Quantitative Insights into Atomic Scale Oil–Clay Adhesion Governing Shale Oil Retention and Mobility

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Atomic force microscopy reveals a clear adhesion hierarchy between shale oil and clay minerals, governed by nanoscale surface chemistry. Strong interactions on chlorite and illite arise from abundant polar sites and cation bridging, whereas weaker coupling on montmorillonite limits interfacial binding.

THE REACTIONS OF SOLUBLE ALUMINIUM WITH MONTMORILLONITE

open access: yesJournal of Soil Science, 1973
Summary The amount of aluminium sorbed by calcium bentonite from basic aluminium chloride solutions depends on the ratio of OH to A1 in the original solution. Except when OH/A1 = 0, only part of the sorbed A1 is exchanged by dilute solutions of barium or calcium chlorides and the exchange capacity of the clay ...
