Clays for Low-Carbon Cements: Overview, Progress, and Challenges. [PDF]

open access: yesGlob Chall
This review provides a critical overview of recent developments of activated clays to function as artificial pozzolans. After a thorough description of the clays that yield good pozzolanic performances, selected examples are given on thermal and mechanical activations. Chiefly, general correlations are extracted from reported data despite its scattered

Effect of reactant ratio and nanofillers type on the microstructural properties, porosity fluctuations and heavy metal removal ability of chitosan-clay hybrid materials

open access: yesApplied Surface Science Advances, 2023
The structure, porosity, and functionality of synthesized chitosan-clay nanocomposites (NCs) are examined throughout this work in relation to the initial stoichiometry and octahedral cavity occupation of the clay fraction.

A mechanochemical preparation, properties and kinetic study of kaolin–N, P fertilizers for agricultural applications**

open access: yesJournal of the Mechanical Behavior of Materials, 2021
Solvent-free ball milling was used to activate kaolin, a trioctahedral clay material, with diammonium phosphate[(NH4)2HPO4] to serve as a fast-acting phosphorus and nitrogen releasing fertilizer. Different tests on a mixture of 3:1 weight ratio of kaolin:

Composition of Smectite from Maastrichtian Sediment of the Afikpo Basin, southeast Nigeria

open access: yesJournal of Applied Sciences and Environmental Management, 2019
The sand, silt, shale and clay fractions soils derived from Maastrichtian sediments in the Afikpo Basin, southeastern Nigeria exhibit unusually high cation-exchange capacities. Smectite was identified by X-ray diffraction in all sample fractions and was

Suhailite, a new ammonium trioctahedral mica

open access: yesAmerican Mineralogist, 2009
12 páginas. A new ammonium-bearing trioctahedral mica (suhailite) has been found in gneisses from the Betic Cordillera (Spain). Suhailite appears as aggregates of golden grains unoriented with respect to the main foliation. It shows weak pleochroism from light to darker yellow and low birefringence (0.028).

Hydration of Na-saturated synthetic stevensite, a peculiar trioctahedral smectite [PDF]

open access: yesClay Minerals, 2020
AbstractSmectite interlayer water plays a key role in the mobility of elements and molecules and affects a variety of geological processes. In trioctahedral smectites, in contrast to saponite and hectorite, the layer charge of which originates from isomorphic substitutions, the stevensite layer charge originates from the presence of octahedral ...
