Direct synthesis of a polyoxometallate-pillared layered double hydroxide by coprecipitation
Abstract
The Coprecipitation reaction of Zn2+ and Al3+ ions in moderately acidic α-[SiW11O39]8– solution directly affords a layered double hydroxide derivative with an approximate composition of [Zn24Al8(OH)64][α-SiW1lO39] and an exceptionally well-ordered gallery height of 9.8 Å.
