The Influence of Mixing Orders on the Microstructure of Artificially Prepared Sand-Clay Mixtures
The mixing order of silica sand, clay (kaolinite), and water controls the microstructure of resulting artificial soil samples. Most homogeneous microstructures can be achieved by applying the mixing order “sand-water-clay.” The following methods were used to validate this statement: (1) optical obse...
