Other clays, such as montmorillonite, have layers that are loosely attached and will swell greatly when water intervenes between the layers.
32.
The clay soils containing montmorillonite or smectite ( swelling clays ) are more subject to alkalinity problems than illite or kaolinite clay soils.
33.
Among the clays most commonly used are kaolin and the smectite clays such as bentonite, montmorillonite, and Fuller's earth.
34.
A 2 : 1 clay consists of an octahedral sheet sandwiched between two tetrahedral sheets, and examples are talc, vermiculite and montmorillonite.
35.
Typical ion exchangers are ion exchange resins ( functionalized porous or gel polymer ), zeolites, montmorillonite, clay, and soil humus.
36.
Soil containing the common clay mineral montmorillonite ( Mte ) and kaolinite ( Kte ) binds more effectively with the prions than soil containing quartz.
37.
The neutral aluminium hydroxide sheets are found sandwiched between silicate sheets in important clay groups : the illite, kaolinite, and montmorillonite / smectite groups.
38.
This swelling property makes montmorillonite-containing bentonite useful also as an annular seal or plug for water wells and as a protective liner for landfills.
39.
"[ B ] eidellitic montmorillonite is efficient for C-IBS patients ( suffering from constipation-predominant irritable bowel syndrome ) . . ."
40.
It can vary from 2.1 ( montmorillonite ) to 2.76 ( chlorite ) so this tool is not as useful for determining their porosity.
