Letter To The Editor: ‘Measurement Of Clay Surface Areas By Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) Sorption: A New Method For Quantifying Illite And Smectite Abundance’

Abstract

Blum and Eberl (2004) presented a new technique for determining the surface area of clay minerals in sediment samples by measuring the amount of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) [CAS#9003-39-8] adsorbed by a sample, and explained how the surface-area determination can be used to determine quantitatively the smectite content of the samples.
