Abstract

Hydrotalcites are mineral anion exchangers whose exchange capacity is determined by the amount of structural magnesium atoms (octahedrally coordinated) substituted by aluminium atoms. In this work we study the synthesis of hydrotalcites using a domestic microwave oven at room pressure. The effect of the oven power on the composition and on the resulting structure of two hydrotalcites differing on their nominal Al/Al+Mg ratio is presented.
