Clay geosynthetic barriers - Determination of water absorption of bentonite (ISO 10769:2011)

ISO 10769:2011 specifies a method for determining the water absorption of bentonite. The bentonite component is a part of clay geosynthetic barriers (GBR-C). Water absorption depends on the specific surface of the fine particles and the surface activity of the bentonite. The test provides an index value for production control testing of GBR-C.

Geosynthetische Tondichtungsbahnen (GBR-C) - Bestimmung der Wasseraufnahme von Bentonit (ISO 10769:2011)

Diese Internationale Norm legt ein Verfahren zur Bestimmung der Wasseraufnahme von Bentonit fest.
Bentonit ist ein Bestandteil von geosynthetischen Tondichtungsbahnen (GBR-C). Die Wasseraufnahme wird
von der spezifischen Oberfläche der feinen Partikel und der Oberflächenaktivität von Bentonit bestimmt. Die
Prüfung bietet einen Indexwert für die Prüfung der Produktionskontrolle geosynthetischer Tondichtungsbahnen
(GBR-C).

Géosynthétiques bentonitiques - Détermination de l'absorption d'eau par la bentonite (ISO 10769:2011)

L'ISO 10769:2011 spécifie une méthode de détermination de l'absorption d'eau par la bentonite. La bentonite est un constituant des géosynthétiques bentonitiques (GSB). L'absorption d'eau dépend de la surface spécifique des particules fines et de l'activité de surface de la bentonite. L'essai fournit un indice pour les essais de contrôle de la production des GSB.

Glinene geosintetične ovire (GBR-C) - Določevanje absorpcije vode bentonita (ISO 10769:2011)

Ta mednarodni standard določa metodo za določevanje absorpcije vode bentonita. Komponenta bentonita je del glinenih geosintetičnih ovir (GBR-C). Vodna absorpcija je odvisna od določene površine finih delcev in površinske aktivnosti bentonita. Preskus zagotavlja vrednost indeksa za produkcijsko kontrolno preskušanje GBR-C.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
