What is Clay? : (Ton)
•Designation of the smallest particle size fraction of soil
(irrespective of the mineral composition)
•Mineral name for natural, earthy, fine-grained material
Main component: clay minerals (layered silicates)

Structure of the layered silicates
• 2D Structure (layered structure)
• anisotropic particles
• nanocrystalline
a) Brucite type octahedral (trioctahedral;CdI2-Typ; Brucite: Mg(OH)2)
b) Tetrahedral layer
c) Gibbsite type octahedral (dioctahedral; BiI3-Typ Gibbsite: Al(OH)3)

Analysis - Powder Diffraction
d [001] = 2·d [002] = 3·d [003] = l·d [00l]
Integrity of the series:
X
SD100CV
CV: Coefficient of Variation
CV > 0,75 %: random inter
stratified
(different d-spacing along
stacking)
CV < 0,75 %: ordered system
(ordered stacking sequence)

Analysis - Powder Diffraction
As Fe-bipy-hectorite with Na-hectorite
Fe-bipy hectorite d001 at about 1.8 nm,
the Na-hectorite-d001 is about 1.2 nm
The 001 reflection is usually the strongest reflection and largest d value
