Measurement of shear strength, plasticity and water retention of clays related to interparticle forces
Measured shear strengths of pure clays are interpreted on basis of forces required to move particles in failure plane; for montmorillonite this movement is resisted by interparticle repulsion; for kaolinite forces of attraction depending upon acidity and salt concentration are important; for clays which on drying shrink, with no increase in air-filled voids, water is retained by same forces which cause swelling.
