  • Eggleton, Richard A.; Gerald, John Fitz (The Clay Minerals Society, 2011)
    Illite from Muloorina, just south of Lake Eyre in South Australia, is commonly used as a standard ferric iron-bearing illite which has a cation exchange capacity (CEC) of ~22 meq/100 g, too high a value for this clay to ...
  • Coruh, Semra; Geyikci, Feza; Elevli, Sermin (The Clay Minerals Society, 2011)
    The main objective of factorial design is to construct an empirical model to understand complex phenomena such as a purification process up to a given level of accuracy. The present study aimed to investigate the adsorption ...
  • Arthur, Randolph; Sasamoto, Hiroshi; Walker, Colin; Yui, Mikazu (The Clay Minerals Society, 2011)
    The polymer model provides a relatively simple and robust basis for estimating the standard Gibbs free energies of formation (DGof ) and standard enthalpies of formation (DHof ) of clay minerals and other aluminosilicates ...
  • Perdrial, Julia N.; Warr, Laurence N. (The Clay Minerals Society, 2011)
    Bentonites are considered suitable backfill material for planned underground nuclear-waste repositories because of an inherent capacity to self-seal and retain contaminants when hydrated. Barrier effectiveness, however, ...
  • Unknown author (The Clay Minerals Society, 2011)
    The following are thanked for the time and effort they have given to providing reviews of manuscripts submitted for publication in the last 12 months.
  • Manuella, Fabio C.; Carbone, Serafina; Barreca, Giovanni (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2012)
    A diapiric intrusion of clays in the Carlentini Formation (Tortonian) was discovered in a quarry at S. Demetrio High (Hyblean Plateau, Sicily, Italy). Seven clay samples were analyzed by different analytical methods, ...
  • Miron, George Dan; Neuhoff, Philip S.; Amthauer, Georg (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2012)
    The island-arc volcanics situated in the eastern part of the Capılnas-Techereu nappe (South Apuseni Mountains, Romania) were studied to evaluate the temperature, fluid properties, and mineral chemistry during low-temperature ...
  • Petrovic, Srdjan; Rozic, Ljiljana; Vukovic, Zorica; Novakovic, Tatjana; Stanisavljev, Dragomir (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2012)
    Microwave irradiation as a means for heating bentonites during acid activation has been investigated in the past but it has never been optimized for industrial applications. The purpose of this study was to apply a factorial ...
  • Nguyen, The-bao; Lee, Chulho; Lim, Jeehee; Choi, Hangseok (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2012)
    Bentonite cake is usually formed on the excavated trench surface that is supported by the bentonite slurry during construction of slurry cutoff walls. The lower hydraulic conductivity of bentonite cakes formed during ...
  • Jiang, Yuren; Pan, Yafei; Chen, Dan; Wang, Fangping; Yan, Lingling; Li, Guiyin; Xue, Yulan (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2012)
    The collector for separating diasporic bauxite serves as a type of flotation reagent by adsorbing selectively on diaspore to make it hydrophobic enough to separate it from the aluminosilicates. Although the flotation process ...
  • Srodon, Jan; Kawiak, Tadeusz (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2012)
    This study uses the data from Miocene rocks of the Carpathian Foredeep to test the performance of the computer programs QUANTA and BESTMIN in aiding the interpretation of geophysical log data. These programs were designed ...
  • Pestitschek, Brigitte; Gier, Susanne; Essa, Mahmoud; Kurzweil, Hans (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2012)
    Recognizing weathering effects is significant for any work carried out on glauconites at the surface. The mineralogy and chemistry of glauconite grains exposed to weathering in a hot arid climate for a maximum of 42 y were ...
  • Kim, Jinwook; Furukawa, Yoko; Curry, Kenneth J.; Bennett, Richard H. (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2012)
    Particle concentration, charge, solution chemistry (i.e. ionic strength), and the nature of organic matter (OM) are the major factors controlling particle flocculation in aqueous environments. In the present study, the ...
  • Jeong, Sueng Won; Locat, Jacques; Leroueil, Serge (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2012)
    Particle-particle interactions in natural clays can be evaluated by their rheological behavior, but the results are often affected by the physicochemical properties of the clays. The behaviors of two fundamentally different ...
  • Gali, S.; Soler, J. M.; Proenza, J. A.; Lewis, J. F.; Cama, J.; Tauler, E. (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2012)
    Garnierites represent significant Ni ore minerals in the many Ni-laterite deposits worldwide. The occurrence of a variety of garnierite minerals with variable Ni content poses questions about the conditions of their ...
  • Balko, Barbara A.; Bosse, Stephanie A.; Cade, Anne E.; Jones-landry, Elise F.; Amonette, James E.; Daschbach, John L. (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2012)
    The combination of zero-valent iron (ZVI) and a clay-type amendment is often observed to have a synergistic effect on the rate of reduction reactions. In the present study, electrochemical techniques were used to determine ...
  • Arellano-cardenas, Sofia; Gallardo-velazquez, Tzayhri; Poumian-gamboa, Gloria V.; Osorio-revilla, Guillermo; Lopez-cortez, Socorro; Rivera-espinoza, Yadira (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2012)
    The flavonoid naringin is the main source of the undesirable bitter taste in some citrus juices. In commercial debittering processes, the naringin is adsorbed on non-ionic polymeric resins. Organo-clays (OCs), which have ...
