Abstract
Hydrotalcite-like minerals, containing Mg2+-Al3+-Xn− (Xn− = NO3−, Cl−, SO42−, or CrO42−), Zn2+-Al3+-NO3−, or Zn2+-Cr3+-NO3− ions, were intercalated with Co(CN)63− by an anion exchange method. For most of the minerals examined, the degree of anion exchange was 79–90%. X-ray powder diffraction patterns of the ion-exchanged samples revealed two peaks at about 8° and 11°2θ (CuKα radiation) attributable to reflections from expanded and non-expanded interlayers, respectively. The intensity of the peak at about 8°2θ was a linear function of the degree of anion exchange. The amount of hexane adsorbed onto the anion-exchanged sample increased linearly with the increase in degree of anion exchange. From these results, anions near the edge of the interlayers appear to have been preferentially replaced by Co(CN)63− at a low degree of anion exchange, whereas those at some distance from the edge were replaced only at a high degree of anion exchange. The adsorption capacity of the Co(CN)63−-exchanged sample for hydrocarbons was: hexane ≃ 2-methylpentane ≫ cyclohexane > methylcyclohexane. The adsorption of chain hydrocarbons and cyclic hydrocarbons was different.
