Abstract

Synthesis and characterization TiO2 pillared deoiled spent bleaching clay (DSBC) with rarasaponin as surfactant had been done. Activation DSBC have been done with H2SO4 1N, followed by pillarization with TiO2 using rarasaponin as surfactant. Characterization has done with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy showed the rarasaponin as surfactant was successfully carried out in DSBC with the presence of absorption peak C=O stretching group in a sharp 1720.50 cm-1 wavelength range. As well as the C-CH2 stretching uptake peak is represented on wave number 1462.04 cm−1 and 1033,85 cm−1 for aromatic functional group C=C stretching. After pillared by TiO2, the XRD pattern on DSBC showed new peak appears on 2θ = 27,4460° 36,0850° and 55,3216° and the mineral contain on DSBC is rectorite with dioctahedral mica layer and dioctahedral smectite with ratio 2:1. This molecule have formula Na.Al4(Si, Al)8.O20.(OH)4. H2O. Crystallinty of pillared clay showed 72,5014 % after calcination and there is some Ti suspected on the layer based on SEM.
