Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study quantitatively evaluated the self-sealing properties of bentonite buffer material, a key component of barrier materials, with a view to contributing to the engineering of high-level radioactive waste geological disposal. Specifically, a one-dimensional swelling and deformation test by water absorption on the top end surface, a swelling pressure test, and a self-sealing measurement experiment were conducted, and a quantitative evaluation method for self-sealing performance was proposed based on various databases obtained. The results obtained in this study may contribute to the design of bentonite-based buffer materials from the viewpoint of self-sealing properties.
