Kaolin or china clay is a mixture of different minerals. Its main component is kaolinite; in addition, it frequently contains quartz, mica, feldspar, illite, and montmorillonite. Kaolinite is made up of tiny sheets of triclinic crystals with pseudohexagonal morphology. It is formed by rock weathering.

Figure 2 shows that surface areas range from 8 to 27 m2/g, and the well-crystal- lized kaolins have a smaller surface area than the poorly crystallized kaolins. Again this correlation would be expected because the imperfectly stacked poorly crystallized kaolins would, of course, have more surface area than the well crystallized books of kaolin.
