Clay Swelling and Colloid Stability offers a clear view of a revolutionary process that has been taking place in clay and colloid science over the past twenty years. Explaining and documenting the Coulombic Attraction Theory (Sogami Theory), the book makes a compelling case for two major paradigm shifts in colloid science. With no prior knowledge of clay chemistry of mineral structure necessary, it presents the whole picture of the colloid revolution, taking readers from a general understanding of physical chemistry and colloid science to a deeper understanding of the physicochemical principles underlying colloid behavior. The book is of interest to materials, chemical, geotechnical, and soil scientists and engineers.
