Clay-Organic Complexes as Adsorbents for Phenol and Chlorophenols

Mortland, Max M., Shaobai, Sun, Boyd, Stephen A.·1986·Clays and Clay Minerals

Abstract

Several clay-organic complexes were synthesized by placing quaternary ammonium cations on smectite by cation exchange. They were then examined for their ability to adsorb phenol and several of its chlorinated congeners. The organic cations used were: hexadecylpyridinium (HDPY+), hexadecyltri-methyl ammonium (HDTMA+), trimethylphenyl ammonium (TMPA), and tetramethylammonium (TMA+). The complexes containing long-chain alkyl (hexadecyl) groups were the most hydrophobic and adsorbed the phenols from water in proportion to their hydrophobicities, which increase with chlorine addition (phenol < chlorophenol < dichloropohenol < trichlorophenol). With n-hexane as the solvent, different adsorption was found which depended on the type and degree of solvent interactions with the compound and the clay-organic complex. Thus, the amount of adsorption of these phenols on clay-organic complexes was dependent on the relative energies of adsorbent-adsorbate and adsorbate-solvent interactions.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
