Description:

Cement-based fixation systems are among the most commonly employed stabilization/solidification techniques. hese cement haste mixtures, however, are vulnerable to ardic leaching solutions. eaching of cement-based waste forms in acetic acid solutions with different acidic strengths has been investigated in this work. he examination of the pH profile along the acid penetration route by various pH colorimetric indicators is reported. lear-cut leaching boundary of approximately 100 pm width was observed in every leached sample.
