Synthesis of indole derivatives was investigated and compared to the reaction of phenylhydrazine and ketones in the presence of the heterogeneous catalysts like kaolinite, montmorillonite K10 and Fe3O4 MNPs in ethanol under reflux conditions. After comparing the HPLC chromatogram of products it was compared and found that kaolin and montmorillonite K10 are better and more efficient candidate th...

Objective(s): The main aim of current research was to develop a novel magnetically responsive hydrogel by radical polymerization of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) on acryl amide (Am) using N,N'-methylene bis acrylamide  (MBA)  as a crosslinking agent, potassium persulfate (KPS) as a free radical initiator, and  magnetic montmorillonite ( mMT)  nanoclay as nano-...

This work describes the first hydrothermal synthesis in fluoride medium of Ni-Al montmorillonite-like phyllosilicates, in which the only metallic elements in the octahedral sheet are Ni and Al. X-ray diffraction, chemical analysis, thermogravimetric and differential thermal analysis, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy confirm that the synthesized samples are montm...

Abstract Magnetic-clay (MtMag) and magnetic-organoclay (O100MtMag) nanocomposites were synthesized, characterized evaluated for arsenic adsorption. Batch adsorption experiments performed varying pH conditions initial As(V) concentration, while successive cycles made in order to evaluate the materials reuse. The highest removal efficiency (9 ± 1 mg g?1 7.8 ± 0.8 mg g?1 MtMag O100MtMag, respectiv...

This work reports the behavior of montmorillonite–magnetite mixtures varying composition in aqueous dispersions and evaluates their adsorbing properties using a cationic organic pollutant, methylene blue (MB+), an anionic inorganic arsenate (As(V)), as species. The effects presence montmorillonite on As(V) adsorption by magnetite MB+ clay were specially addressed. simple mixture dispersion with...

The magnetic alignment of organically modified montmorillonite platelets in magnetic fields is studied using small-angle X-ray scattering. When suspended in non-mesogenic solvents such as dodecanol the platelets are found to align parallel to the magnetic field due to the negative anisotropy of the magnetic susceptibility of the montmorillonite. Alignment of the clay in the nematic phase of 5CB...

The thermal emission of alkali metal ions from Al30-pillared montmorillonite in comparison with its natural form was studied by mass spectrometry in the temperature range 770-930 K. The measurements were carried out on a magnetic mass spectrometer MI-1201. For natural montmorillonite, the densities of the emission currents (j) decrease in the mass spectrum in the following sequence (T = 805 K, ...

The ice nucleation characteristics of montmorillonite mineral dust aerosols with and without exposure to ammonia gas were measured at different atmospheric temperatures and relative humidities with a continuous flow diffusion chamber. The montmorillonite particles were exposed to pure (100%) and diluted ammonia gas (25 ppm) at room temperature in a stainless steel chamber. There was no signific...
