Excerpt from Water Sorption Properties of Homoionic Clay MineralsThe data indicate that the structure of the clay mineral is primary and that exchange able cations are secondary in determining the water adsorption and plastic properties of clay minerals and clay-water systems.Sodium gave higher plastic values than did any of the other cations except lithium for the montmorillonites, whereas it gave lower values than did the other cations for the illites, kaolinites, halloysites, diaspores, and gibbsites. In addition, sodium gave tiie highest water-sorption values of any of the cations for the montmorillonites, whereas it gave values no higher than did the other cations for the other clay mineral groups.The angle of slope of the liquid limit line is probably a measure of the thixotropic properties of a clay mineral.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
