Surface properties of kaolin and illite suspension in concentrated calcium hydroxide medium

Résumé

The adsorption behaviour of calcium hydroxide onto illite and kaolin clay minerals was investigated by monitoring with atomic emission spectroscopy and pH measurements the amounts of ions left in solution after exposing clay minerals to calcium hydroxide solutions of various concentrations. Both clay minerals can adsorb calcium and hydroxyl ions. Rather than just considering proton exchanges at the clay mineral surfaces, the adsorption is explained by an approach based on Lewis description of molecules. With this approach, a mechanism for calcium hydroxide adsorption not only at the edges of the clay particles but also onto the faces is proposed. In order to gain a better insight onto the active groups at the surface of the studied clay minerals, adsorption of pyridine and ammonia on illite and kaolin was followed by FTIR spectroscopy. These measurements gave the signature of edges, which are marginally involved in interactions with calcium ions.
