used to investigate whether various amino acids and peptides expanded montmorillonite (M) homoionic to different cations, and the electrophoretic mobility (EPM) was measured to determine whether the binding of these amino acids and peptides influenced the net surface charge of M and kaolinite (K)....
These results point to velocity-strengthening behaviour of both the mud volcano clay and reference mineral standards of smectite, illite, and kaolinite. Permeability of deformed clay-rich matrix measured using a ring shear permeameter, is less than 1019 m2 at 1 MPa normal stress. We propose that...
Due to the relatively different mechanical and physical properties of soils and structures, the interface plays a critical role in the transfer of stress and strain between them. The stability and safety of geotechnical structures are thus greatly influenced by the behavior at the soil–structure int...
Poorly drained soils tended to be dominated by smectite minerals, while dispersive and compact soils had a mixed clay mineralogical composition of smectite, mica and kaolinite. Problem-free soils were generally kaolinitic. The presence of iron oxides, as indicated by colour, had an ameliorative ...

Physical properties of minerals • Luster • Appearance of a mineral in reflected light • Two basic categories –Metallic –Nonmetallic • Other descriptive terms include vitreous, silky, earthy, waxy or others .. Pyrite displays metallic luster Kaolinite displays earthy luster ...
Duration of sintering has no impact on the aggregate properties for temperatures up to 800 and 1000°C for aggregates with bentonite and kaolinite, respectively. However, between 1000 and 1400°C, there has been considerable improvement in the aggregate properties for increasing duration up to 60...
Oil sludge residue, a solid waste from thermal decomposition of oily sludge in petroleum production, lacks properties suitable for engineering use. This study solidified it using cement (O-C), cement with steel slag powder (O-C-SSP), and cement with fly ash (O-C-F). Through unconfined com...
Finally, from the diagenetic history, the effects of weathering and fracturing on the physical properties of the different types of volcanic rocks were associated with oil and gas distribution. This study showed that the level of porosity improvement caused by weathering and leaching of the different...
