Proposta de um método de ensaio para determinação do volume de azul de metileno adsorvido pela fração fina de solos tropicais / Proposal of a test method for determination of the volume of methylene blue adsorbed by the fine fraction of tropical soils

Bonini, Andréa de Oliveira 25 November 2005 (has links)
No Brasil utiliza-se, como técnica de caracterização da fração fina dos solos tropicais, entre outras, o ensaio de adsorção de azul de metileno pelo método da mancha. No entanto, para alguns solos, há dificuldade na identificação do ponto de viragem, ou seja, quando há excesso de corante não adsorvido pelo solo. Assim, apresenta-se neste trabalho uma técnica alternativa para facilitar a determinação do volume de azul de metileno adsorvido por um solo, cujo método é baseado na adição em excesso de azul de metileno à amostra e na titulação de óxido-redução volumétrica (redox) do azul de metileno que não é adsorvido pelo solo. Para a avaliação do ensaio de adsorção de azul de metileno pelo método redox foram ensaiadas 85 amostras de solos e, a partir dos resultados, foram estabelecidos seus graus de atividade que, por sua vez, foram correlacionados com a previsão de comportamento dos solos dada pela MCT. Conclui-se que o procedimento de ensaio proposto é simples e a percepção do ponto de viragem na titulação do excesso de azul de metileno pelo agente oxidante permanganato de potássio é fácil para maioria dos solos, além de apresentar uma boa concordância com os resultados fornecidos pela classificação MCT, permitindo estabelecer, com razoável segurança, a atividade dos argilo-minerais presentes no solo / The methylene blue dye adsorption test (spot test) has been used in Brazil to characterize tropical soil fine fractions. Some soils, however, show difficulties in identifying the test end point, where there is excess of methylene blue in the suspension, not adsorbed by the soil. This work presents an alternative technique to determine the volume of methylene blue adsorbed by a soil, based on the addition of methylene blue in excess to the soil sample and in the determination of the amount of methylene blue that was not adsorbed by the soil through the oxide-reduction (redox) process. For the evaluation of the methylene blue adsorption test (using the redox test), 85 soil samples were tested; their activity levels were established and then correlated with the expected behavior defined by the MCT classification system. The main conclusion of the work is that the proposed method is simple and the identification of the reverse point in the oxide-reduction (redox) process is easy for a majority of soils. The process uses potassium permanganate as the oxidizing agent. It determines, with a great degree of accuracy, the activity levels of the mineral clay portions, showing a significant concordance with the results of the MCT classification system

Detection and Quantification of Expansive Clay Minerals in Geologically-Diverse Texas Aggregate Fines

Russell, George 1983- 14 March 2013 (has links)
Expansive clay mineral contamination of road aggregate materials in Texas is a persistent problem. Hydrous layer silicate minerals - particularly smectites - in concretes are associated with decreased strength and durability in Portland cement and asphalt concretes. The Texas Department of Transportation (TXDOT) and Texas A&M Transportation Institute (TTI) evaluated the methylene blue adsorption test for its potential to identify and estimate quantities of expansive clays in aggregate stockpiles. Clay mineral quantification was completed for 27 geologically-diverse aggregate materials from Texas, Oklahoma, and Arkansas. X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) of separated clays on glass was conducted, and NEWMOD was utilized to model the resulting diffraction patterns. Methylene blue adsorption (MBA) and cation exchange capacity (CEC) of clay fractions (< 2µm) and -40 mesh screenings (< 400 µm) were determined for most aggregates. Many of the aggregates exhibited significant quantities of expansive clay minerals such as smectite, which are linked to deleterious performance properties in concretes. While the majority of aggregates were derived from crushed limestone or calcareous river gravel parent materials, severalexhibited uncommon origins and unusual clay mineralogy. Due to the relatively low number of aggregates tested and diverse geological origins of the different aggregates,it proved difficult to formalize any conclusions abouttrendsbetweenthedifferent aggregate performance properties.
