    Properties of layer silicate minerals are mainly controlled by structure factors, such as position of isomorphous substitution, elemental constituents, and amount of isomorphous substitution. Quantum chemical method allows us to understand the properties of layer silicate minerals on the basis of its electronic states. This method facilitates predictions on changes in the mineral properties due to the difference in a structure factor. A brief perspective on the application of quantum chemical method for layer silicate minerals is described.

    Sepiolite of Spanish origin contained both calcite and dolomite which were detected by X-ray diffraction, infrared spectroscopy and thermal gravimetry-diffrential thermal analysis. These impurities were eliminated by treating with the dilute hydrochloric acid aqueous solution (0.59mol/1) without the decomposition of sepiolite itself. The specific surface area increased by the elimination of the impurity with dilute hydrochloric acid.

    Six bentonite beds, called bed A-F, are mined in northern and western Black Hills district, Wyoming. Chemical composition and mineralogical properties of smectites from these bentonite beds have been studied by X-ray powder diffraction method, chemical analysis, differential thermal analysis and infrared spectroscopy. Sodium is dominant interlayer cation in the specimens from bentonite beds, C, D, E and F, though calcium is main exchange cation in the specimen from bentonite bed A. The structural formulae calculated from chemical composition show that smectites from the bed D and E are beidellite, and the others are montmorillonite. The temperature of dehydroxylation peak in DTA curves of all specimens are higher than that of Cheto montmorillonite. The strength of 840cm-1 absorption band in infrared spectra increases with the substitution of Mg for Al in the octahedral sheet. Greene-Kelly test and variation of basal spacings of Na-saturated specimens at various relative humidity indicate that these smectites except bed D are the mixture of phases containing various layer charge component.

    Chemical properties of smectites in concrete aggregates and its relation to the evaluation method of aggregate have been studied. Commonly many kind of volcanic rocks are utilized for concrete aggregate. Andesites collected from Kagawa and Saga Prefecture were investigated by polarizing microscope, electron microscope, XRD, DTA, EPMA and chemical analysis. It has been clear that plagioclase phenocrysts in andesites were often altered to smectite which was identified as beidellite by Greene-Kelly test. Alkali reactivity of aggregates was evaluated based on the correlation between dissolved silica (Sc) and reduction in alkalinity (Rc) estimated by conventional chemical method (ASTM C 289). Interlayer calcium and magmesium in smectite were completely exchanged for sodium in the sodium hydroxyde solution during this chemical test. Rc increases linearly in course of reaction time from 12 to 48 hours. We can obtain Rc0 value by extrapolating the temporal change curve of Rc to reaction time “0 hour”. It was found that Rc0 value approximates to total amount of exchangeable calcium and magnesium in samples. The result reveals that Rc0 value does not participate in alkali silica reactions, but is caused by cation exchange reactions of smectite, and that Rc0 in addition to Sc and Rc is important index for the evaluation of aggregates.
