What's the effect of adding bentonite to concrete?

Answer:

Many dams, mostly anti-seepage system failure or destruction of anti-seepage wall engineering is hidden works, through careful design, strict construction and effective supervision, to achieve the purpose of the design, has its unique rules and requirements. The technology of impervious wall is developing very fast, and new achievements are springing up in construction machinery, process and material. Impervious wall technology has been widely spread to other fields of construction, while other advanced technologies have also been transplanted to the anti-seepage wall project. All of these need us to sum up and improve frequently.
In our country every year to build lots of water conservancy and Hydropower Engineering, the engineering construction of rockfill dam in particular overburden (including Cofferdam Engineering), many have to use impervious structure of concrete impervious wall for dam or dam, there are many years of operation requires the reservoir maintenance or expansion, many of which are also used in impervious wall for reinforcement.
Plastic concrete can be divided into three types: clay plastic concrete, bentonite plastic concrete and clay bentonite plastic concrete according to the composition of cementitious material. Concrete cutoff wall is a widely used and important hydraulic structure.
The cementing material of concrete in addition to cement has bentonite, clay and so on. It can be mixed with single clay or bentonite, and can also be mixed with two kinds of materials.
