Division/Committee: [GEOC] Division of Geochemistry

This symposium focuses on reactions and chemical species transport through the interlayers, at the basal surfaces or at edge site of clay minerals and other layered 2D geomaterials. The phenomena of interest include but not limited to intercalation of water, gases, ions, and organic molecules within the interlayer spaces, swelling/shrinking of layered materials, physical and chemical alterations of fluids confined within interlayers of 2D minerals, chemical transformations at the mineral-water interfaces, and stacking of layered materials. The symposium also focuses on the advancement in experimental and simulation techniques for understanding chemical phenomena in 2D minerals, including clay materials and other layered materials. This session seeks to highlight how recent advances in experimental and computational methods have shaped our current understanding of layered minerals and identify future advances that are needed to further develop this field.
