Abstract

Magnesium–aluminium–bismuth-layered double hydroxides (LDH) intercalated with carbonate were studied in respect of maximal rate of substitution of Al3+ by Bi3+ for the first time. LDH with the nominal compositions of Mg3Al1 - x Bi x –CO3 (x = 0 to 0.5) were prepared using both the conventional super saturation co-precipitation method and sol–gel processing via hydration of the mixed oxide powders in carbonate-containing solutions. The mixed oxides were obtained either by calcination of the LDH (prepared by co-precipitation) or by using a novel alkoxide-free sol–gel method. All the LDH products were characterised using the methods of X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and thermogravimetry. The observed values of the lattice parameters of LDH phases were compared with the calculated values. It has been found that, regardless of the preparation method used and the conditions (pH, temperature, time) applied, the maximum rate of substitution of aluminium by bismuth in LDH is about 20 mol.%.
