Table 1.

The values of 2θ angle and corresponding calculated d-spacing values for bentonite clay particles after their activation in water and middle fraction of the dispersion of bentonite clay/GEO particles.

Sample 2θ
(Degree)
d-Spacing
(Å)
Δ d-Spacing
(Å)
Activated bentonite clay 19.9 4.52 0.16
29.0 3.18 0.09
35.0 2.68 0.08
43.3 2.25 0.10
Middle fraction 19.8 4.55 0.19
28.8 3.20 0.11
35.0 2.68 0.08
42.9 2.26 0.11

Δ d-spacing = d-spacing of the sample − d-spacing value from literature [44,51].
