On the Mechanisms Leading to Exfoliated Nanocomposites Prepared by Mixing
TL;DR: In this paper, four specific interactions (ionic, ion-dipole, hydrogen bonding, and coulombic) are illustrated to demonstrate the effectiveness of offering strong attractive interactions between the clay surface (with or without chemical modifications) and the polymer matrix in the preparation of exfoliated nanocomposites based on thermplastic polymers or thermoplastic elastomers by mixing.

Organo Modified Nanoclay/Sawdust Mixtures for Hydrocarbon Removal from Water
TL;DR: In this paper, an organic modified nanoclay (OMNC) and OMNC/sawdust mixture were applied for hydrocarbon removal from water. But the results revealed that the OMNC adsorbed gasoline and diesel 3 times more than its weight and about 2 times for lub.

Clay mineral catalysts
TL;DR: Montmorillonite is considered to be an excellent catalyst, right from the catalysed formation of biopolymers of the first life, to the formation of nanoporous heterogeneous catalysts with high activity and selectivity as mentioned in this paper.

Incorporation of Pure Fullerene into Organoclays: Towards C60‐Pillared Clay Structures
Theodoros Tsoufis,Vasileios Georgakilas,Xiaoxing Ke,Gustaaf Van Tendeloo,Petra Rudolf,Dimitrios Gournis +5 more
TL;DR: The reported fullerene-pillared clay structures constitute a new hybrid system with very promising potential for the use in areas such as gas storage and/or gas separation due to their high surface area.
