| 21. | The white matrix found between lapilli contains alkalifeldspath, hematite, hisingerite, montmorillonite, saponite and silica.
|
| 22. | In 2010, Ferris showed that montmorillonite is capable of affecting regioselectivity of the RNA oligomers it catalyzes.
|
| 23. | Ammonium fixation occurs when ammonium pushes potassium ions from between the layers of clay such as illite or montmorillonite.
|
| 24. | They are classified as alfisols, but their high content of montmorillonite puts them close to the vertisol class.
|
| 25. | Soils with smectite clay minerals, including montmorillonite and bentonite, have the most dramatic shrink-swell capacity.
|
| 26. | Launched in 2003 the Visible and Infrared Mineralogical Mapping Spectrometer ( OMEGA ) observed montmorillonite and localized phyllosilicate minerals.
|
| 27. | The individual crystals of montmorillonite clay are not tightly bound hence water can intervene, causing the clay to swell.
|
| 28. | Sodium montmorillonite is also used as the base of some cat litter products, due to its adsorbent and clumping properties.
|
| 29. | It is made up largely of montmorillonite, a mineral high in aluminum, and beidellite, a mineral high in silicon.
|
| 30. | According to Biswas and Kriscna, there are several types of clay minerals of which Montmorillonite has the maximum swelling potential.
