N2  - The adsorption of oxamyl under variable conditions of time, pH and exchangeable cations on montmorillonites has been examined. Kinetic studies showed the reaction to be first order, which indicates diffusion-controlled adsorption. All the evidence obtained by studies of the effect of pH, adsorption isotherms, considerations of the chemical structure of the molecule, and X-ray diffraction and infrared spectroscopy points to a reaction mechanism for oxamyl association with acid- and base-saturated montmorillonites which involves either protonation or coordination of the exchangeable clay cations to the carbonyl of the amide group.
