Description

In this work, we have studied the properties of the bentonite and effect of Cs-sorption on its properties using various electron microscopy techniques like Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Ion exchange is one of the sorption mechanism for Cs+ onto bentonite and the Al–O–H and H–O–H groups of the bentonite might participate in the Cs+ sorption process. A structural property of bentonite does not change significantly after Cs-sorption is confirmed from X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. (author)
