Shear Strength Correlations for Kaolin/Water Slurries: A …

Four kaolin/water mixtures were obtained by PNNL from FAI. The shear strengths of these mixtures were measured, and a correlation was developed relating shear strength and wt% clay. This correlation is needed to estimate the shear strengths of specific kaolin/water mixtures used in the vessel-spanning bubble tests.

The kaolin clay slurry is divided into test samples of 3 gallons each, and the samples are heated in a Parr reactor, at 15 psi pressure, for 15 minutes at either 93° C. or 104° C. After heating, the samples are cooled to 35° C. After the samples cool to 35° C., the microbiocide of choice is immediately added.

Structural recovery behaviour of kaolin, bentonite and K

Kaolin clay slurries were not found to display significant time-dependent behaviour. In contrast bentonite and K-montmorillonite clay slurries showed very pronounced time-dependent behaviour, where the yield stress increases significantly with time of aging. The Nguyen–Boger and Leong models were used to describe the structural recovery ...

Overview of the Rheological Behaviour of Ceramic Slurries

Clay and water mixtures, if mixed in 5:1 w/w ratio, form a plastic paste; subsequent water additions, in order to achieve 3:1 and 1:1 w/w ratios, produce collo– idal suspensions. Water molecules act like dipoles and therefore exhibit strong electrostatic interactions with clay and kaolin particles [14-16]. Clay/kaolin and water
