It could be concluded that the fixation capacity is determined by the total amount of interlayer charge originating from both octahedral and tetrahedral sheets. The relationship between interlayer cation fixation and octahedral structure of the secondary minerals may be different from that of the primary minerals. The oxidation and reduction of cations with variable valence can greatly influence the cation-fixation capacity.展开更多
