23 Jul Method of producing inorganic layered double hydroxides, novel inorganic layered double hydroxides and uses of the same
Abstract
Novel nanosized layered double hydroxide materials and a method of producing the same as well as uses of said material. The novel materials are uniform and have the general formula I [M2+1-xM3+x(OH)2][An-x/n.zH2O]I wherein M2+ is selected from Mg2+, Ca2+, Mn2+, Fe2+, Co2+, Ni2+, and Zn2+ M3+ is selected from Al3+, V3+, Cr3+, Fe3+, Co3+, Sc3+, Ga3+, and Y3+, An- stands for an anion, x stands for a value in the range from 0.2 to 0.33, n is an integer from 1 to 4 and z is an integer from 1 to 10. The particle size is less than 1 mum. The material can be used in heterogeneous catalysis in organic chemistry and petrochemistry, magnetic materials, pharmaceutical applications, electrode materials, tissue engineering, cosmetics, and dietary supplements.
