Zeolite and sand mixture is an ideal reactive filling material for the Permeable Reactive barrier (PRB) due to its higher hydraulic conductivity and sorption capacity.This study applied three ASTM standard tests to examine the geotechnical engineering properties of ASTM 20-30 sand and zeolite (clinoptilolite) mixtures with varying zeolite mass percentages (25%, 50%and 75%). Conducted lab tests including:Proctor compaction, hydraulic conductivity in rigid wall permeameter and onedimensional consolidation. The goals of this study were to quantify the impact of zeolite content and compactive effort on the density, conduction and compressibility of the sand-zeolite mixtures.vi
Bis (mercaptoethanol oleate) dimethyl tin was synthesized and added to polyvinyl chloride (PVC) with various ratios. Specimens were prepared by mixing and rolling through a double-roller mixer, and their static thermal stabilities were estimated by the oven static thermal aging experiments. The influence of the bis (mercaptoethanol oleate) dimethyl tin on the dynamic thermal stability of PVC was tested through a haack torque rheometer (HAAKE PolyLab QC). The tensile strength and rate of elongation at break of the PVC specimens were evaluated by a servo-controlled tensile testing machine. The results show that the bis (mercaptoethanol oleate) dimethyl tin has excellent static and dynamic thermal stabilization effect on PVC, and to some extent, can improve the breaking elongation rate the PVC sample.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
