argilla

Also known as baked clay, potter's clay

composto di roccia spesso usato in scultura e per costruzione utensili

AI overview

Clay is a fine-grained natural soil material made up of clay minerals, which are compounds containing aluminum, silicon, oxygen, and water; while pure clay minerals are typically white or light-colored, natural clays often appear in various colors like red or brown due to impurities such as iron oxide. Clay matters because its unique mineral composition and fine texture make it useful for various applications, from pottery and construction to industrial processes.

Argilla è il termine che definisce un sedimento non litificato estremamente fine (le dimensioni dei granelli sono inferiori a 2 μm di diametro) costituito principalmente da alluminosilicati idrati appartenenti alla classe dei fillosilicati. I minerali che compongono l'argilla sono tutti appartenenti alla sottoclasse dei fillosilicati e definiti collettivamente minerali argillosi.
