Polar water molecules and dissociated H⁺ , OH⁻ ions which are bonded to the surfaces of kaolinite crystals represent the physically bonded water (PBW). The removal of PBW is completed at 360 ± 10°C. Above this temperature ac and de conductivities are mainly dependent on the motion of alkaline ions Na⁺ , K⁺ , Ca⁺⁺ until the constitution water begins to be removed (440-460°C). After thermal treatment at 550°C, the changes of conductivity in low temperature region were detected. It was caused by the water and OH⁻ ions which were released in the dehydroxylation and bonded on surface defects and free alkaline ions.
