  • Deocampo, Daniel M.; Behrensmeyer, Anna K.; Potts, Richard (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2010)
    The Pleistocene Olorgesailie Formation in the southern Kenya Rift has yielded a remarkable assemblage of Acheulean artifacts and vertebrate fossils, including hominin specimen KNM-OG 45500. Members 1 and 7 both contain ...
  • Liang, Hu-nan; Long, Zhu; Zhang, Hui; Yang, Shu-hui (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2010)
    Acid-activated bentonites are utilized in many applications, including those that depend on their rheological properties and behavior, but little information is available regarding the rheological characteristics of this ...
  • Yuan, Hongji; Bish, David L. (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2010)
    NEWMOD was developed by R.C. Reynolds, Jr., for the study of two-component interstratifications of clay minerals. One-dimensional X-ray diffraction (XRD) profiles of an interstratified system of two clay minerals can be ...
  • Guerra, Denis L.; Ferrreira, Josane N.; Pereira, Mario J.; Viana, Rubia R.; Airoldi, Claudio (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2010)
    The contamination of aquatic environments by toxic metals such as radionuclides is of great concern because of the tendency of those metals to accumulate in the vital organs of humans and animals, causing severe health ...
  • Sommer, Alicia E.; Fetter, Geolar; Bosch, Pedro; Lara, Victor H (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2010)
    The morphology of hydrotalcites determines their use in catalysis, biomedicine, or adsorption as they may work as anion exchangers or as drug deliverers. In catalysis, reagents need access to as much surface area as possible; ...
  • Mazzieri, Francesco; Emidio, Gemmina Di; Van Impe, Peter O. (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2010)
    Chemically modified bentonites are being developed with the aim of preserving low hydraulic conductivity in the presence of potentially aggressive permeants in pollutant-containment applications. ‘Multiswellable’ bentonite ...
  • Wahle, Michael W.; Bujnowski, Thomas J.; Guggenheim, Stephen; Kogure, Toshihiro (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2010)
    The objective of this paper is to describe the new serpentine group mineral, guidottiite, which is analogous to cronstedtite. Guidottiite has an ideal chemical composition of (Mn2Fe3+)(SiFe3+)O5(OH)4. The sample is from ...
  • Gao, Xiaodong; Schulze, Darrell G. (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2010)
    Secondary Fe(III) oxyhydroxides play a key role in controlling the mobility and bioavailability of trace metals in acidic, sulfate-rich soils, such as mining and smelter sites. Schwertmannite, jarosite, goethite, and ...
  • Somelar, Peeter; Kirsimae, Kalle; Hints, Rutt; Kirs, Juho (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2010)
    The mineralogical characteristics of Ordovician and Silurian K-bentonites in the Baltic Basin were investigated in order to understand better the diagenetic development of these sediments and to link illitization with the ...
  • Likos, William J.; Wayllace, Alexandra (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2010)
    Methods for predicting the volume change and swelling-pressure behavior of expansive clays require detailed understanding of coupled interactions between clay microstructure and macrostructure under hydraulic, thermal, and ...
  • Kaur, Navdeep; Singh, Balwant; Kennedy, Brendan J. (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2010)
    The morphology, dehydroxylation, and dissolution properties of single- and multi-metal (Cr, Zn, Cd, and Pb)-substituted goethites prepared using hydrothermal methods are reported. The crystal morphology varied with the ...
  • Ozgen, Selcuk; Yildiz, Ahmet (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2010)
    As advances in technology have led to increased use of bentonites, more high-quality bentonite has been sought. The volume of high-quality bentonites available is shrinking and use of bentonite reserves containing impurities ...

  • Batista, Marcelo A.; Da Costa, Antonio C. S.; Bigham, Jerry M.; De Santan, Henrique; Zaia, Dimas A. M.; De Souza Junior, Ivan G. (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2010)
    Maghemite (g-Fe2O3) is a ferrimagnetic Fe oxide commonly found in tropical and subtropical soils, especially in the topsoil where it is usually a product of burning. Isomorphic substitution (IS) of the Fe in maghemite by ...
  • Li, Zhaohui; Kolb, Vera M.; Jiang, Wei-teh; Hong, Hanlie (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2010)
    Due to swelling, smectite minerals are capable of intercalating many organic molecules in their interlayer space. Tetracycline (TC) is a group of antibiotics used extensively in human and veterinary medicine. The great ...
  • Xi, Yuanzhou; Davis, Robert J. (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2010)
    Glycerol is a byproduct of biodiesel synthesis by transesterification of triglycerides with shortchain alcohols in the presence of solid base catalysts. Because hydrotalcite is a potentially useful basic catalyst for the ...
  • Juncosa, Ricardo; Navarro, Vicente; Delgado, Jordi; Vazquez, Ana (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2010)
    Bentonite is often proposed as an engineered-buffer material in high-level radionuclide wastemanagement systems. For effective design of the barrier that will provide protection over the long time periods required, the ...
