Clay minerals need to be dispersed with blungers before their utilization in the related industries due plastic properties, and size reduction is carried out a wet medium. also contain impurities such as nonplastic materials structure. Mechanical dispersion parameters are important separation of clay group (halloysite kaolinite) from typical non-clayey gangue (quartz goethite). In this study, r...

The kinetics of photocatalytic degradation aniline, 2-chloroaniline, and 2,6-dichloroaniline in the presence halloysite-TiO2 halloysite-Fe2O3 nanocomposites, halloysite containing naturally dispersed TiO2, Fe2O3, commercial P25, ?-Fe2O3 photocatalysts, were investigated with two approaches: Langmuir–Hinshelwood first-order equations. Adsorption equilibrium constants adsorption enthalpies, photo...

Halloysite/Ag2O (Hal/Ag2O) nanomaterials were prepared by growing Ag2O nanoparticles on the surface of nanotubular halloysite using silver nitrate solution under alkaline conditions. The characterized X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and N2 adsorption. Good dispersion with average sizes 6.07 ± 2.5 nm 8.04 3.8 was achieved in when different concentrations alkali. ...

Halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) are a naturally-occurring aluminosilicate whose dimensions measure microns in length and tens of nanometers in diameter. Bonding defects between the alumina and silica lead to net negative and positive charges on the exterior and interior lumen, respectively. HNTs have been shown to enhance the material properties of polymer matrices and enable the sustained release ...
