Produktbeschreibung

This book describes bentonite soil, examines its origins, and also discusses the multiple industrial uses of these clay minerals as well as their behavior and function in nature. The book also examines how raw soil and rock materials are treated for manufacturing different types of commercially available smectitic clays and the methods for both preparing and storing them for practical uses. The book details the physical and chemical properties of smectite clay saturated with water or other solutions.
