Zinc–aluminum layered double hydroxides (ZnAl-LDHs) film is a typical effective corrosion resistant currently being explored. In this study, ZnAl-LDHs was prepared on magnesium alloys with different surface roughness by means of metallographic preparation combined the hydrothermal method. When Sa at minimum 0.094 μm, ZnAl-LDH films grew most intensely, reaching 3.8 μm in thickness static contac...

Mg-Al layered double hydroxides (LDHs) were applied to soils for controlling phosphorus (P) loss. The subsequent slow-release of immobilized P in LDHs-soil system is crucial its bioavailability crops. Saturated column experiments conducted investigate the influence carbonate and flow interruption (FI) on release retention phosphate results compared those obtained under bicarbonate or continuous...

The development of new or modified cementitious materials is an important part of existing strategies to improve performance and minimize life-cycle costs and to eliminate the CO2’s impact on durability. The high anion exchange capacity of layered double hydroxides (LDHs) materials makes their interlayer ion exchange by organic and inorganic anions versatile and easily achieved. LDH-like materi...

The intercalation of a drug active, perindopril, into Mg/Al-layered double hydroxide for the formation of a new nanocomposite, PMAE, was accomplished using a simple ion exchange technique. A relatively high loading percentage of perindopril of about 36.5% (w/w) indicates that intercalation of the active took place in the Mg/Al inorganic interlayer. Intercalation was further supported by Fourier...

A series of novel layered double hydroxides (Mg-Fe-Ti-LDHs) containing Mg2+, Fe3+ and Ti4+ were prepared. The adsorption performance Mg-Fe-Ti-LDHs on vanadate in aqueous solution was investigated the effects various factors process examined, including initial concentration, adsorbent dosage, contact time, pH coexisting ions. preliminary discussion mechanism also presented. Results show that eff...

Hydrophobic layered double hydroxide particles with a single layer structure have been successfully synthesised in a reverse microemulsion system; atomic force microscopy has proven a powerful tool for the study of these delicate nanoparticles.
