Characterisation of Clays from South Indian Soils - III Titration Curves (Electrometric method)

Abstract

Eight soil samples roprosenting the four major soil types of South India were studied for their electrochemical properties (titration curves) and from the available data it could be concluded that the black and Intorito soils contain montmorillonito and kaolinite as dominant elay minerals, respectively, and the alluvial soil a mixture of clay minerals. The red soil from Semmanguliyur may contain knolinite as the dominant elay mineral and the red soil from Poolamedu a mixture of clay minerals.
