- Some mineralogical and physical interpretations of the free- swelling characteristics of montmorillonite-water systemsFink, Dwayne Harold (Virginia Tech, 1965-06-15)Free-swelling properties of montmorillonites in water systems were studied using X-ray diffraction techniques. Four specimen type montmorillonites (Wyoming bentonite, Otay bentonite, hectorite and nontronite) and several soil clays were selected. In Phase I of the study the differential swelling properties were related to the type of cation on the exchange complex and to variations in the mineralogical properties of the montmorillonites.
- Swelling properties of some montmorillonite clays in water systemsFink, Dwayne Harold (Virginia Tech, 1962-05-13)Soil clays relatively high in montmorillonite were examined and compared to the reference material.
