...) and the plastic limit (PL) separately, although a good correlation with LL is observed, FI poorly correlates with PL. FI was also correlated with the activity of soil, cation exchange capacity, specific surface area, and water uptake. Predicted equations from PI and activity were established on 13 independent...

...Idil Deniz Akin; William J. Likos A single-point water-vapor-sorption method for measuring specific surface area (SSA) from simplified Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) analysis is evaluated for application to natural clayey soils. The approach is predicated on the constraint that the BET C parameter...

...P. V. Sivapullaiah; B. Guru Prasad; M. M. Allam Specific surface area (SSA) of soils is calculated by determining the amount of adsorbed substance such as methylene blue (MB), ethylene glycol monoehtyl ether (EGME), or water required to form a monolayer. Free swell index and liquid limit of soils...
