“…A number of studies on the use of GMs have focused on the diffusion of VOCs through virgin HDPE GMs (Park and Nibras, 1993;Prasad et al, 1994;Müller et al, 1998;Sangam and Rowe, 2001;Park et al, 2012) virgin PVC, linear lowdensity polyethylene (LLDPE) GMs with and without a coextruded ethylene vinyl-alcohol (EVOH) inner core (McWatters andRowe, 2008, 2010;Eun et al, 2014), fluorinated HDPE GMs (Sangam and Rowe, 2005), and aged HDPE GMs (Rowe et al, 2003;Islam and Rowe, 2009). The diffusion coefficients of VOCs in virgin HDPE GMs are 0.37 Â 10 À13 and 22.8 Â 10 À13 m 2 /s for benzene and DCM, respectively, with partition coefficients ranging from 1.8 to 189.…”
