Abstract

Mix Aluminium-Iron (80:20) pillared clay was prepared through pillarization method, after purification using standard method to reduce the amount of Quartz present. The procedures involved were purification, preparation of the pillaring solution, hydration of parent clay, calcinations, intercalation of Aluninium and Iron metal oxides as pillars. BET N2 absorption technique was employed in order to determine the surface area, pore volume and micropore volume which was found to be 6.929 (Ã…) 139.669 m2/g, 0.057 cc/g, 0.074 cc/g, respectively. The XRD analysis was also carried out to determine the minerals obtainable in the sample, which montmorillonite (Na,Mg and AlO3) and Quartz peak were observed at a relative intensity of 49.15 and 100% with d-spacing of 0.3073(Ã…) and 0.1023(Ã…) respectively.
