Adsorption Characteristics of Bixin on Acid- and Alkali-Treated Kaolinite in Aprotic Solvents

open access: yesBioinorganic Chemistry and Applications, 2018
The adsorption of bixin in aprotic solvents onto acid- and alkali-treated kaolinite was investigated. Kaolinite was treated three times, for 6 h each, with 8 M HCl or 5 M KOH. The adsorbents were characterized by XRD, FT-IR, EDS, and BET-N2.

Synthesis of Patchy Particles at Phase Boundaries

open access: yesSmall Methods, EarlyView.
The various strategies employed for synthesizing complex multifunctional patchy particles are reviewed, with, as a guideline, the type of phase boundary (solid‐gas, liquid‐gas, solid‐liquid, and liquid‐liquid), that serves as the crucial ingredient for symmetry breaking.

Effect of functionalized kaolinite on the curing kinetics of cycloaliphatic epoxy/anhydride system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Silane grafted kaolinite (KGS) was prepared through grinding kaolinite and then grafting with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane. The influence of KGS on the curing kinetics of cycloaliphatic epoxy resin was studied by non-isothermal differential scanning ...

The effect of quartz content on the mechanochemical activation of kaolinite

open access: yes, 2001
The mechanochemical activation (dry grinding) causes destruction in the crystal structure of kaolinite by the rupture of the O–H, Al–OH, Al–O–Si, and Si–O bonds. The major mineral constituents of natural kaolins are kaolinite and quartz.
