Local probing of the nanoscale hydration landscape of kaolinite basal facets in the presence of ions

Kaolinite is one of the most abundant natural clay minerals within soils at the Earth’s surface and within rock units in the upper crust. * The interface between aqueous solutions and the facets of kaolinite plays an important role in a wide range of technological applications including tribology, paper production, oil recovery, waste water treatment … Continue reading Local probing of the nanoscale hydration landscape of kaolinite basal facets in the presence of ions
