Sedimentological control on the diagenesis and reservoir quality of tidal sandstones of the Upper Cape Hay Formation (Permian, Bonaparte Basin, Australia)

TL;DR: In this paper, 42 samples were taken from five wells drilled through the Upper Cape Hay Formation of the Bonaparte Basin (Petrel gas field, Petrel sub-basin, Permian) to investigate the variability in porosity and permeability.

On the mechanism of exfoliation of ‘Vermiculite’

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the mechanism of vermiculite exfoliation by using XRD to determine the precise mineralogical composition of six samples of "Vermiculite".
Journal ArticleDOI

Selective chemical conversions using sheet silicate intercalates: Low-temperature addition of water to 1-alkenes

TL;DR: In this article, a bissec-alkyl ether is converted to the corresponding bissecalkyl alkenes by refluxing hex-1-ene, hept-1]-ene, or oct- 1-ene in hexane solution with one of a range of cation-exchanged montmorillonites.
Journal ArticleDOI

Strength behavior and microstructural characteristics of tropical laterite soil treated with sodium silicate-based liquid stabilizer

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the micro-structural characteristics of nontraditional soil additives and in particular selected additive (TX-85) have not been fully studied, i.e., compaction and unconfined compression strength test were used to assess the engineering and shear properties of the stabilized laterite soil.

Advances in the Crystal Chemistry of Sepiolite and Palygorskite

TL;DR: In this article, the variations in the chemical composition of natural sepiolites and palygorskites as well as the limit of chemical composition, if it exists, using the data from the literature available are established.
