Methylene-Functionalize Saponite: A New Type of Organoclay with CH(2) Groups Substituting for Bridging Oxygen Centers in the Tetrahedral Sheet
{{output}}
The synthesis of saponite in the presence of bis(triethoxysilyl)methane (BTESM) as an organosilicon reagent results in the replacement of up to 33.3 % of the oxygen atoms in the tetrahedral sheet by bridging methylene groups. The methylene-functionalized sapon... ...
