Abstract

AbstractSedimentation rate characteristic and final sedimentation volume of four Indian china clays were studied. The clays could be grouped as flocculated and deflocculated. When the phenomenon was observed after adding some electrolyte, clear indications regarding the degree of base saturation and the degree of deflocculation were obtained. The results also provided a direct measure of the amount of alkali needed to obtain a deflocculated slip from those clays. The sedimentation volume method was found to be useful for the determination of b.e.c. of clays.
