Structural Analysis of Interstratified Illite-Smectite by the Rietveld Method

Rietveld method is a powerful tool in obtaining structural information of clay minerals by using of X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns. However, the interstratified illite-smectites (I-S) show various stacking defects preventing the direct application of this method. It was shown that the Rietveld met...
