Abstract
Zn,Al-CO3 compounds with the hydrotalcite-like (layered double hydroxide, LDH) structure were prepared by a co-precipitation method followed by hydrothermal treatment under microwave irradiation. The influence of the ageing treatment was studied in two series of samples with different Zn2+/Al3+ ratios, namely, 3/1 and 2/1. Moreover, the effects of the heating temperature and of the irradiation time were studied in order to select the optimum preparation conditions. The solids were fully characterised by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), Al-27 MAS-NMR, FT-IR spectroscopy, thermal analyses (DTA and TG), N-2 adsorption/desorption at -196 degrees C and TEM. The results showed that whatever the chemical composition of the starting mixture, HTlcs with Zn2+/Al3+ ratio equal to 2 were obtained, and it was impossible to overcome the ZnO segregation when the molar ratio was >2. These compounds were stable and their crystallinity could be quickly enhanced when the temperature treatment was 100 degrees C, whereas at 125 degrees C the ZnO segregation was not prevented.
