The Swelling of Clays: Molecular Simulations of the Hydration of Montmorillonite
Open accessAbstract
The swelling of clay minerals on contact with an aqueous solution can produce strong adverse effects in the exploration and production of gas and oil. Molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo simulations were used to study the mechanism of swelling of sodium-montmorillonite. The simulations showed that the abundant clay mineral has four stable states at basal spacings of 9.7, 12.0, 15.5, and 18.3 angstroms, respectively. The amount of swelling and the locations of the stable states of sodium-montmorillonite are in good quantitative agreement with the experimental data.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
