Non-expansive 2:1 Clays ‣ the sheets or layers are held together strongly ‣ neither water nor a change in the interlayer cations causes them to swell ‣ Illites are one group of non-exp<strong>and</strong>able clays
Expansive 2:1 Clays ‣ Bound together by very weak hydrogen bounds (easily broken) ‣ Will swell upon wetting ‣ Smectites are one group of exp<strong>and</strong>able clays
