Physical and Hydraulic Conductivity Behavior of Sand- and Slag-Bentonite Mixes Modified Using Nanoclay Particles
The effective uses of nanotechnology and nanomaterials for geotechnical applications such as dams, water retaining structures and landfill liner/barrier are still the matter of current research. Hence, it has been aimed in the present study to explore the potential use of nanoclay particles to modify the physical and hydraulic conductivity behavior of sand (i.e., a natural earth material) and slag (i.e., a by-product of iron industry). Detailed experimental investigations such as Atterberg’s limits, compaction characteristics and hydraulic conductivity are conducted on bentonite-amended sand and slag with nanoclay particles (i.e., 1–3%). The results show that the nanoclay increases the plasticity index of both mixes. Further, addition of 2% nanoclay has shown promising results in terms of increase in MDD and hydraulic conductivity of both mixes. However, it is revealed that minimal nanoclay content can reduce the bulk amount of bentonite content to be utilized for various geotechnical constructions activities.
