Applications of clays in nanocomposites and ceramics [PDF]
Clays and clay minerals are common natural materials, the unique properties of which have attracted the interest of the industry, especially because these materials are easily available, cheap, and non-toxic.

ABSTRACT Fines migration induced by low salinity water flooding severely impairs reservoir permeability and injectivity presenting a critical challenge in enhanced oil recovery. This study aims to synthesize and evaluate a surface‐modified polymer‐silica nanocomposite to mitigate clay mobilization and preserve the hydrodynamic capacity of porous media.

Dicarboxymethyl cellulose is incorporated, for the first time, into a polyethersulfone membrane. The functional membranes are prepared using dimethyl isosorbide through combined non‐solvent and vapor‐induced phase separation. The resulting membranes exhibit porous structures and protein‐retention potential, highlighting the potential of this cellulose ...

Environmental Interactions of Clays Clays and the Environment
Environmental Interactions of Clays is the companion volume of Bruce Velde's book on Origin and Mineralogy of Clays. In dealing with the role of clays in specific environmental issues, it is unique in its subject matter.

Zn/Al‐NO3 layered double hydroxide offers a low‐zinc alternative for sulfur vulcanization of nitrile rubber, reducing nominal zinc loading by an estimated 71%. Its potential as a vulcanization activator depends on the curing system: conventional curing preserves tensile strength despite slower kinetics, whereas efficient curing maintains comparable ...
