by Duane M. Moore
Used as a reference by both researchers and workers in the industry, X-Ray Diffraction and the Identification and Analysis of Clay Minerals, now in its newly revised second edition, explores the applications and limitations of data produced by the interaction of X-rays with crystalline minerals, adding two completely new chapters on disordered polytypes using X-Ray powder diffraction, and clay minerals in soils. Essential in agriculture and in making informed engineering decisions, this book offers the necessary knowledge of the properties of these minerals, combining theoretical discussion with recipe-like directions.
