Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

According to the results of chemical composition,scanning electron microscope,X-ray powder diffraction,infrared spectra and thermogravimetry analysis,the mineralogical characteristics of palygorskite from Xuyi,Jiangsu province are studied in this paper. It shows that the crystal shapes assume fibrous, acicular and rod forms,and the aggregates vary greatly in shape. This kind of palygorskite belongs to monoclinic system. Its ordering degree is lower. Its morphological and physical features are somewhat different from the features of hydrothermal palygorskite from Quanjiao, Anhui province.
