Abstract: | Three types of layered silicates, namely octosilicate, magadiite and kenyaite, were synthesized using poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG). The influence of reaction parameters, including alkali source, silica source, PEG molecular weight, reaction time and temperature, on the formation of these three phases was investigated. The results indicate that magadiite is preferred when (i) using NaOH as the alkali source and at a lower temperature (150°C), with fumed silica, tetramethyl orthosilicate (TMOS), tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS), Ludox-AS 40 or colloidal sol acting as the silica source in the presence of PEG 200; (ii) using fumed silica as the silica source and PEG 300 as the template at 150°C; (iii) at a higher temperature (180°C), using PEG 200 as template and TEOS as the silica source; and (iv) at 180°C with a combination of PEG 300 and fumed silica. Compared to magadiite, kenyaite was favored at a higher temperature (180°C) with PEG 200 and NaOH, KOH or RbOH, while using fumed silica, silica gel, or colloidal sol as silica source; or at the lower temperature (150°C) using NaOH as alkali source, PEG 200 as template, and silica gel or silicic acid as the silica source. Octosilicate was obtained at 90°C with the combination of NaOH, PEG 200 and fumed silica. |
