This property of clay is used by the paint industry to disperse pigment (color) evenly throughout a paint. Without clay to act as a carrier, it would be difficult to evenly mix the paint base and color pigment. A mixture of a lot of clay and a little water results in a mud that can be shaped and dried to form a relatively rigid solid.
Sedimentation for Soil Texture ... This activity will provide a more quantitative measure of soil texture. Using the soil characterization protocol will only give a basic description of the soil.

A modified procedure for bentonite purification and a new method for the quantitative characterization of bentonite using smectite content are reported. Bentonite found in a drill core of Tsunagi Mine, Niigata, Japan was evaluated by the new method to demonstrate the substantial increase in smectite content from 40% in the original …
For M = Cs, either a vermiculite or a 2:1 layer silicate was obtained; M = Li gave the non-clay Li 2 CoSiO 4; tetra-alkylammonium hydroxides yielded chrysotile. All phases were characterized by chemical analysis, TEM and XRD; further characterization of the smectite was undertaken by diffuse reflectance, IR and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.
Sedimentation velocity analytical ultracentrifugation (SV-AUC) coupled with direct computational fitting of the observed concentration profiles (sedimentating boundary) have been developed and widely used for the characterization of macromolecules and nanoparticles in solution. In particular, size distribution analysis by SV-AUC has become …
Indication of tectonics and sedimentation. During the evolution of petroliferous sedimentary basin, the clay minerals contained in the rocks undergo a series of changes in composition and crystal structure in response to tectonics and sedimentation. ... The modern innovative QEMSCAN ® and FIB/SEM/EDS have been …
Many studies have been performed to describe the characteristics of clay sedimentation, based on settlement and water content measurement. In addition, …
Particle size, Atterberg limits, and humidity of the material were characterized. These tests were performed for clay as well as for waste, except the Atterberg limits that were not possible with rock waste. Particle size analysis of the raw materials was performed by sieving and sedimentation according to NBR 7181 (2016) . …
