Description

MX-80 bentonite saturated with pressurized weakly brackish water, was heated up to 130 degrees C with and without γ-radiation for 1 years. The smectite content remained largely intact while accessory minerals like feldspars were strongly affected. The hydraulic conductivity was not altered but slight cementation by precipitated silica took place
