The effect of temperature in the range 0-150°C was studied for homo-ionic montmorillonite clays with Na + and Cs + compensating ions in low hydration states. Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics simulations were employed to provide both static and dynamic information concerning the interlayer ions and...
