Abstract

In phyllosilicate minerals, specially in fine-grained clay minerals, it is well known that interstratification is formed among two or more kinds of clay minerals being elementary component layers. The interstratification can be described by using the statistical theory and analysed with the XPD theory concerning one-dimensionally disordered crystals. Recently, the interpretation of the interstratified structure of clay minerals has attracted special interest in crystallographical and geochemical fields. This text gives an interpretation to the Interstratified structure and points at geochemical interest focusing to the crystallochemical problem of interstratified clay minerals.
