Adsorption of relatively high molecular weight non-ionic and anionic polyacrylamides on sodium kaolinite has been studied simultaneously with various flocculation responses (per cent solids settled, settling rate and supernatant clarity) under controlled conditions of ionic strength, temperature and agitation. Flocculation properties are correlated with polymer adsorption and particle zeta potential, and mechanisms of flocculation are examined as a function of the charge of the polymer and clay.
