Abstract

The chemical-mineral composition and morphological features of mineral nanoparticles of clay soils have been studied. In the clay soils of the Moscow moraine, nanoparticles are found to be localized in the surface microcavities of sand and silt grains covered with clay films. They have predominantly anisometric configurations and comprise mainly mixed-layered clay minerals and ferric oxides. The distinctive features of mineral nanoparticles are the high levels of specific surface and cation exchange capacity.
