Abstract

We describe a novel post treatment for layered double hydroxide (LDH) materials using aqueous immiscible (AIM) solvents resulting in improved surface area and powder flow. The effect of solvent functional groups and structure are explored, aided by molecular dynamics simulation of AIM-LDH washing.
