On the role of organic adlayers in the anomalous water sorptivity of Lépine limestone
(2004)
Sorptivity data are reported for the capillary absorption of water, ethanol, propan-2-ol, and n-heptane by the calcitic limestone Lépine (Lavoux à grain). The data confirm that the water sorptivity is anomalously low, an ...
Application of the Sharp Front Model to capillary absorption in a vuggy limestone
(2009)
The unusual pore size distribution and in particular the presence of large pores in certain construction materials, results in an anomalous sorptivity and a marked deviation from the standard t1/2 law. In this paper, we ...
