Publisher Summary This chapter describes layered double hydroxides. Among the group of
minerals referred to as nonsilicate oxides and hydroxides, the layered double hydroxides …

Mixed metal oxides derived from layered hydrotalcite (HT) materials are extensively used as
a potential catalyst and catalytic support in various organic transformations. Numerous such …

Focusing on layered compounds at the core of materials intercalation chemistry, this
reference comprehensively explores clays and other classes of materials exhibiting the …

We report the synthesis of pure and Fe-doped α-MnO 2 nanowires by a facile hydrothermal
method. The influence of iron with varying do** concentration on structural, optical and …

In this chapter we present an overview of what we regard as the most significant areas of
recent activity in layered double hydroxide chemistry, using documents known to us through …

Formation and interconversion of cobalt hydroxides have been investigated with XRD, FTIR,
and compositional analysis. Effects of addition time, aging time, and preparative atmosphere …

A series of Mg–Mn–Al ternary hydrotalcite-like layered double hydroxides (LDHs) with (Mg+
Mn)/Al atomic ratios of∼ 3 and Mg: Mn atomic ratios ranging from 3: 0 to 0: 3 were …

Monodispersed 5-nm Co3O4 nanocrystals are prepared by thermal decomposition, in long
carbon chain alcohols, of the intermediate product Co (NO3) 2⊙ 7C6H13OH, which is first …

The effect of trivalent cations on the performance of Mg‐M‐CO3 (M= Al, Fe, Ga, Mn) layered
double hydroxides (LDHs) for high‐temperature CO2 capture is systematically investigated …

Layered double hydroxides (LDH) containing Mg II, Fe III, and Al III in the brucite-like layers
and interlayer carbonate (with a constant M II/M III ratio but varying Al III/Fe III ratios) have …
