Imogolite is an aluminosilicate mineral originally found in volcanic ash derived soils.
Through the use of chemical synthesis methods this mineral has been successfully …

This study aims to understand how properties of modified aluminosilicate geomaterials
influence the antibacterial performance of nanocomposites when prepared with bimetallic …

Due to its layered structure, layered double hydroxides (LDHs) generally prefer to form
either “sand rose” or platelet-like morphologies. To the best of our knowledge, nano-sized …

Contamination of water bodies with heavy metals poses a significant threat to human health
and the environment, requiring the development of effective treatment techniques. In this …

Novel thin film nanocomposite (TFN) membranes were fabricated by interfacial
polymerization on imogolite nanotubes (INTs) blended substrates for the forward osmosis …

Imogolite nanotubes (INTs) were synthesized from tetraethoxysilane, aluminum nitrate
nonahydrate, and ammonia solution by the method of Arancibia-Miranda, and their …

It is known that silicon can be successfully replaced by germanium atoms in the synthesis of
imogolite nanotubes, leading to shorter and larger AlGe nanotubes. Beside the change in …

Imogolite and magnetic imogolite-Fe oxide nanocomposites (Imo-Fe 50 and Imo-Fe 25, at
50 and 25% Fe loading (w/w), respectively) were synthesized and tested for the removal of …

Abstract Hypothesis Imogolite nanotubes (INTs) are unique anisometric particles with
monodisperse nanometric diameters. Aluminogermanate double-walled INTs (Ge-DWINTs) …

Hypothesis Synthetic imogolite nanotubes form stable colloidal dispersions that may also
exhibit a rich liquid-crystalline phase behavior according to the nanotube length to diameter …
