Acid activation is a common chemical modification of clays, usually bentonites, with a hot solution of a mineral acid (typically HCl or H 2 SO 4), and it is used for both scientific and industrial purposes. The aim is to obtain partly dissolved material of increased specific surface area, porosity and surface acidity. The product consists
19/04/2018· Influence of Si/Al ratio on bentonite specific surface area (a) FTIR analysis of acid activated bentonite samples revealed a marked decrease in the intensity of the absorption band at 3623 cm −1. This was attributed to a depletion of AlOH stretching vibrations, as a result of dealumination upon acid attack , , . Bentonite dealumination was also reflected by the disappearance, after acid

17/12/2018· Compared with natural bentonite, acid-activated bentonite displayed about 38–51% larger surface area (Table 1). It can be deduced from the BET data tabulated in Table 1, that the activation of bentonite with 5 N solution of H 2 SO 4 triggered the largest surface area. In another word, increasing acid concentration from 3 to 5 N had a positive

Bentonite has been successfully activated using hydrochloric acid, as shown by FTIR, XRD, and TGA studies, in addition to an increase in its surface area. Acid activated bentonite shows a great potential for the removal of heavy metal ions and phenolic compounds pollutants. Results show that percentage uptakes exceed 99% for Zn, Fe, and Mn ions. According to phenolic compounds, adsorption
10/06/2020· Acid activation technique was opted for modifying natural bentonite (NB) to enhance the adsorptive removal of CIP from water. The BET surface area analysis revealed that acid-activated bentonite (AAB) possessed more than two fold higher surface area as compared to NB. Combining pHzpc measurements, effect of solution pH and CIP speciation
The acid activated bentonite within the receiver layer reacts as a colour developer to a coloured final stage. Even small quantities of coating-bentonites provide a good coverage of paper surface. In coating formulations binder content can be reduced and the production of paper qualities for various printing methods is possible. Fast running paper machines require micro particle systems in
The purified bentonite exhibited a surface area of 130 m 2 g À1 which increased to values as high as 500 m 2 g À1 following activation with 4M HCl at 95 8C for 30 min (SD-4M-95-30). The ability
Acid-activated clays are the most common bleaching agents for vegetal oils. Among them, activated bentonites are regarded in bleaching industries as references for removing chlorophyll, carotenoids, phospholipids, metals and oxidation products from oils. So far, the removal of these constituents has been explained only in terms of adsorption (Kheok and Lim, 1982; Taylor et al., 1989), but the

25/08/2013· Since acid-activated bentonites have more ability to bleach coloring low density and high surface area, which consists essentially of amorphous silica (SiO 2 ·nH 2 O). It is thus, an alternative material to other sorbents in processes such as wastewater treatment, in the removal of heavy metals such as Pb 2+, Cd 2+, Zn 2+ and Cu 2+.
