Abstract

A bstract The advantages of studying a clay by dividing it into a series of nearly nionodispersed systems are brought out. A method for carrying this out is described, using a Florida kaolin as an example. The size distribution in each fraction is measured by settling methods, and good agreement is indicated between these sizes and the microscopically measured sizes.
