Amphiphilic layered silicate clay for the efficient removal of organic pollutants from water

An amphiphilic smectite clay, interlayered by regularly alternating galleries of organic [CHN(CH)] and inorganic (Li ) exchange cations, is shown to be especially efficient for the removal of a chlorinated aromatic pollutant (2,4-dichlorophenol) from water in comparison to the fully-exchanged hydrop...

Summary:An amphiphilic smectite clay, interlayered by regularly alternating galleries of organic [CHN(CH)] and inorganic (Li ) exchange cations, is shown to be especially efficient for the removal of a chlorinated aromatic pollutant (2,4-dichlorophenol) from water in comparison to the fully-exchanged hydrophobic form of the same clay.
