The NH4+–N adsorption performance regulated by the external surface of water storage clay: Particle size effect and path analysis
) is the main parameter influencing the adsorption capacity. The particle size indirectly regulates the adsorption performance through the volume specific surface area and the mass specific surface area. This study provides a theoretical basis and quantitative support for the application of water storage clay in agricultural nitrogen management.
