Abstract Sepiolite (Sep) and palygorskite (Pal) are naturally available one-dimensional (1D)
clay minerals. Their special pore structures, affluent surface groups, high specific surface …

Clay minerals with fibrous morphology, such as palygorskite, have been applied as
adsorbents to remove pollutants from the environment and reduce toxic compounds, such as …

Zeolite 13X was synthesized from palm oil mill fly ash (POMFA) using an alkaline fusion
method. A zeolite 13X yield of 85% was obtained at a mass ratio of NaOH/(SiO 2 and Al 2 O …

The content of heavy metals in the soil in Guizhou Province, which is a high-risk area for
heavy metal exposure, is significantly higher than that in other areas in China. Therefore, the …

This study investigated ZnO nanoparticles immobilized in palygorskite clay mineral (Pal) that
acted as an inorganic antimicrobial agent in a commercial mortar aiming to control …

Palygorskite, a fibrous clay mineral, exhibits excellent adsorbent properties. This study was
conducted to assess the potential activation of palygorskite and to obtain thermally activated …

nitrophenol (4-NP) is an environmental pollutant with high toxicity and strong stability, which
is difficult to degrade naturally. Reduction of 4-NP to 4-aminophenol (4-AP), an important …

This work deals with the synthesis of SiO2@ TiO2 supported palygorskite fibers and their
use as a filler for proton exchange membrane fuel cells in order to improve their …

Potential of the multi-dimensional nanoparticle (MDP) derived from oxalic acid (OA)-
leaching treatment of natural palygorskite-rich clay (PALC) as nanofiller to improve the …

Five palygorskite samples from different geological environments including lacustrine and
perimarine deposits and hydrothermal fillings were treated by a microwaveassisted acid …
