TEM study of kaolinite thermal decomposition by controlled-rate thermal analysis
The dehydroxylation of kaolinite leading to metakaolinite was studied by transmission electron microscopy. TEM techniques allow the study of morphology, structure (by selected-area electron diffraction) and la...

Synthesis of “SiMON” ceramics from various clays and different sources of carbon
The preparation of β-SiMONs by the thermal treatment (1373–1773 K) under nitrogen of various mixtures of clays and organic molecules (acrylonitrile) or carbon (charcoal) or graphitic oxide, was investigated. C...

Clay Minerals: A Molecular Approach to Their (Fractal) Microstructure
For most users, clays are just a class of mineral materials characterized by various properties such as a very small particle size, a strong adsorption capacity, a soft touch, or a plastic behavior when wetted...

Exchangeable Cation Distribution in Nickel- and Magnesium-Vermiculites
Abnormal scatterings of X-rays take place between Bragg spots. Their study in hydrated Mg- and Ni-vermiculites shows that they appear in reciprocal space in the form of modulated lines, elongated along the Z* axi...
