Herein, the CoB catalyst supported on the sepiolite clay treated with phosphoric acid was utilized to produce hydrogen from the NaBH4 hydrolysis. In order to analyse the performance of the phosphoric acid treated sepiolite clay supported-CoB catalyst, the NaBH4 concentration effect, phosphoric a...detailed
A self-organization of sepiolite fibbers have been found during the synthesis of sustainable nanocomposites. These auto-structured networks are synthesized starting with an epoxidized linseed oil (ELO), a bio-based hardener of dicarboxylic class and sepiolite fibbers. For the first time, the aut...detailed
Poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) based nanocomposites with unmodified and organomodified sepiolites were prepared by solution casting method. The sepiolites were modified with short (3-mercaptopropyl)trimethoxysilane (SEP-SI) by using covalent grafting or with long hexadecylamine (SEP-HDA) by using i...detailed
As one of nature clay minerals, sepiolite was used in various fields, such as photocatalytic, refractory, and dye adsorption, but rare in superhydrophobic application. In this study, sepiolite was modified by polysiloxane ([email protected]) and its microstructure, chemical composition, and hydr...detailed
