Oxic to Anoxic Transient in Compacted Bentonite
A comprehensive analytical approach was applied to investigate material degradation phenomena of cast iron and copper as potential canister materials for the safe disposal of high‐level radioactive waste, as well as compacted bentonite exposed to artificial water relevant for disposal. ABSTRACT The long‐term performance of the engineered barrier system

ABSTRACT Swelling of clay‐sulfate rocks is a concern in geotechnical engineering that can damage infrastructure. In the historic town of Staufen in southwest Germany, geothermal drilling into a swellable anhydrite‐bearing clay formation resulted in water inflow and subsequent swelling, triggering ground heave and damage to more than 250 houses.

Fired products of Cr-smectite clays in nitrogen [PDF]
The products of Cr-smectite clays heated to 1350 ° C in nitrogen were evaluated by X-ray diffraction and chemical analysis. Cr-smectite clays were prepared at room temperature by contact between smectite clays and Cr species contained in OH-Cr solutions.

Local structure determination of Zn-smectite
An aluminum-free zinc-bearing smectite (Zn-smectite) was synthesized under hydrothermal conditions, together with its magnesium substituted products. Its layer charge calculated by cation exchange capacity (CEC) is 117.4 mmol/100 g.
