Nano titanium oxide for modifying water physical property and acid-resistance of alluvial soil in Yangtze River estuary

This study aims to investigate the role of nano TiO2 in modifying the characteristics of Shanghai clayey silt – alluvial soil in Yangtze river estuary. The Shanghai clayey silt is first mixed with nano TiO2 with different size group and content before it is made to undergo liquid and plastic limit t...
