Molecular dynamics simulation of interactions between clay minerals and a controlled organic phase

Engineered organoclays are 2:1 phyllosilicate soils that have been synthesized with a controlled interlayer organic phase to exhibit enhanced strength, lower compressibility, and stronger retention of organic compounds. Engineered organoclays are highly sorptive, and have a variety of potential engi...
