This mechanism provides a common explanation for the exfoliation of 'Vermiculite' by thermal methods or by treatment with H 2 O 2. Paradoxically, one sample which consists of pure vermiculite, in the mineralogical sense of the term, demonstrates that pure vermiculite does not and should not exhibit the property of exfoliation.
