This study investigated the adsorption kinetics of benzophenone-3 onto three different adsorbents in ethanol, finding that various models accurately described the adsorption process, indicating that adsorption involved multiple steps with different kinetically limiting factors.
This study is devoted to the experimental and the theoretical investigations of the adsorption kinetics of the benzophenone-3 (BZ-3) as a template molecule onto three adsorbents: lipophilic organosilicates (OSL), clay minerals LAPONITE (R) and montmorillonite (Mt) in ethanol. To elucidate the adsorption phenomena, kinetic behavior was analyzed with reaction-adsorption models in batch system such as pseudo-first-order (PFO), pseudo-second-order (PSO) and Elovich models. In the kinetic study, equilibrium was reached after 24 h and within 3 h. The adsorptive capacity was 291, 128 and 194 mg g(-1) for OSL, LAPONITE (R) and Mt., respectively. PSO model represented the experimental data with high precision for the three adsorbents. Weber-Morris (WM) model and surface diffusion adsorbed-model (SDM) were also used as mechanism models. The multilinearity shown with the WM model indicated that the adsorption phenomenon involved more than one step including surface diffusion of BZ-3 followed by pi-pi interaction between the aromatic nuclei of BZ-3 and the adsorbent. The organic molecule-adsorbent interaction was the kinetically limiting step in the case of OSL and Mt. while the surface diffusion was the kinetically limiting step in the case of LAPONITE (R). Numerical resolution of the ordinary (ODE) and partial (PDE) differential equations were determined for the PFO-PSO and SDM respectively to optimize the adsorption prediction.

Impacts of chemical pre-treatments on the hydrogen isotope composition of clay minerals: Determining potential effects in the absence of impurities
Nadine J. Kanik, Artur Kuligiewicz, Jeffrey T. Cullen
Summary: This study examined the effects of different pre-treatments on the structural H-isotope composition of clay minerals. The results showed that different pre-treatments had varied impacts on different clay minerals, and the choice of pre-treatment should be based on the specific properties and mineralogy of the samples.

Coating of silk sutures by Halloysite/wax Pickering emulsions for controlled delivery of eosin
Lorenzo Lisuzzo, Giuseppe Cavallaro, Stefana Milioto, Giuseppe Lazzara
Summary: This study proposes Pickering emulsions based on wax and halloysite clay nanotubes for coating silk sutures to increase their loading capacity towards eosin. The presence of halloysite/wax microspheres on the surface of silk sutures has also been explored for controlled release of hydrophobic drugs. The influence of the coating on the thermal and mechanical properties of the sutures has been studied using various techniques. In conclusion, the wax/halloysite Pickering emulsions can successfully generate hydrophobic microdomains on the surface of silk sutures, leading to enhanced flexibility and improved loading capacity towards eosin.

Polymer nanocomposites to modify crude oil waxy crystallization: Influence of content and type of clay (mineral)
Bruna F. Alves, Rita C. P. Nunes, Luiz C. Bertolino, Elizabete F. Lucas
Summary: Operational problems in the oil industry caused by the precipitation of paraffins can be prevented by using polymeric additives. This article evaluates the use of polymeric nanocomposites as pour point reducers in different types of crude oil and finds that they are more efficient than pure poly(ethylene-covinyl acetate) (EVA) in reducing the pour point. The nanocomposites also modify the wax crystals and reduce the viscosity of the oil samples.

Bentonite homogenisation and swelling: The effect of salinity
K. A. Daniels, C. C. Graham, A. C. Wiseall, J. F. Harrington, P. Sellin
Summary: Geological storage with clay buffer is widely preferred for removing hazardous radioactive waste. The impact of fluid salinity and void space on the swelling behavior of barrier bentonites was examined through experiments. The findings suggest that clay swelling is suppressed at higher salinities, which affects the void-filling process.

Summary: Thermal treatment of clay minerals can be used to produce building materials and environmentally friendly binders. This process involves dehydration, dehydroxylation, breakdown of structure, and recrystallization of high temperature phases. Rehydration and rehydroxylation are important factors to consider for geopolymers and SCM.

Preparation of a UV anti-aging and superhydrophobic self-cleaning coating by loading nano-rutile on sericite and being modified with HDTMS
Xuan Wang, Hao Ding, Zhuoqun Xu, Jianmeng Zhang, Yanbin Yao
Summary: Rutile nano-TiO2 was loaded onto the surface of sericite to prepare sericite-rutile composite particles, which were then modified with HDTMS and sprayed onto the substrates to form sericite-rutile/HDTMS composite coatings with UV shielding and superhydrophobic self-cleaning properties. The coating exhibited good UV shielding rate and remained superhydrophobic after UV irradiation. The hierarchical structure of the sericite-rutile composite and the low surface energy of HDTMS contributed to the superhydrophobicity and UV shielding effect of the coating.

Chitosan-Pd0 nanoparticles encapsulated in Al, Co-pillared montmorillonite by one-pot process
Kailang Sun, Taojun Zhang, Jie Zhou, Yonghong Liu, Minfeng Zeng, Zhen Yang, Ruokun Feng, Xiaorong Ren, Peng Zhang, Baoyi Wang, Xingzhong Cao
Summary: Chitosan-Pd0 nano particles encapsulated in Al, Co-pillared montmorillonite nanocomposites were successfully synthesized using a facile one-pot heat treatment method. The Al, Co pillaring effectively expanded the surface area and generated numerous mesopores in the interlayer space of the MMt. The resultant nanocomposite exhibited similar high comprehensive catalytic performances as the one prepared by the regular divided-multistep method. The encapsulation of CS chains and doping of Co in the Al pillaring also contributed to the improved catalytic performance.

Environmental significance of kaolinite variability over the last centuries in crater lake sediments from Central Mexico

Summary: Environmental conditions significantly influence clay minerals, and studying clay sediments in tropical lakes can provide valuable insights into past environmental conditions. In this study, multiproxy records from sediment cores of three crater lakes in central Mexico were analyzed. The results showed that disordered kaolinite, formed through hydrolysis and hydrothermal alteration, was the predominant mineral in the sediments. The abundance of kaolinite varied in relation to organic carbon and organic matter-related elements, and showed opposite trends with lithogenic elements. Geochemical data suggested that the increase in kaolinite abundance is linked to the formation of organo-mineral aggregates and lake level changes in closed basins.

A novel insight of interaction mechanism of carboxymethyl cellulose with talc surface: A combined molecular dynamic simulation and DFT investigation
Weiquan Zhan, Siyuan Yang, Shenxu Bao, Liuyi Ren, Cheng Liu
Summary: The interaction between talc and the depressor CMC was investigated through molecular dynamics simulation and density functional theory calculation. It was found that CMC showed stronger adsorption on the edge plane of talc due to enhanced interactions with polar groups and water molecules. The study also revealed specific interactions between H atoms in CMC and O atoms in the edge plane, as well as between O atoms in CMC and Si, Mg atoms in the edge plane. Hydration shells on the basal and edge planes of talc were examined to explain the phenomenon.
