A Comparison Study of Magnetic Stirrer and Sonicator Technique to Disperse 1 Span20 Treated Layered Double Hydroxides(LDHs)

摘要

Effect of particle size reduction and dispersion of 2-dimensional material,layered double hydroxide(LDHs),prepared by co-precipitation method with the primary particle size of around 100 nm,was investigated.Two simple laboratory dispersing techniques including magnetic stirrer,and sonicator were applied to disperse agglomerated LDHs in 1 wt.% Span20 solution,act as a stabilizer.Magnetic stirrer showed a cluster of agglomerate particles with improved dispersion while,agglomerates with single stack LDHs were presence in case of sonicator product.
