Ferric oxalate catalyst supported on phosphoric acid treated kaolin (ATKaol) was prepared and tested on the degradation of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP). The X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) characterization results showed drastic distortions in the raw kaolin (Kaol) crystalline structure and an increase in specific surface area (SSA) from 18.78 to …
Kaolinite, the primary component of kaolin, is a white, soft, and non-plastic clay that acts as an important filler in this polymer field. It produces a smooth surface finish, reduces shrinkage and cracking during curing, improves impact strength, and enhances resistance to the effects of weathering and chemical action for polymers [2] .
In practice, an example of clay minerals is kaolinite which is a major silicate gangue mineral encountered in base metal, critical and precious minerals deposits. Owing to kaolinite's colloidal size along with a crystal layered network structure, these properties exacerbate the extent of its entrainment during flotation (Zhang et al., 2015).

Kaolinite was deposited from a fluid with minimum temperatures between 210 and 250ºC, minimum pressure of 1.7 to 3.7 MPa, and salinity between 4.6 and 5.1 wt.% NaCl eq. Both dickite and kaolinite are related to the acidic pre-mineralization phase in the deposits.

Kaolinite is a clay mineral with a chemical composition of Si 2 Al 2 O 5 (OH) 4, the chemical composition is Al 2 O 3 (39.50%), SiO 2 (46.54%) and H 2 O (13.96%). The crystal is a layered silicate mineral of the triclinic system [31].Generally, kaolinite is white color, sometimes the impurities contain red, blue or brown, and in the form of pseudo-hexagonal plates.

Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is one of the culprits responsible for hazardous wound infections and food contamination, and unrestrained antibiotic use has led to its widespread drug resistance.To tackle this issue, kaolinite (KAO) was modified with benzalkonium chloride (BAC) by a dry modification process to produce a material (BAC/KAO) that exhibits …
This paper reviews the literature concerning the effects of pore water chemistry on residual shear strength (τ;.). It presents the results of index limit and residual shear strength testing undertaken on kaolinite and sodium montmorillonite, using concentrations of calcium chloride similar to the calcium levels measured in groundwaters obtained from landslipped calcareous mudrock of …
Unexpectedly, the latter group reported that binary mixtures of kaolinite-quartz are less prone to compaction than pure kaolinite [72, 73], which is theoretically peculiar [38,64,67]. Their ...
Muscovite-kaolinite intergrowths found in Albian sandstones of the Basque Cantabrian basin (northern Spain) were studied by optical, scanning and electron microscopy and electron microprobe analysis. Kaolinitization begins at grain edges, forming the characteristic fanned-out textures, and propagates toward the interior along the cleavages of muscovite. …
It is well known that water negatively affects the mechanical properties of clay soil (Thapa et al., 2020).For stretching experiment, the water content is the most significant factor affecting the tensile strength of clay compared to others such as the tensile rate (Tollenaar et al., 2017).In the direct tension test of Sun et al. (2024) and Li et al. (2019), the tensile strength of …
