Abstract
Thermal analysis (TG, DTG) and infrared absorption spectra were used to study desorption of pyridine (py), 4-methylpyridine (4-Mepy) and 4-ethylpyridine (4-Etpy) from Ni(II)-exchanged montmorillonite (Ni-MMT). It is shown that the bonds between the derivatives of pyridine (R-py) and the montmorillonite exhibit predominantly Lewis acid character. The thermal stability of studied samples and the total amounts of R-py inserted in the porous structure of Ni-MMT increase in the following sequence: py/Ni-MMT<4-Mepy/Ni-MMT<4-Etpy/Ni-MMT, i. e. the influence of the substituent on the pyridine ring is evident.
