Pre-compacted bentonite bricks are often considered as sealing/backfill elements in deep geological repositories for high level radioactive waste. A good understanding of their microstructure changes upon hydration is essential as the microstructure changes are directly related to the macroscopic hydro-mechanical behaviour. In this study, the microstructure features of the compacted MX80 bentonite...
Thermal conductivity of compacted bentonite is one of the most important properties in the design of high-level radioactive waste repositories where this material is proposed for use as a buffer. In the work described here, a thermal probe based on the hot wire method was used to measure the thermal conductivity of compacted bentonite specimens. The experimental results were analyzed to observe the...
