In this study,iron speciation in five standard clay samples was characterized.Iron mobilization from these clays was then measured in acidic media.For comparison,a commercially available Arizona test dust (ATD) was also observed.The results showed that the free-Fe contents of clays were commonly lower than that of dust aerosols.The components of clays were dominant,by the structural Fe held in the aluminosilicate lattice.The iron solubility of the clays were in the order of KGa-2 ＞ SWy-2 ＞ CCa-2 ＞ IMt-2 ＞ NAu-2.Based upon the M(o)ssbauer spectrum and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis,the Fe(Ⅱ) fraction and the Fe/Si ratio of clay particles changed after dissolution,suggesting the total Fe solubility depended on.the Fe atom states existing within the aluminosilicate lattice.The Fe in KGa-2 and SWy-2 was most likely substituted for alkaline elements as the interlayer ions held by ionic bonds in the aluminosilicate,which are more liable to dissolution.However,the Fe in NAu-2 was more likely to be bound by strong covalent bonds in aluminosilicate mineral,which is less soluble.The much highly soluble Fe in ATD was not only linked to the dissolution of an appreciable fraction of Fe(Ⅱ),but also could be attributed to the fact that the Fe bonds in the clay fraction of ATD were mainly present as ionic bonds.The TEM images showed that reacted clay particles displayed less aggregate particles,with nanoparticle aggregates and the Fe/S-rich tiny particles attached to the remains.
