Zinc-aluminum-magnesium (ZAM) steel, with its superior corrosion resistance and mechanical properties, is progressively supplanting traditional galvanized steel and zinc-aluminum steel. In this study, a solution containing sodium carbonate-only was e...
The traditional methods for preparing magnesium aluminum layered double hydrotalcite (Mg2Al-CO3LDHs) in industry include coprecipitation and hydrothermal methods. Both these methods have the disadvantages of high preparation cost and complicated wate...
One of the current developments in drug research is the controlled release formulation of drugs, which can be released in a controlled manner at a specific target in the body. Due to the diverse physical and chemical properties of various drugs, a sm...
Structural hydroxide groups in layered magnesium–aluminum double hydroxides were partially replaced by fluoride ions. Fluorinated and fluorine-free materials were used as hosts for two dyes, carminic acid and hydroxyl naphthol blue, resulting i...
In the search for technologies and materials to improve the safety and efficacy of active ingredients used in treating diseases, layered double hydroxides (LDHs) have been proposed as drug carriers since they can enhance the effects of active ingredi...
Osteogenic and antibacterial abilities are the permanent pursuit of titanium (Ti)-based orthopedic implants. However, it is difficult to strike the right balance between these two properties. It has been proved that an appropriate alkaline microenvir...
Magnesium–aluminum (Mg-Al) and magnesium–aluminum–nickel (Mg-Al-Ni) layered double hydroxides (LDHs) were synthesized by the co-precipitation method. The adsorption process of Mn2+ from synthetic wastewater was investigated. Formati...
