The goal of this project is to study mixed layering in partially                dydrated kaolinites and halloysites.  These are minerals in the                 clay family.  Synthetic kaolinite will be exposed to the                        atmosphere for varying lengths of time to cause hydration, the                  samples will then be sealed with a thin film of plastic, and x-ray              diffraction measurements will be made.  Similar procedures will be              used for halloysite.  The major question to be answered is whether              halloysite can transform into kaolinite by simple dehydration.                  These clays are important in many manufacturing processes and in                the isolation of hazardous waste.
