Kaolinite, by name, was known since the Yuan (Mongol) dynasty in the thirteenth century as "Kaolin earth" and was first properly described by Song Yingxing in 1637 in his book Tian Gong Kai Wu (translated: "Introduction to Heaven's Handicrafts" or "The Exploitation of …

Using a chronosequence of former open cast kaolinite mines in South West England (0, 2, 27, and 150 years since mining ceased), we determined the ability of ALH vegetation and soils to reestablish naturally and in addition, for the three youngest sites, how the reinstatement of stored overburden affected heathland regeneration.

kaolin, also called china clay, soft white clay that is an essential ingredient in the manufacture of china and porcelain and is widely used in the making of paper, rubber, paint, and many other products. Kaolin is named after the hill in China (Kao-ling) from which it was mined for centuries. Samples of kaolin were first sent to Europe by a French Jesuit …

Kaolinite has a low shrink–swell capacity and a low cation-exchange capacity, making it ideal for many industrial applications. Uses During 2013, 48% of Kaolin was used in paper production, and 52% was used for ceramics, light bulbs, paint, rubber, adhesives, smoking pipes, white wash in masonry, absorbents, and in soap.

The occurrence of 2:1 phyllosilicate contaminants appears, so far, to provide the best explanation for the high charge and potassium selectivity of halloysite. Yet, hydration properties of the mineral probably play a major role in ion sorption. Clear trends seem to relate particle morphology and structural Fe.

IV. Structure des principaux minéraux argileux ? Structure de la kaolinite : La kaolinite est constituée d'une succession de couches alternées de feuillets en tétraèdre (Silice) et de feuillets en octaèdre (Aluminium), qui explique donc que l'on considère la kaolinite comme un minéral argileux 1/1. Sa formule théorique est Si4Al4O10(OH)8.
