Ion Adsorption at Clay-Mineral Surfaces: The Hofmeister Series for Hydrated Smectite Minerals

Abstract: Many important properties of clay minerals are defined by the species of chargebalancing cation. Phenomena such as clay swelling and cation exchange depend upon the cation species present and it is therefore important to understand how the cations bind with the mineral surface at a fundamental level. In the present study, the binding affinities of several different charge-balancing cations with the basal surface of the smectite clay montmorillonite have been calculated using molecular dynamics in conjunction w… Show more

“…Na + is a strongly hydrated ion which has been observed to bind as an outer sphere complex on mica (Lee et al, 2012) compared to inner sphere adsorption of the native K + . It is not expected to bind as strongly to mica, or other clay minerals, as the native K + (Underwood et al, 2016) or the quaternary ammonium ions which formed the bilayer.…”

“…44 The result is surprising however, not only are sodium ions able to adsorb to the electronegative siloxane surface, but also the electropositive hydroxyl surface. The sodium adsorption to the hydroxyl surface may be ascribed to ionic interactions between cations and atoms further within the clay mineral, for example the gibbsite oxygens or aluminums, whilst the phenomenon may also be described by the presence of the negatively charged organic matter.…”

“…In this part, the other parameters were the same as the last step, but total simulation time was 600 ps, it was run to ensure that the system has reached equilibrium, and the final models were used for analysis [26,40]. During the simulation, the simple point charge (SPC) model was used to represent the interaction of H 2 O [41,42], in which the geometrical structure of these molecules is rigid, the bond length is 1.0 Å and bond angle is 109.5 • [43]. The CLAYFF force field which has been proved to work very well in previous simulation studies about MT was employed to describe the interatomic potential for Na-MT-water systems [44][45][46][47].…”
