 Clay - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Clay is a term used to describe a group of hydrous aluminium phyllosilicate (phyllosilicates being a subgroup of silicate minerals) minerals (see clay minerals), that are typically less than 2 μm (micrometres) in diameter.
Clays are distinguished from other small particles present in soils such as silt by their small size, flake or layered shape, affinity for water and high plasticity index.
Clays sintered in fire were the first ceramic, and remain one of the cheapest to produce and most widely used materials even in the present day.
