Adsorption Studies on Clay Minerals. IV. The System Montmorillonite-Cesium-Potassium

Abstract
The ion‐exchange equilibria between a montmorillonite clay and potassium‐cesium from chloride solutions have been studied by chromatographic and other methods. The results are summarized in terms of equilibrium constants and activity coefficients for the mixed clay phase. A tentative discussion is given of the rate of the exchange process, particularly as it affects the behavior of the chromatographic columns.
