Changes of clay porosity between TCE contaminated soils and uncontaminated soils.
| Soil samples | Soil layer | The result value of mercury intrusion | sample weight (g) | total volume of mercury (mL/g) | total pore surface area (m2/g) | average pore diameter () | Porosity (%) |
| Uncontaminated clay | Layer (2) | 1.1792 | 0.2159 | 9.2350 | 0.0935 | 35.5756 | Layer (3) | 0.7899 | 0.4876 | 6.0540 | 0.3222 | 54.2128 | Layer (4) | 0.8404 | 0.3876 | 16.0010 | 0.0969 | 48.9643 | Layer (5) | 0.7328 | 0.3823 | 12.3330 | 0.1240 | 49.9791 | The filed contaminated clay of vinyl chloride and CH2ClCHCl2 | Layer (2) | 0.7379 | 0.3518 | 14.3610 | 0.9799 | 46.8538 | Layer (3) | 0.7074 | 0.5345 | 4.9380 | 0.4330 | 53.3527 | Layer (4) | 0.8290 | 0.3576 | 12.5630 | 0.1138 | 49.1841 | Layer (5) | 0.7556 | 0.4165 | 18.8110 | 0.8857 | 51.6281 | Indoor soaked contaminated clay of TCE | Layer (4) | 0.8904 | 0.4000 | 7.882 | 0.2030 | 50.7780 |
