The diffusion of water in the title intercalate has been measured by quasielastic neutron scattering. The diffusion coefficient (6.1 × 10−7 cm2 s−1 at 23.5°C) is one order less than that found previously for a sodium-exchanged montmorillonite which, however, contained 4 times as much water in the interlamellar space. The activation energy for the motion has been deduced to be 18 kJ mol−1. Also it has been demonstrated that upon the time scale of the neutron scattering events (faster than 10−9 s) the hydroxyl groups of the clay lattice are not in motion.
