powder into the base liquid. • The bentonite particles must be reduced to their finest constituent parts to expose the maximum surface area to the surrounding liquid and activate the gelling effect. • A degree of shear is required to obtain functionality. • Vigorous in-tank movement must be maintained as the viscosity rises.

Influence of the temperature on the rheological properties of bentonite

In this paper, two fluids are considered: a 5% bentonite dispersion in a 1% w/w CMC LV water solution, named 1LVB5 and a 5% bentonite dispersion in a 0.5% w/w CMC HV water solution, named 0.5HVB5. The dispersions were carefully prepared according to procedures which had been defined in previous works and after an ageing …

Flocculation and Dispersion Phenomena in Soils

Flocculation – process during which particles, for example, of a soil, dispersed in a solution contact and adhere each another, forming clusters, flocks, flakes, or clumps of a larger size. The term originates from the word "floc," which is the flake of precipitate that comes out of solution. The floc may float to the top or settle to the bottom of the liquid, …
