Abstract Chemical and crystallochemical properties of natural dioctahedral Fe-rich smectites formed by weathering basaltic rocks in the Berici-Euganei Area, northern Italy, were investigated. It was found that: (i) b -dimension could be correlated both to Fe 3+ /Σ ratio (Σ = octahedral occupancy) dehydroxylation peak temperature range 400–600°C; (ii) it is not correct impose a total occupancy strictly equal 2 for smectites; (iii) smectite group there continuous isomorphous series as would...

Brindley et al. (1951) reported the earliest efforts to obtain international collaboration on nomenclature and classification of clay minerals, initiated at International Soil Congress in Amsterdam 1950. Since then, national groups were formed, they proposed various changes group meetings Clay Conferences. Most have representation Nomenclature Committee Association Internationale pour l'Etude des Argiles (AIPEA, for Study Clays), which was established 1966. The precursor committee AIPEA...

Abstract The purpose of this report is to describe the appropriate use indices relating crystallinity, such as ‘crystallinity index’, ‘Hinckley ‘Kü bler and ‘Árkai index’. A ‘crystalline’ solid defined a consisting atoms, ions, or molecules packed together in periodic arrangement. index’ purported be measure although there uncertainty about what means (see below). This discusses briefly nature order, disorder crystallinity phyllosilicates why should avoided. If possible, it suggested that...

The crystal structure and M-site populations of a series micas-1M from miarolitic pegmatites that formed within host granitic rocks the Precambrian, anorogenic Pikes Peak batholith, central Colorado, were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. Crystals fall in polylithionitesiderophyllite- annite field, being 0 ≤ Li 2.82, 0.90 Fetotal 5.00, 0.26 [6]Al 2.23 apfu. Ordering trivalent cations (mainly Al3+) is revealed cis-octahedral site (M2 or M3), which leads to lowering layer...

The μ-oxo Fe(III)-phenanthroline complex [(OH2)3(Phen)FeOFe(Phen) (OH2)3]+4 intercalated in montmorillonite provides a stable hybrid material. In this study, the ability and efficiency of material to immobilize thiols gas phase, acting as trap at solid-gas interface, were investigated.
