Two classes of clays are known [3] (i) cationic clays (or clay minerals) that have negatively charged alumino-silicate layers balanced by small cations in the interlayer space (e.g. K-10 montmorillonite) and (ii) anionic clays which have positively charged brucite-type metal hydroxide layers balanced by anions and water molecules located interstitially (e.g. hydrotalcite, Mg6Al2(0H)igC034H20.

New developments in the use of silicates to improve flame retardancy have arisen from the use of synthetic anionic clays that correspond to the family of lamellar mixed metal hydroxides, commonly named layered double hydroxides (LDH) or hydrotalcite-like compounds.17... 

Hydrotalcite (HT) is a clay mineral which on crushing becomes a fine powder, similar to talc. It is a hy-droxycarbonate of Mg and A1, of the general formula Mg6Al2(0H)i6C03 - 4H20, and occurs in nature in foliated and controlled plates and/or fibrous masses. Anionic clays of the HT type have been of importance in catalysis since 1970. Their interesting properties for catalytic applications are ...

Anionic clays are natural or synthetic lamellar mixed hydroxides with interlayer spaces containing exchangeable anions [10, 104]. The generic terms, layered double hydroxides (LDHs) or hydrotalcites are widely used, the latter because exten-... 

Another important group of catalytic compounds contain the layered double hydroxides (sometimes called anionic clays or hydrotalcites ). Presently, many researchers study these materials because of their adsorptive and catalytic properties. 

Flash vacuum pyrolysis (FVP) reactions of pyrazole itself and DPP 63 were investigated in the presence of anionic clays having a hydrotalcite structure <2001JOG2943, 2002JOG8147>. Solid catalysts with Mg Al ratio equal to 2 1 containing carbonate, nitrate, and silicate as interlayer anions were employed. Between 400 and 600 °G, compound 1... 

Hydrotalcites (HT) belongs to the class of anionic clay minerals, also known as layered double hydroxides (LDHs). They are probably one of the best known and used solid basic catalyst [212[. Their properties in catalytic organic reactions have been discussed extensively by Jacobs et al. [256[. More recent aspects have been analyzed briefly also... 

To set up a more environmentally friendly process, it is mandatory to replace the caustic soda by solid bases. Many catalysts such as zeolites [2], alumina [3,4], sepiolite [5] and hydrotalcites [6,7] have been regarded as promising solid basic materials. Hydrotalcites, which are anionic clays, are the subject of this investigation. They are layered double hydroxides with the general formula [M(II)i.xM(III)x(0H)2].[A" x/n].mH20. The host layers are charged positively by replacement of divalent metal cations usually Mg ", Ni and... 

Magnesium-aluminium hydrotaldte is a naturally occurring anionic clay that decomposes reversibly upon calcination at high temperatures to form high surface area basic mixed oxide. To generate the hydrotalcite structure, Al cations replace...
