Liquid Limit Of Clay. The precise definition of the liquid limit is based on standard. The slope of the flow curve is determined, which gives the flow index.
Clay mineral liquid limit (% water) plastic limit (% water) shrinkage limit (% water) montmorillonite: Generally, the higher the liquid limit of a clay, the more compressible it will be and at the same liquid limit, the higher the plasticity index, the more cohesive the clay. Generally the liquid limit of fen peat according to hobbs, ranges from 200 to 600% and bog.
