Intercalation Reaction of Carbonate MgAl-layered Double Hydroxide Using Alcohol as Solvent
We succeeded in the first direct intercalation of an organic compound into carbonate layered double hydroxide (LDH) by using alcohol as the solvent at 50 degrees C. Furthermore, carbonate ion in carbonate LDH was easily exchanged with chloride or nitrate ion in methanol.
