Abstract The dehydration and dehydroxylation of the smectites, beidellite and montmorillonite (dioctahedral) and saponite and laponite (trioctahedral), were investigated by ETA, DTA, TG and X-ray diffractions. There are differences between the behaviors of di- and trioctahedral clays which are due to the differences in the ability of the exchangeable cations to migrate into hexagonal holes of the SiO4 network and due to the fact that the dehydroxylation and recrystallization of dehydroxylated trioctahedral smectites occur simultaneously, whereas there is a temperature gap of about 300°C between the dehydroxylation and the recrystallization of dioctahedral smectites.
