Organo-Clay Complexes and Interactions, Hardcover by Yariv, Shmuel (EDT); Cross, Harold (EDT), ISBN 0824705866, ISBN-13 9780824705862, Brand New, Free shipping in the US
This reference details the structures, properties, and interactions of organo-clay complexes, looks at their role in the origin of life, and describes current techniques used in the study of organo-clay complexes, including nuclear magnetic resonance, differential thermal analysis and thermogravimetry, visible spectroscopy, and infrared and thermal-infrared spectroscopy. Specific topics include interactions of vermiculites with organic compounds, organophilicity and hydrophobicity of organo-clays, and staining of clay minerals and visible absorption spectroscopy of dye-clay complexes. Yariv teaches inorganic and geochemistry at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel. Cross is editor for Patents and Design Journal in Israel. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR ()
