Abstract

A comparison has been made of the intercalation capacity of the stearate anions into the two different anionic clays: magnesium aluminum layered double hydroxide (Mg3Al LDH) and zinc aluminum layered double hydroxide (Zn3Al LDH). The anionic clays Mg3Al LDH and Zn3Al LDH were firstly prepared by co-precipitation method from nitrate salts solution and then modified by stearate anions through an ion exchange reaction. The properties, morphologies and ion exchange ability of these two clays have been studied by XRD, TGA, SEM, TEM and CHNS that show the ability of Zn3Al LDH to capture stearate anions is greater than Mg3Al LDH.
