Kinetic features of phase transformation of kaolinite into metakaolinite for kaolin clays from different deposits

TL;DR: In this article, the rate of the endothermic process of kaolinite transformation into metakaolinite was examined by X-ray phase and thermogravimetric analyses, as well as by means of differential scanning calorimetry.

Mineralogical and chemical composition of the clay fraction of some Nile aluvial soils in Egypt

TL;DR: In this paper, an analysis of the clay fraction of some typical alluvial soils of the Nile delta was carried out using X-ray, thermal and chemical analysis in addition to cation exchange capacity (CEC), surface area, and K-fixation measurements.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antibacterial Polyethylene/clay Nanocomposites Using Chlorhexidine as Organic Modifier

TL;DR: In this paper, a set of low density polyethylene/clay nanocomposites with increasing amount of organoclay nanofiller (3, 6 and 10 W %) was prepared by melt compounding procedure without additives.

Alteration of glassy volcanic rocks to Na- and Ca-smectites in the Neogene basin of Manisa, western Anatolia, Turkey

TL;DR: In this paper, the main clay minerals present are Na- and Ca-smectite and subordinate illite, associated with silica polymorphs, trace clinoptilolite and chlorite.
