The experimental study of bentonite swelling into fissures
Original language description
The geological disposal of radioactive waste, based on a multi-barrier concept wherein the first barrier consists of the metal waste container and the final barrier the host rock, is widely considered the only viable solution to this issue. The bentonite-based seal around the canister forms one of the barriers. The unique swelling, self-healing and sealing capabilities of bentonite play a major role in repository safety concepts in that they allow the bentonite barrier to withstand serious mechanical damage without its function being compromised. This paper presents experimental research focusing on the dynamics and mechanics of the sealing of cracks and joints using bentonite-based materials.
